The Golden State Warriors have played at the 8th-least up-tempo pace-of-play in the league over the last 10 games on their home court, which should decrease possessions for the Oklahoma City Thunder.The Thunder have been the worst offensive rebounding offense in the league on the road this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce extra chances for scoring and assists).This year, their opposition has nabbed 12.0 offensive rebounds per game (6th-most in the league) vs. the Golden State Warriors (preserving possessions that can produce added chances for offense).Josh Giddey will not have the home court advantage in this game. Playing away from your home stadium generally reduces player performance in all facets of the game.
