OKC has to stop leaning on Shai isolations and start running real actions.
The Spurs figured out the formula — hound the ball handlers, stay home, get in passing lanes. If OKC doesn't counter with off-ball movement and team-wide actions to free Shai up, San Antonio is going to keep making life difficult.
I expect OKC to adjust. They're one of the best teams in the league at it. But Game 5 on their home floor is going to tell us a lot about whether they can solve what the Spurs threw at them. #shorts
