Westbrook competes 19+5, unable to awaken the Nuggets fighting spirit, Thunder won 43 points, and created 4 miracles in one battle!

In the NBA East and West semi-finals this season, the teams playing at home seemed to be cursed. No matter how many points they lead, they faced a loss. Before the Thunder semi-finals G2, they had already ended, all of the visiting teams won the 6 semi-finals. Among them, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics were in an unfavorable situation of 0-2.

However, in this game, the Thunder broke this curse. Under Alexander's leadership, they defeated the Nuggets in the first quarter, leading by 49 points at most, and the suspense of the game ended early. In the end, the Thunder defeated the Nuggets 149-106, chasing the series to 1 tie.

[Match Highlights]

As the team with the best performance in the NBA this season, the Thunder once led by 14 points in the first match of the semi-finals, but they played penalty tactics with the Nuggets at the last moment. Homgren missed two free throws, giving uncrowned dunk king Aaron Gordon the chance to win. Now they meet again, Alexander has only one goal, which is to lead the team to revenge at home.

[Match Review]

Alexander, who had a very eye-catching personal performance in the last game, started an offensive mode that ignored any defense. Although the Nuggets wanted to use double-teams and assisted defense to limit his performance, it had no effect. In the whole game, Alexander maintained the terrifying efficiency of 11 goals with 13 shots and hits, and contributed gorgeous personal data of 34 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists.

Under Alexander's review, the Thunder also made a smooth overall offense. A total of 7 players scored in double digits. The culprit of the team was reversed in the last game, and the data column was also filled with 15+11+2+2+2. The performance of the whole nation is also the reason why the Thunder can win a big victory at home.

The Nuggets were defeated away in this game. In addition to their good form, there is another important reason for this. The only person who can leave the court with his head held high is Westbrook. Westbrook, who was on the bench, made 5 goals in 11 shots in this game, not only scored the team's highest 19 points, but also scored 1 rebound and 5 assists. In order to stimulate the fighting spirit of his teammates, Westbrook had a conflict with Harten and Jerin Williams in the first half, but unfortunately he did not awaken the Nuggets' bloodline.

Compared with Westbrook, the biggest feeling that the Nuggets started with the Five Tigers gave fans this game is that they have no blood. While the team was behind, they still did not show aggressiveness. Jokic scored only 17 points in 6 of 16 shots, Murray scored only 14 points in 4 of 9 shots. Porter, who made 1 of 8 shots in the last game, continued to make a blacksmith and made 2 of 10 shots. Braun also felt cold, and only exchanged for 1 point in 6 shots. Such a sluggish performance at the starter was also doomed to have a disastrous defeat.

With the sound of the final whistle of this game, the series score between the Nuggets and the Thunder reached 1-1, and the Thunder, who won a home victory, also set three major records. One of them led by 24 points in the quarter of 45-21, setting a record for the largest score difference in the first quarter of the playoffs this season. The second quarter of the season tied the team's single-quarter score record for the team's history playoffs, and 87 points in the third half, setting a new record for the NBA playoffs history half-time score. The fourth Alexander plus-minus +51 is also a new record for the NBA playoffs.
