November 10th versus the Milwaukee Bucks:

Although the Thunder lost the match to the Bucks it was one of those games that came down to the wire. Had the match occurred later in the season it wouldn’t be a stretch to think the result would’ve been a victory instead of a two-point loss.

Paul delivered 17 points, five rebounds, five assists, a steal, and hit three of his five 3-pointers including one at the game end.

November 12th versus the Philadelphia 76ers:

Entering the fourth quarter the Thunder trailed by three points and fell behind by nine but Chris Paul scored 12 in the frame to help draw OKC even and force overtime.

The trio of Paul (4 points, an assist), Gilgeous-Alexander (6 points), and Danillo Gallinari (7 points) were the keys to the victory as they accounted for 17 of the 20 points. Although Thanksgiving (November 28th) is earmarked as the date the Thunder flipped the switch to become the clutch time killers this win could easily be cited as the night everything seemingly came together.
