I don't think OKC scores enough points to make up a 13 point differential

Great defensive quarter. Freak is incredible.

Really impressed with our defense. Even though they have shot poorly we have done a heck of a job

Thunder have absolutely no answer in the paint. Bucks need to keep exploiting that mismatch.

Still one quarter left, but Giannis really making an MVP case tonight. He's shown up SGA.

Even if they hit a bunch of threes here and win this kinda performance from OKC should make them nervous about not having enough offensively.
