After two direct hooking, the Oklahoma City Thunder has control over the round 1 series against the Memphis Grizzlies. Not only because they climbed 2-0 in the series, but because they arrived there.

The 131-80 victory of the Thunder 131-80 flirted with history. A 51-point victory is below the most one-sided playoff games in NBA history. It made the 118-99 Game 2 victory from OKC in comparison like small potatoes.

Depending on how the Thunder in Memphis appears in games 3 and 4, this could be one of the one-sided playoff series in NBA history. Only the Los Angeles Lakers from 1985-86 against the San Antonio Spurs had a higher point differential in two games at Plus-75.

According to Grizzlies head coach Tuomas Iisalo, it is time for you to take care of the business. It is the only way of thinking that the eighth sequence’s squad can have after two emptying losses.

“The news of the team was very short. Let us get on the plane as soon as possible,” said Iisalo. “You took care of your business, now it’s time for us to take care of our business at home. Nothing more.”

Before her defeat in game 1, the new Memphis coach said that the pressure on the first thundering thunder to win her first two games. While conventional wisdom agrees because a playoff series does not really start when the Road team wins, it was a bit surprising and pushed the script out of what coaches normally tell the media.

The thunder entered the Playoff series and showed why people had the right to say that. But now it is a new challenge to prove it in an enemy environment. This will add a new challenge that could tighten the talent gap between the troops.
