Thunder are winning more often. Out of the last ten matches, Mark Daigneault's team won 5. Oklahoma does not get into the play-in this season, but their plans are highly ambitious. The current championship is a trial for the updated team, but Thunder threatens to become a dangerous force in the next tournament.
In Minneapolis, Oklahoma failed the first quarter, losing the -20 period. Then Thunder straightened things out and almost caught up with the opponent. It was impossible to win, but now it seems that the team has every chance to take revenge.
Minnesota Pursuing of the Playoffs
In the former format, the Timberwolves would have been on the edge of the playoff zone. The team is ranked 9th in the West with 18-20 points. The new format allows getting into the post-season from lower positions - through the play-in round. Thus, Minnesota is still accomplishing the task, at least being in the top ten.
The victory over Oklahoma was the second for the Wolves. Before the match with the Thunder, the team ended the road tour winning over the Los Angeles Clippers 122:104. Even though Chris Finch's team has already had five defeats in the last eight matches.
