2 Amazing Stats from OKC’s Meltdown

[BigDofBA]

Coming into the game, teams that had a 15 point lead under 7 minutes to go in the game were 622-2.

Westbrook missed 20 shots. The rest of the team missed 19.....yet Westbrook took the final shot.

figured that would have happened more especially in today's nba where there have prob been multiple 30 pt leads blown this year but not sure Ive seen guy miss more shots than entire team or maybe that too does happen. erase russ' makes and misses altogether as if he didnt play and the thunder shoot 65% looking at the stats every player that shot at least 5 times shot over 60% last night thats 4 guys.

It sounded weird to me too.

Teams do blow leads all the time but under 7 minutes and up 15 this year’s that’s what the record was.

Everyone on OKCs team was shooting great but on their last possession Westbrook, who wasn’t shooting well, went 1 on 3 and threw up a crazy shot.

Also, Donovan just let Lilliard light it up when CJ was out of the game. Why not get the ball out of Lilliards hands and make someone else beat you?

Then, we’re paying Adams 25 million a year and he isn’t even playing in the 4th bc Donovan wanted to go small....leaving OKC with no rim protection.

Unreal meltdown.

That doesn't make sense. I can think of 2 examples in about 3 seconds.

Mavs/Heat game 2 2011.
Mavs/Thunder game 4 2011.

Surely the 2011 Mavericks are not the only team that has done this?

That’s just this season.

Oh okay, I thought this was a playoff stat going back a number of years.

Still doesn't sound right but I guess it's possible.
