The Oklahoma City Thunder have the best record in the NBA are in a fight against the 12-10 Memphis Grizzlies and trail 50-44 at the half. The Thunder have been virtually unbeatable at home as they have lost only one game at home this season.
The Grizzlies are getting scoring help from starters Rudy Gay and Marc Gasol as well as O.J. Mayo off the bench as all three of those players are in double figures. The Thunder are getting scoring from their two superstars in Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant as they each have 13 points at the break, and the only other scorer James Harden who has contributed with 10 points. Outside of those three the rest of the Thunder team has gone cold.
The Grizzlies have their lead because they were able to secure a five-point lead after the first quarter and extended their lead to 11 points in the second quarter, but the Thunder started to mount a comeback and chipped away at the lead and now trail only 50-44 at the half.
