Game 2's most fervid battle, the OKC frontcourt vs. Nikola Jokic, was a window into the Thunder's early punches and wire-to-wire domination of the Nuggets.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was brilliant, putting together his best playoff performance yet, in the Oklahoma City Thunder's Game 2 victory. The team had the game decided by halftime, but the MVP finalist played through three quarters to ensure the Denver Nuggets weren't going to mount a comeback.

After a Game 1 loss at home, OKC responded with a historic first half and cruised to victory behind SGA's "unbelievable blend."
