Saturday’s game was a game of two halves with the Oklahoma City Thunder holding off the Minnesota Timberwolves’ 23-point rally to win 120-118.
In the first half, we saw the Thunder dominate Minnesota while playing beautiful basketball. The ball was flowing from one teammate to another and the Timberwolves could not keep up with the Thunder’s pace.
The second half was ugly; the offense devolved into a series of turnovers and bad shots. The Thunder were also atrocious defensively, the T-Wolves walked into too many good looks. The play in the second half was the complete opposite of the basketball that the Thunder played before the break.
