It was not a great night for the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Victor Oladipo was jittery, the pick-n-roll defense was shabby, and the overall effort was just bad (-y?). But why focus on all of that? I remember Game 1 of the Spurs series last year, don’t you?
The only thing that was really confirmed with absolutely certainty on Sunday night was that Patrick Beverley is the Thunder’s super-villain. Not Kevin Durant, the man who cut out our collective hearts, or even Draymond Green, the man who bruised our collective…uh..
It’s Beverley. It’s always been Beverley.
