Nick Gallo (okcthunder.com) previews tonight’s game in Portland: “While Nurkic is not a three-point shooter, he is a handful in pick-and-rolls with his skill level, ability to put the ball on the floor and passing, so the task will be similarly difficult. The rest of the Thunder roster can help Adams out with the job by being quick on their feet, physical off the ball and mentally tough enough to keep Damian Lillard, CJ McCollum, Seth Curry, and Evan Turner out of the lane. The Blazers are one of the best teams in the league at attacking the paint for kick out three-pointers or to force rotations that leave opponents vulnerable for offensive rebounds.
Thursday Bolts: 3.7.19
