A lot has changed since OKC faced Dallas in the 2012 playoffs. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was 13 and still living in Canada. Chet Holmgren was 10, and his growth spurt hadn't hit.

But here's what Jason Kidd remembers about playing against OKC in that series.

The 2018 NBA Draft produced plenty of talent including Dallas' Luka Doncic and OKC's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who'll face off in the second round of the playoffs.

Who should've gone No. 1? I teamed up with Joe Mussatto to redraft the 2018 draft lottery.

'Post-trade deadline, I thought that really changed their team.'

OKC won its regular-season series against Dallas, 3-1. But as the two teams prepare to face off in the second round, the Thunder is bracing itself for the new-and-improved Mavericks.

I caught up with New Orleans’ Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, who got traded from OKC prior to the start of this season.

Here’s what JRE had to say about his time with the Thunder and why he felt it was due for a breakout campaign.

Three lower-seeded teams won Game 2 on the road this playoffs.

But OKC refused to add to that total. Here’s how it earned a dominant 124-92 win over New Orleans on Wednesday.

The most points Chet Holmgren has scored in the first quarter this season was 11.

He scored 15 points in the first quarter tonight, and OKC has a 35-22 lead over New Orleans heading into the second.

Shai held up the prayer hands after making that 3-pointer, almost as if to say “thank you.”

He had gone 0 for 14 from deep in OKC’s last three games.
