Oklahoma City Thunders create new record after Game 4 victory at the NBA Finals
OKC Thunders vs Indiana Pacers (Image via Getty) The NBA Finals are ongoing and we are four games out. With a 2-2 record so far, it's anyone's game, and either the Oklahoma City Thunders or the Indiana Pacers could end up taking the championship this season. But before that can be decided, the OKC Thunders have a new record set in the NBA, that was until now held by the Golden State Warriors. But this current Thunders team came and left no crumbs, as they now have the highest scoring record by a team in a single season. Oklahoma City Thunders now have the highest scoring record in NBA Until the last game between the Oklahoma City Thunders and the Indiana Pacers, the Golden State Warriors held the record for the highest score by a team in a single season with 12,161 points, which they scored during the 2018-19 season. Going into Game 4 of the NBA Finals, the Thunders were 68 points shy of breaking that record, and they managed to make it during the third quarter of the game. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored a three throw in the third quarter to break the previous record by GSW, and by the end of the game, the OKC Thunders had their new record in the books and a new record to keep the Indiana Pacers from feeling too comfortable. Right now, the two teams have a 2-2 record in the finals with three more games to go. Talking about the team's success this season and the amount of new records they have set so far, coach Mark Daigneault said: 'I think there's just a lot of integrity to the team. I think that starts with the makeup that these guys have... Great psychological makeup, competitive makeup, personal makeup. Then over time we've had to really kind of forge into this version of ourselves, in visible spaces.' The Thunders have 82 wins this season, including the 68 regular season wins. And if they do end up winning this season, they will become the fourth team in league history to have at least 84 wins in a full season. This has been an extraordinary season for the OKC Thunders, and whether they win or lose the championship, they will have a season to remember.
