Memphis Grizzlies and Oklahoma City Thunders Even Out

Game 2 between grizzlies and thunder

The grizzlies and thunder struck each other in the first two matches of the NBA playoff series. While the Memphis Grizzlies won the first game, the second game was snatched by the Oklahoma City Thunders. As of now, they stand level at 1-1. Thunders showed more aggression, better strategy and more drive in the second game. Their shot selections were much better and organized when compared to the first game where players looked like all they wanted was to get close to the basket. The strategy of the OCT in the second game was a big turnaround from the first match. The new technique has worked in their favor as they ended up avenging their first round defeat in the hands of the Memphis Grizzlies.

How the game progressed?

The game began with an anxious anticipation. The second game witnessed better defense in the game strategy of the Thunders. The game saw the Thunders take a 20-point lead over the Memphis Grizzlies before the Grizzlies attempted to assuage the injury. However, it seemed a bit too late for recovery as the result went in favor of the Thunders. The Oklahoma City Thunders showed spirit and control in the second game, which ultimately brought a change in the result.

The anticipation of game 3

With the scores leveled out, all eyes are on Saturday?s match. Game three will be crucial for both the sides to decide the winner. Now that the Memphis Grizzlies have had a day?s rest and sufficient time to plan their game strategies, game 3 will definitely be worth watching out for. The Grizzlies need to reform strategies and analyze the game plan of the Thunder, who seemed very aggressive and physical in the second game. Thunders had adopted the same approach as Grizzlies had in game 1. What innovations the teams are going to get to the third game is a much anticipated moment. Grizzlies will sure be looking for a win and Thunder will be wise to expect a backlash. In any case, it will be interesting to watch the two teams try to get better of each other on Saturday.
