The Oklahoma City Thunder had a rough shooting night in Game 2 against the Dallas Mavericks, and it didn’t help that the Mavs shot lights out from downtown. The end result was a 119-110 loss for OKC, which means no more home court advantage as the series is tied up at 1-1. Now the Thunder head to Dallas for Game 3 where they will look to regain that home court advantage.

The Mavericks knocked down 48.6% of their threes in the Game 2 win against the Thunder in OKC, which is their 7th best outing from downtown all season long. The Thunder managed just 33.3% from three, 5.5% lower than they knocked down in the regular season. While this isn’t the only stat from Game 2, it is the most obviously impactful one. I don’t think Dallas shoots that well again, and I don’t think OKC shoots that poorly again, so I’m taking the Thunder to regain home court advantage by stealing Game 3 on the road.
