The Thunder shot 39.8 percent from the field and 15.2 percent on 3-pointers in Game 1, trailed by as many as 19 and still only lost by five. Game 2 will be a different story. Oklahoma City went 4-0 against Portland during the regular season, and the Thunder's shooting is bound to rebound. Take the points.
Portland was able to hold serve at home in the first game of this series with a five-point win. Both teams shot the ball poorly, but the Thunder were extremely inefficient by shooting 39.8 percent from the field. Paul George’s shoulder injury could be a problem, but he claims he’s fine. I liked the Thunder to win this series and I think they’ll steal a game on the road here, so I’ll take the points.
