Oklahoma City dropped its second consecutive game on Saturday afternoon, falling behind 2-1 in their series against Dallas.
After a 5-0 start to the postseason for the Oklahoma City Thunder, the youngest team in the NBA Playoffs is having to face adversity for the first time since the regular season ended.
In Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals, the Thunder had an incredible shooting performance, hitting 45.7% of its 3-point shots.team didn't have the same result, hitting just 33.3% of their shots from beyond the arc. These shooting struggles haunted Oklahoma City again in Game 3, as OKC once again shot 33.3% from deep in a losing effort.
While Oklahoma City's defense hasn't been terrible in Games 2 and 3, there are obvious warts that Daigneault and company will need to work out. Most notably,was Dallas' leading scorer in the last two contests, tallying 29 points in Game 2 and 27 points in Game 3., often leaving one of the Mavericks' role players open from 3-point range. While this strategy worked well in Game 1, Washington has shot the ball very well for two games in a row.
The young team committed 13 turnovers on Saturday afternoon with multiple coming at extremely inopportune moments in the game. At one point,stole a pass from Irving as the Thunder trailed by three with about two minutes left in the game.
