The Run
Despite better effort than Monday night in Memphis, the first half against Indiana looked like much of the same from the Thunder — shooting 39 percent in the first two quarters to trail by nine at the halftime break. The Pacers pushed their lead to 11 early in the third quarter, and led 58-48 with 10:48 to go. With the Thunder looking destined for another disappointment, and fans inside Chesapeake Energy Arena growing audibly restless, something snapped and everything changed.
Over nearly the next seven minutes of game time, the Thunder went on the largest run in the NBA this season — outscoring Indiana 24-0 to turn a 10-point deficit into a 14-point lead with four minutes to go in the third.
