OKC Thunder at Brooklyn Nets | Game Highlights | January 5, 2024
And it pops over to Jaylen Williams Chad hren a little slow to get up as giddy puts it on the deck goes right at Mel Bridges in scores over Mel Bridges hren oh the dive SGA there’s an extra cut and it leads to a dunk right across the baseline from example of what we’ve seen from this Thunder team there’s a good shot there but there’s a better shot and look at all the shirts he always makes that right pass so
Unselfish with the basketball there again folks oh no in and all of a sudden we’re seeing some dazzling distribution SJ a big part of it that was incredible just a real clever pass in traffic how about this and hen is going to put it down with a vicious flush and
Transition there’s one thing that Mark D was concerned with coming in the three-point shooting for Brooklyn hogen on the fade away that is so smooth the touch she came over in the Kyrie Irving trade Shay on the Block oh such a swift move so quick on that spin Terminator
Two I didn’t know you were terminated that huge what a drive slicing right through that Brooklyn defense jayen Williams a left-handed finish there’s Jay du going right right down the middle here’s Shay folks check this out I mean almost unfair shot blockers you know they like to time your shot
Opportunities even though the Thunder missed a lot of points in that first quarter there’s a nice play coming out here in the second quarter as jayd dub and Chad hren about as jdb once again this time gives it back to Homen a little behind the back pass hren drives on shark and goes
Off glass and that’s four [Applause] points and it’s coinciding with the Thunder not being able to find production on this end nice inbounds pass meic gifted Pastor so Brooklyn in the game is shooting 57% it’s a lot of easy offense n works his way underneath nice move nice
Play to get this deficit maybe down to single digits by halftime oh me yet again putting it on the deck in a little acceleration right to the C made a lot of those this year and SGA oldfashioned three-point play has been a recipe for him on the
Night let don’t get the substitution in it leads to a Cas Wallace wide open Three G’s got some space sees it drives shot it up over Bridges and a nice tip in there by Chad homr head up trying to distribute as Dort will let it fly that three is good that’s a sight for sore eyes the Thunder have not been able to Dent that lead for the
Nets open shooter Shay has the feet behind the three-point line as that three drops in Nets has a get Nick get him and first as a thunder okay all right Nick that’s a tough one does that is that is that fair I’ll be watching are you uh phoning a friend [Applause] here
A nice little steal and layup by L Dort late in this third quarter but the Nets have had some three-point shots to try to squash the Thunder and any idea of a back to Isaiah Joe straight away that three is good that’s cash money there right now and it’s the offense
That was the biggest problem for Brooklyn during this rough stretch they were the worst shooting team field percentage wise just trying to strike a match on that offense and set the heel of bra a blaze well this is what ched going to his move that’s a
Nice one you know shoots it over the top he’s comfortable with his back to the basket he makes that move like a guard that one1 covers your ched takes his time on a nice little fader something he’s so comfortable with his Bridge has got caught in the
Air ald starts the break got it right back from WI and that’s a nice [Applause] play Thomas no but a putback O’Neal Claxton both underneath Claxton had it taken away by Meic Wiggins cutting inside and scores that’s all it takes it made it look easy as the Nets were forced to call time out what has been a steep climb boy JB got fouled and then Scoops it up and in WoW holding on to him he he’s very
Strong folks I mean look at this he’s riding him that’s a shot blocker there too in Claxton now a little cup too yeah that four out of 11 meic from the Baseline pulls up for the shot that’s Good said the ball was still loose it’s exactly what he said now the ball tapped over Dort trying to save it and he does the giddy giddy down the lane that is a really tough shot just put his head down and then Banks it in giddy down low and Josh giddy just
Chiseling his way through the Brooklyn defense the strategy is to foul Claxton and put the 60% shooter at the free throw line and despite all the contacts no whistle Shay drives off balance still puts it up and in it’s back up to 12 as Jay du drives right at
Bridges I thought they scoring quick buckets 65 seconds left Shay little step back three and it’s a seven-point [Applause] game ball advances Brooklyn getting it in and Brooklyn prly gives it right up SGA down the lane Brooklyn happily giving up the two six-point game 12.3 seconds to go
Threes in the first half and through the first three quarters for Brooklyn just really lifted them way up on the scoreboard and the Thunder comeback comes up short gave it their best in the fourth quarter

Always tough on the road especially with the back-to-back the other day. Got a couple days rest now before the Washington game, no doubt we'll come back strong. Thunder up!
2 games in a row making the task extremely tough to chase down huge leads. came up short again but hopefully next match we can get out of the blocks better.
Gotta stop these slow starts and getting 20+ point leads on us.
This team seems to like being behind at HT then coming home with a wet sail but you can't keep it up
All good, it wasnt a blowout like the 76ers.
Both mental and physical fatigue to be expected especially with a younger team. It's all part of the journey.
Lucky I wasn't playing 😤
It's the losses that make me want to see more of what there is for the team to improve on. These highlight reels are good, but not particularly useful for learning.
We need Jalen Duren
yo despite all the Giddey accusations , gotta give props to Giddey for still showing out !! 🔥
Tough game on the road, well fought back in the fourth from the squad. Let’s look forward to the next game #thunderup
Come on, OKC. This isn't how a contender plays. Y'all need to figure this out and get back to winning. Don't let this funk linger. This is gonna be a tough month but y'all need to stay on top of it.
Defense is lacking the last two games to say the least! Smh
There are 2 problems right now and they are that we arent getting off to good starts to games and allow opponents to get comfortable in their offense as we are a respected opponent now and two is rebounding in the last 2 games against the Hawks and Nets we have allowed 20+offensive rebounds leading to over 20+second chance points…. We need to trade a rotational player that can rebound, defend, and also be able to create his own shot to allieviate the load of SGA, JDub and Chet… We are fine just get back to the basics of Thunder Basketball
I agree with your Giddy comments! Josh has been really steady of late! I can't imagine what's he is going through and to be booed at every visiting team's arena. It has to be tough psychologically. Got to be thick skinned, go Josh!
Love, that's Roaring Thunder!!
i'm biased because i'm canadian, but imagine zach edey as their centre, chet holmgren power fwd….. a giant old school centre and a versatile big power forward… jalen williams small fwd, right now i'd push isaiah joe as a starting guard, and SGAll about the swag.
i think that's what they missin now- another big/starting fwd, and giddey off the bench. Micic looks pretty sick 2 ngl fr, ngl, fr… fam
