Such a weird, unexpected quarter...OkC caught up with us in fouls, rebounds, and turnovers! We have the lead only because of Julius and the defense on SGA.

Jaden took the first 2 shots of the game and then never got another one. He was great on D though.

DDV, Naz and NAW a combined 2 from 19 from the field.
And we are still up 4. I'll take that as a positive.
Bench was just brutal

This happens too damn often with NAW and DDV.

How do we not have a bigger lead. That's the biggest issue right now.

I know they need a narrative and it was a problem at the beginning and end of that half... BUT...
The entire ESPN halftime (and game broadcast) is about just how ridiculously sloppy the Wolves are.
Meanwhile, the timberwolves have exactly one more TO than OKC.

Their shooting was brutal. But they actually outscored OkC while they were out there because they (especially NAW and DiVo) played great defense and they mostly protected the ball. If they can progress to their mean in shooting, we have a good chance to steal game 1.

So obvious they prepared their comments during the first quarter and didn't bother to watch the second.

The difference being the Thunder turn them into points.
