5 numbers to set the stage as the Oklahoma City Thunder (32-25) prepare to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers (33-22) in OKC tonight.
The Thunder were quiet at the trade deadline. The Cavaliers, to put it lightly, were not. Six players were shipped out of The Land and four new players- George Hill, Rodney Hood, Larry Nance, Jr, and Jordan Clarkson- were brought in, in perhaps the most extreme revamp of a roster ever attempted mid-season by a team considered to be a contender.
Whether or not this will put the Cavs over the top in the NBA finals remains to be seen, but the reinforcements clearly have re-energized the team.
