The Thunder did it again. Shy Shai, Ajay, and JDub for the eighth straight game, they sonned another Eastern playoff team for an impressive road win with veteran, championship guile.
When falling behind 32-22 to open the game and letting a 25-point margin disappear down the stretch, Oklahoma City looked like a team badly missing its three best playmakers. But OKC escaped with its third straight victory thanks to just enough offense paired with their patented defense. They’re back in front of the Spurs and Pistons in the standings, and will hopefully get SGA back soon to protect their seeding the rest of the way.
