Hey, it’s been an impressive season to date for the OKC Thunder who’ve been humming along in a secure third place seeding in the West. The hopes were to finish on a high and take a five-game win streak into the All-Star break. Unfortunately, OKC came up just a bit short following a lapse to start the third quarter which allowed the Pelicans to gain enough of a lead to take the match.
The good news is the Thunder exited this match without any players getting seriously injured. That might seem like an alarmist’s attitude, but the last game prior to the All-Star break and the last game before Christmas are always the matches players tend to lose focus.
