The Memphis Grizzlies were able to pull off the 111-105 overtime win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night to tie the series at 1-1. The Thunder had a hard time making their shots in the game, going just 9-for-30 from three-point land and 37-for-93 overall.
Memphis looked like they wanted to avenge their 14-point loss in Game 1 early on and were able to go into the second quarter up by eight points. The Thunder found their groove a bit in the second period, though, and went into the half down three. The second half was much closer, but the Thunder had to erase a nine-point deficit to force overtime.
In the extra period, it was back-and-forth until Zach Randolph gave the Grizzlies a two-point lead with just over 25 seconds remaining. The Thunder didn't score again for the rest of the game and the Grizzlies eventually won by six points.
Randolph made 10 of his 20 shots and scored a team-high 25 points. Point guard Mike Conley had a double-double for the visitors with 19 points and 12 assists. Beno Udrih came off of the bench to score 14 points for the Grizzlies, while Tony Allen added eight rebounds in the win.
Kevin Durant scored a game-high 36 points, but he made just 12 of his 28 shots from the field. Russell Westbrook made just 11 of his 28 field goal attempts and finished with 29 points.
