OKC has responded to adversity all season, they’ve gotten off the mat rather a lot after taking punches. This lead feels bigger than 7 for Indiana however it’s nonetheless simply 7. Successful ugly is best than shedding fairly. OKC can save its season with the following 12 minutes, SGA begins the 4th. – 10:45 PM

Pacers land again to again punches, to shut the second and begin the third. The Thunder need to dig in. SGA’s unreal mid-range baseline step again may do the trick of steadying issues for OKC. – 10:15 PM

Pacers shut the half with an 8-2 burst to guide after 1 and now after 2: 60-57.

Groups shot 30 FTAs mixed. – 9:52 PM

Clearly each stretch is necessary, however it’s a must to capitalize on this begin of the second quarter if you’re OKC. SGA sat earlier within the 1st to have the ability to begin the 2nd down 1, needs to be a run for the Thunder. – 9:14 PM
