For a starter who averaged 18.0 points in the Western Conference Finals, it wasn't an ideal start. You could say the same about his teammates, as Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault revealed Game 1 wasn't ideal for anyone on his team. Still, losing by one point stings.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on what the Thunder need to do to tie the series in Game 4: “Learn from your mistakes, rest, recovery, do everything we can to be a better basketball team for next game… that’s it” https://t.co/6Ti22sPyZY
Gilgeous-Alexander: “They were high on the pick-and-rolls” Reporter: Have they been doing that? SGA: “They hadn’t. They were higher tonight. They were above the screener… it goes back to a little more force. If we’re more aggressive setting it up. Then, we get a better angle” https://t.co/ZHD4jtEBIh
