Thunder Journal Top 10: OKC Sweeps NOLA
The Oklahoma City Thunder are headed to the Western Conference Semifinals of the NBA Playoffs.
It’s the first time OKC has reached the second round since 2016. And we don’t talk about Bruno, Fight Club or the 2016 Thunder postseason, so let’s move on.
The Thunder swept the New Orleans Pelicans 4-0 by holding the Smoothie King residents to 92, 92, 85 and 89 points.
It’s only the second time OKC has ever swept a series. The other instance was the 2012 Finals team that blanked the Dallas Mavericks in the opening round.
