OKLAHOMA CITY
How much better will the Thunder be in April?
In June?
The Big Game is Thursday night, we’ve done this one before and it was great, Cleveland outlasting the Thunder in Ohio, whetting our appetites for OKC’s week-later attempt at a tie.
The Thunder responding to Cleveland’s mild lashing by thwapping the Knicks by 25 in Madison Square Garden. Bernard King and Edie Falco were probably there and they were probably squirming to leave once the Knicks failed to put a dent into it midway through the third quarter. Vincent Pastore stuck around for the whole thing because the outsized outcome of the game was likely no small investment to VP and you know he made out, you know our guy can sniff a storm coming.
OKC wins in Washington after that, 41-point victory. Philly next, zero Sixers in attendance, 16-point Thunder win, back in their own beds early Wednesday morning.
Walkthrough Wednesday, drive back home, walk dogs, catch up on correspondence before bed, wake to clown the Cavs.
