If you combine just the 1st, 2nd, and 4th quarters of tonight’s basketball game, the Indiana Pacers scored 84 points and conceded 76. That’s great!
In the 3rd quarter, the Thunder dominated and outscored Indy 31-15. Ballgame.
That disastrous 3rd quarter was highlighted by a 24-0 Thunder run. Twenty Four to Zero. That’s the longest run in the NBA this season.
The Pacers missed 14 shots in a row during this run. Meanwhile, the Thunder made 9/15, including 4/6 from deep. Everything went right for one team and wrong for the other. It was the difference in the result.
