After setting the franchise record for the most made triples in the regular season finale, the OKC Thunder set the all-time playoff record for the worst 3-point percentage (minimum of 30 attempts) at 15.2 percent. Furthermore, Oklahoma City provided only the 10th instance in playoff history that a team failed to eclipse 20 percent when launching 30 plus treys.
Overall, the Thunder committed three fatal blunders in Game 1. Foremost, they gave up a staggering 39-points in the opening quarter, it appeared the Thunder were unprepared to play, the Blazers got anything and everything they desired in the opening period.
