It’ll be interesting to see which identity is able to better sustain success once the postseason is here.

Only three more quarters stand between the Thunder and the win they were favored to collect coming into this evening. They have a bit of a cushion as they currently lead the Cavaliers 32-14. The Thunder entered the matchup having won three straight and they're just three quarters away from another.

The Thunder shockingly crushed the Cavaliers in every facet of the game, getting its revenge on Cleveland after a loss to them days ago.

After losing the first meeting, the Thunder evened the score Thursday night in a 134-114 win over the Cavs, who suffered their worst loss of the season.
