Last night, the Thunder walked into the Barclays Center in Brooklyn and defeated one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference. Oklahoma City won the final stanza, 37-22, and that run of play allowed the Thunder to storm to a win against Kyrie Irving’s Nets.
The Thunder have not lost a game played in New York for five years, it is an incredible statistic and Josh Giddey was a huge part of the Thunder’s win. Since the start of December, Giddey has found another gear into his play.
His physicality and willingness to take defenders off the drive made all the difference against a stout Nets’ defense.
