The Thunder have embraced their size in the second round, but the opposite could help them extend the season.
Oklahoma City has struggled to score in the second round, but a different approach could lead to improved results.
Although Oklahoma City’s uncharacteristically poor shooting has contributed to the problem, more versatility could help the team in Game 6. Considering the impact of Dallas’ bigs, playing them off the floor is unlikely, but forcing them into unfavorable matchups could turn things around. Although Holmgren drastically improved the Thunder on both ends this season, the team has plenty of experience with small ball throughout the past two seasons. Kenrich Williams has been the typical center in those lineups, but that duty could go to Jalen Williams or Aaron Wiggins without him in the rotation.
