6 GIFs Of The Oklahoma City Thunder Getting Destroyed On Defense Without Serge Ibaka
TNT
The Thunder offense looked out of sorts, with Nick Collison bricking the same open baseline jumpers that Ibaka lives on.
The Thunder defense looked even worse, with the Spurs getting into the lane at an alarming rate and finishing with ease. San Antonio won 122-105 and scored 66 points in the paint on 57% shooting.
Oklahoma City doesn't have another defender with the versatility, athleticism, or rim protection of Ibaka. OKC was 4-0 in the regular season against San Antonio, and Ibaka's defense was a principal reason why.
They were just lost without him last night. The Spurs got everything they wanted in the paint.
