Hard to hold a team to 13 points under their average. The Spurs average 107 ppg yet the Thunder held them to only 94. They held the Spurs to 41% from the field and only 20% from the floor. Luckily their defense showed up and didn’t let the game get out of hand. 2) DefenseĪs stated above, it was an ugly game and that is mainly because the offense was very ugly. Especially considering how the starters lacked energy. Neither of those 2 had a spectacular numbers game but they likely don’t win this game if they don’t show up. Unlike Mike, it won’t show in the box score how well Ty and Kenrich played. The energy those two brought carried over into the 2nd half with Kenrich Williams who does all of the little things a team needs to succeed. Then Mike Muscala came in and took over scoring 14 points in 5 minutes to carry the offense.

It started with Ty Jerome who hit a late layup in the 4th and came in to start the second with more made buckets. Luckily, the bench came in and carry the load so the Spurs lead didn’t grow to 25+. The Thunder starters looked absolutely horrible to start the game and that’s putting it nicely. Here are the 3 things that went well for them. It was an ugly win but a win is for still a win. They once again got down big, 16 points to be exact, but as they have done for the most part of the short season so far, they came back and took care of business.
