“We’re going into Game 4 liking where we are,” Blazers point guard Damian Lillard said. “That was the big difference in the game,” Blazers coach Terry Stotts said. OKC shot 28 and 23 free throws in the first two games. “They got to the free-throw line too much, the free throw disparity was a big deal all game,” Stotts said. Portland had failed to score at least 40 points in the first half in just one game during the regular season.
