The Thunder’s post-All-Star break has been not just a challenge, but a test of wills as concludes February with four consecutive foes that are currently slotted in the playoff picture. After an outrageous double-overtime victory over the Utah Jazz the Thunder has dropped a game to each of the Sacramento Kings and Denver Nuggets, with the Philadelphia 76ers coming into town for a second showdown this season.
The first matchup ended in thrilling fashion as the Thunder escaped Philadelphia with an unbelievable four-point play by Paul George and a tough defensive stand, but in order to maintain its stranglehold over the all-time series between the Thunder and 76ers, point guard Russell Westbrook wants to ensure his group emerges from the locker room with the right mentality before tip-off.
