I feel compelled to start this recap by reminding everyone that Kyle Singler airballed a layup tonight.
Simply put, the Cavaliers out-executed the Thunder today. OKC lost a go-to-scorer when Enes Kanter decided to punch a chair on Thursday against the Mavs. This had overtly obvious effects on the Thunder offense. Westbrook had 20 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists, 1 steal and 1 block on a fairly inefficient 7-of-26 from the field. He earned his 24th triple-double of the season, but clearly needed help on the offensive end.
Adams and Oladipo are respectively the second and third best players for OKC, that’s certainly no hot take.
