The Oklahoma City Thunder have yet to lose at home in the playoffs. They took a 1-0 series lead with their 11-point win in Game 1. They pretty much controlled every facet of the game, and the Heat simply had no answers despite another 30-point performance and 11 rebounds from LeBron James. The Heat were outshot, and the Thunder controlled the glass, and got to the line 9 more times. The Thunder also scored 16 more points in the paint and ran the Heat into the ground with 24 fast-break points to just 4 for Miami. Miami got 17 points from Shane Battier along with 4 from deep, while Hardedn scored just 5 points for the Thunder. The biggest difference was the 21 points the Thunder got in the fourth quarter from Westbrook and Durant, while Wade misfired six in a row at one point as he was content to take long jump shots. The Heat may have the super trio, but that has not translated into super team. At this point the Thunder are the better team and are at home. Play on Oklahoma City.
