Offensive Inertia Leads to Thunder Steamroll – OKC 148, CLE 124

CLEVELAND – Russell Westbrook set up the pins, and his teammates knocked them all down.

Turns out that in Saturday afternoon’s 148-124 Thunder win over the Cleveland Cavaliers in a prestige national TV matinee, offense was the best defense, and that was the case very early on. In fact, the Thunder burst out of the gates with an 8-0 lead after its first four offensive possessions and never trailed the rest of the way. The initial burst was fueled by two Paul George free throws and six of Steven Adams’ 25 points, two on dishes from Westbrook and another on a put back.
