Five observations from the Thunder's 103-98 loss to the Raptors

1. Late-half crumbling - With 5:11 left in the first half, the Thunder led by eight. OKC went into halftime trailing by one. With 5:13 left in the fourth quarter, the Thunder again led by eight. OKC lost by five. Combined those two stretches and the Thunder was outscored by 22. That's 10 crucial minutes that were just botched. The more memorable of those meltdowns, of course, came in the fourth quarter. In the final five minutes, the Thunder didn't make a field goal, missing all six of their shots. There were grumblings from fans about the isolation ball, the lack of movement and creativity.
