Giannis was outstanding. The whole scheme they had for covering Shai was really good, too. That said, if the Thunder had made their threes they would have won.
Definitely agree re: their defense on SGA. "If [team X] had made their threes they would have won" is probably something that can be said about most games, but it's not like the Thunder did anything wrong, necessarily. They just got beat and sometimes that happens. People will try to tell you it means they have some inherent flaw but I don't really believe that. They are and will remain awesome and an inner-circle contender.
