The Oklahoma City Thunder are incredibly good. Heading into tonight’s matchup, they were still seeking their statement game – the one that makes people say, “they’ve arrived.”
Don’t get me wrong. They’ve had a few great wins against the Minnesota Timberwolves and Denver Nuggets over the last few weeks. A win against the historically great at the peak of their powers, though, would be a special win.
They got it tonight, in a truly thrilling game of basketball between the two hottest teams in the league. The Thunder remained focused through an incredible Celtics run and got a tough win.
