Thunder 131, Warriors 94: The Day After Report
Photo via OKCThunder.com On back-to-back nights, the Oklahoma City Thunder steamrolled an inferior opponent. Look, I enjoy a fun, close, competitive game as much as the next person, but I also find plenty of enjoyment when the Thunder just wreck an opponent.
I acknowledge that the Warriors were missing Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler III, De’Anthony Melton, and Jonathan Kuminga. That certainly contributed to the lopsided score.
Oklahoma City jumped on Golden State immediately, leading by 11 after the first quarter. In the second, the Warriors went on a 9-0 run to make the score 38-36, and millions of Thunder fans were like, "oh no, are we really going to let the Warriors hang around?"
