How Thunder’s Unstoppable Strategy Crushed the Nuggets When It Mattered Most
That feeling was already lingering for the team before the game, with Aaron Gordon clearly hobbled by a reported Grade 2 hamstring strain. He suited up and was somehow impactful early in the game but clearly wasnât close to 100% physically. Michael Porter Jr. was already injured and didn’t looked like himself all series.
The knockout punch landed in the second quarter, when the Thunder went on a run that felt like their validation and the eulogy for the Nuggets all at once. Oklahoma City went on an 18-5 run that ended the quarter and effectively ended the Nuggetsâ season as the Thunder went on to win 125-93 and advance to face the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference finals.
