- Analysis
- The Thunder are coming into this game with a 3-0 series lead and they have been dominant in these games. They have won 2 of the 3 games in this series by double digits and they are coming off of an 8 point win in their last game which was a big comeback win for them, being down by 20+ points in the 1st half. The Grizzlies were not able to win a game in this series even when they had a huge lead and they are not going to be much of a threat in this elimination game when they are missing their best player in Ja Morant. Morant only played 16 mins in game 3 as he had to leave early and it made a huge impact as the Grizzlies scored 77 points in the 1st half and only 31 points in the 2nd half. Now they are going to be without that offense and this Thunder defense has already held them under 100 points twice in this series. All 3 of the games in this series have not been too high scoring either, 2 of the 3 games staying under 220 points and all 3 of them seeing 222 points or less. The Thunder are not going to get into a big hole to start this game and the Grizzlies will not have many scoring options against this defense so this will be another low scoring game as the Thunder shut down this Grizzlies offense and will not need to exert themselves too much to keep a lead here. This will be a low scoring and more defensive game that stays under the total.
