Oklahoma City Thunder rediscover their defensive edge in a dominant second-half performance against the Philadelphia 76ers, cruising to a 129-104 blowout. Can Chet Holmgren and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander power OKC back to its vintage identity and fuel another playoff surge?
Rylan Stiles breaks down the Thunder's rollercoaster night, spotlighting Holmgren's aggressive play in the paint, Lu Dort’s and Jalen Williams’ key adjustments, and the team’s renewed focus after halftime. Key topics include OKC’s struggle with inconsistent defensive intensity, the impact of a condensed schedule, and why forcing turnovers remains crucial for their success. Plus, analysis of Holmgren’s path to consistency, Ajay Mitchell’s energetic return, and what OKC must do to maintain momentum against the Atlanta Hawks. Is this the turning point Thunder fans have been waiting for?
