OKC Thunder at Miami Heat | Game Highlights | January 10, 2024
Shay stops mid post that one rattles in open up the scoring for OKC hot coming off a big road trip as a he of done Shay got caught in the air still able to slip it down to Homen with the reverse layup hero so far off to a quick
Start take a look at this I mean he’s just like trying to gather the ball together and and just you know puts him on a poster this to solidify his season as a rookie has not just been scoring it’s been on the defensive end as well speaking of
Defense SGA with the steal leads the NBA and steals per game and then he goes right to the cup defensively as he does on the other on the offensive end he’s really been more engaged on the defensive end this year than any other year and that is just a beautiful F got
It man you know you do your job when you chase him off that line because you know he’s he’s seen a lot of sunsets in this game he doesn’t want to drive the game Drive the ball Hard Miami kicks back on defense SJ through all kinds of traffic
Plays through it yic with the foul and another and one possibility by the heat with some solid consistent offense there it is yic held him up SGA ball fake goes inside back outside Jaylen Williams dumps it down nice pass that’s two pretty assists so far from Jay will Off the Bench
He doesn’t want to be thought of as just an offensive score I would be really surprised if he’s not first team all NBA no excuse me certainly don’t want him getting in any kind of Rhythm Shay looking to puncture that Miami defense and does as he’s got another assist this
One to J or the Thunder go up closer to that 35 points if they make a few more didn’t really take a whole lot how about that nice tough drive through that that defense we talked about beich finds an open player it’s Dort Dort wants to drive in avoids the
Charge and then Scoops it up and in man still running out see in his vision the lob up top jet Homen somehow got his hands on it Wiggins stops pulls up tough shot still got it up over Richardson as Wiggins comes in yeah basically looped around
The East Coast here it’s a nice touch going into the shot blocker’s body since you’ve already seen Jay will do that a couple of times here be nice move once again going right and finishing right off the window remarkable too by the way that’s why that scoreboard keeps climbing up here
Man leave Isaiah Joe open that’s exactly what’s going to happen but the heat fall asleep on defense he had a big victory the other day in overtime up at Brooklyn catch and shoot three for Isaiah Joe that is good got away with it in the league ronas Barcelona folks get your
Phones out don’t get them out yet cuz we’re going to enjoy this three-point shot by K Wallace W it’s a double standard come on it is I it’s another good look in the Thunder would take their lead for the first time tonight folks in this first half pretty
Impressive and the only difference once again is the couple of Threes that the Heat have you on the scoreboard Thunder knockdown seven and first half now about eight g a wall off yic and good close out just to get out there to hawz hen left hand they’re going to call
A blocking foul and that’s going to put him at the free throw line for an oldfashioned three-point play night it’s been a lead change that’s a nice is that a Euro Step by the big man man look like one to me oh Yeah oh and then he goes with the left gly bird jab step ball swings over to Giddy and giddy’s got a little space to drain the three swings over to Giddy right back to Shay in the corner look at all those passes and finally it’s Shay putting up the
Mid-range shot and the Thunder offense continues a hero and guess what folks he’s passing the ball stealing the ball and he’s calling his own numbers he did not scored here through the first almost three minutes well I don’t know what yic was doing there other than he was
Determined to shoot over the top of K Wallace who sets it up puts it on a platter for jdub who puts it down and good job picking up that loose change the Thunder continue to play the other way and get just what they want a transition bucket contributing a ton
They’ve combined for S3 yeah that’s that’s a big part of why the Heat have been doing pretty good that’s going to be a big part of why Chad hogen is going to get an and one make sure that wasn’t out of bounds he did a good job of
Tooling the block back in volleyball kept it in play gy tough shot going left scores so the Thunder gained the advantage here in this third quarter JB steps in mid-range shot and he just looks so comfortable to see that sort of perimeter Zone with Kevin Love lurking
In the restricted area and the Thunder finally able to break it down as meic got inside and dumped him down to kenri Williams this is going to be a tough shot oh that’s a good steal there Dort drives in and Scoops it up and in five out of seven
Shooting by far the most threes and SGA responds as he rips the courts from downtown maybe we should have expected that coming in Shay off his spot still able to stay composed midair and go off glass not giving up anything he he once again blocked it FL footed oh look at
That pass man that that is just a beautiful pass come on man looking to initiate the offense over to kenri Williams open on the three and kenri Williams buries it just in front of the Miami bench key to the Thunder offense on the night the assists another game with over
30 assists and Jaylen Williams going to put it on the deck and score for Miami this was not a late possession shot this was just jdub putting his head down look he gets by AO and Richardson is waiting pops out to jdub up ahead to Dort Dort
Got met at the rim by adabo but he was blocked outside the three he’ll take that in instead that was a problem for the Thunder at times late in the third quarter up top it is hren that three is good Big Time shot for Chad holgren
Hero’s mid-range shot in and out no good hren down the lane on the deck and scores in transition well the Thunder surged in the fourth quarter early let’s see if they can get it done here late SGA got to his spot right below the free throw line and puts it in
Who started in every single game this year so he’s done a good job Jay dancing with it and then buries the three on the step back giddy quickly into the front court gets across the timeline double team gives it up to Chad hren and Chad hren finally gives the
Thunder the offense it needs out this road trip clows out Miami with a victory Chad threw it away up ahead to hero and the recovery by Chad holen on the block of hero I don’t know what you’re talking about but I know what block I saw my
Goodness the kid can block shots right CH hren another dazzling performance by the rookie getting it done here on the road the Thunder get it done holding off the Miami Heat 128 120 another big offensive night couple of Kentucky players

Great defense OKC. 👏👏👏
Great coaching as well. They have to start giving coach more challenges.
First 🫡
I wouldn't mind having Jaquez in OKC, js.
SGA Washington, Dub Roosevelt, and Chet Lincoln baby!
Great unselfish style of playing, unlike other teams where its everyman for himself
from the first half alone it would be impossible for OKC to win it. but they played tough 48 minutes and the Heat cooled off. very mature win by these guys
Amazing game.
yay team! another arm wrestle. even when we have won and against lesser teams, id be curious to see stats supporting how slow we are out of the blocks. we do tend to get better as the game goes on.
See? The first 2 atrocious road games are still growing pains for OKC. Now they figuring out how to play on the road.
My favorite part of these Thunder only highlights is being able to zoom in on the opposing teams bench and see the players and coaches reaction when they watch SGA, Dub, and Chet with this young ass team 😂. Especially when we’re away and first time playing them. You know veteran lead teams love hearing all this praise bout a young team then going and teaching them a lesson bout life in the NBA but then the complete opposite happens 😂 This team is just different, they act different, play different, it’s just a different level of maturity that I used to see from like GSW or LBJ Heat team, NOT COMPARING US AS A CONTENDER, “MENTALITY”
Contenders
Taking souls
We played better on offense and defense in the second half holding the Heat to 51 second half points while scoring 63 second half points… We were able to get to the rim in the second half and that led to collapsing their defense leading to quality shots on offense and clogging the lane on defense forcing the Heat to make shots outside the point or 3-point line.. Good win to finish off the road trip at 2-2.. Portland at the crib tomorrow night!!!
A joy to watch
Love this ride. We are watching history , never has there been a team like this…THE UNCOMMON TEAM❤
