We got a nice run to finish the third and did a nice job in the fourth to get control of the game. Paris: Jose Alvarado missed the 3-point attempt on one end and the long rebound ended up in the hands of Jalen Williams who immediately set out in transition and led a 3-on-1 fast break. In the opening minutes of the third quarter that’s exactly what the Thunder brought. More than the points scored in Las Vegas, it was the confidence, rhythm and reps that Mann got with the Blue that was most valuable, and those factors showed themselves against New Orleans. Nick: The Thunder’s third quarter push began by turning defense into offense quickly, and Josh Giddey was a catalyst for that type of sequence. Paris: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander brought the ball up the floor and got a high ball screen from Tre Mann. Paris: Coming out of halftime, the Thunder focused their attention on their energy, particularly on the defensive end. The Thunder finished with 20 fast-break points in the game. Shai quickly turned that takeaway into points for OKC as he pitched ahead a pass to Kenrich Williams for a wide-open dunk in the open floor. For the night, the Thunder outscored New Orleans 66-54 in the paint. The fourth quarter was a shootout, as the Thunder’s run extended to build a nine-point lead. Before Friday night’s game between the Thunder and New Orleans Pelicans, OKC head coach Mark Daigneault explained that the 22 clutch-time games the team has been in have served as obvious reminders of the value of every single possession.
