James Harden, avid Twitterer that he is, makes a habit of ending most of his pre-game tweets with “#ThunderUp.” It’s a call of sorts, a reminder to get focused, play as a unit, and have fun doing it. Sometimes OKC checks all these boxes and wins. Sometimes they don’t. But they’re never better at them than when they’re at home. OKC did OKC things in Game 3, got a career playoff high 19 from Thabo Sefolosha, and wrapped a 102-82 win, elbowing the series to 2-1. The Spurs’ cyborg-esque 20 game win streak snapped in the process, while the Thunder’s undefeated-at-home-in-the-2012-NBA-Playoffs streak extended. Now if James can just figure how to take #ThunderUp on the team plane.
