The Oklahoma City Thunder earned a huge win over the Los Angeles Clippers at home, 121-113. In a key game for two teams jostling for playoff position — where a single loss could send you from home court advantage to almost out of it entirely — OKC’s defensive strategy, combined with solid bench play was the difference. The win gives the Thunder a season sweep over the Clips and damages their playoff outlook significantly.
The Clippers, on the 2nd night of a back-to-back after losing to the Houston Rockets yesterday, were seeking to regain their footing and started off strong.
