So far 7 of 7 for the home teams. Only question left is whether the Pels can steal one from the Thunder without Zion?

Is anyone else watching this Pels at OKC game? Pels just took a 2 point lead with around 3:30 left in the game.

I honestly cannot decide if SGA or Tony Brother’s is the MVP of this game for the Thunder.

Both teams are playing horribly, kind of funny.

Tony was pretty good. Great home game for him.

The Pels had a chance but Tony did well and brought it home for OKC ;)

OKC has been winning so many close games all year. Their luck has to run out at some point. NOP wasted so many chances with unforced errors

It's only one game. SGA has been so consistent in making things happen all year with scoring, passing, and steals.

Okc played really bad. Doesn't really matter for us.

Pels got 11 more shot, they just couldn’t hit.

Thunder with 1 free throw for every 4.7 minutes played up until the 1 minute mark (47 mins played)
Then get 3 in the last minute for an astounding 1 free throw for every 20 seconds played.

I made a new stat that is meaningless.

Instead of a stat it should be a phenomenon. Call it the Brother’s effect. Or the OKC/LAL handicap.

They just missed shots because we let OKC foul them.
