The Golden State Warriors suffered a 6th consecutive loss, with Andrew Wiggins scoring 31 points against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Thunder displayed a strong performance, leading the game with a mature performance and a significant lead. The Warriors, led by Klay Thompson and Steph Curry, expressed urgency to halt the losing streak and avoid developing a losing mentality.
Portland's second wind was kinda short lived. OKC's lead up to 37, its largest of the night, with 3:53 3Q.
The score of the game at half is not too far off from the shooting percentages. Thunder have 76 on 71.8% shooting, Blazers have 43 on 38.1% shooting.
Lot of game left, but so far this is a helluva mature performance by the Thunder. OKC just flooring it on the second night of a back to back, leading Portland 64-36, 2:43 2Q.
With 4:23 to play in the second quarter: Thunder with 30 points in the paint, Blazers with 34 points.
Thunder out to an 11-2 lead after a little SLOB wizardry. Good start for OKC, which is always good to get before those back-to-back legs set in.
