Coach's Corner:
"If it wasn't for Dennis [Schroder] giving us a lift off the bench, that game would have been over in the second quarter. Our guys really struggled to get buckets, especially in the fourth. I don't think we scored after Tatum hit that go-ahead jumper with a minute or two left to go. We had the game in the palm of our hand, somehow, and we managed to let it slip away. I'm proud of the first 46 minutes our guys played, but we could have -- should have -- pulled that one out."
Billy Donovan, Thunder Coach
