Thunder sets NBA playoff record with 87-point 1st half explosion in Game 2

After watching the New York Knicks and Boston Celtics take things down to the wire on the East Coast, the Oklahoma City Thunder left little to the imagination regarding who was the better team in Game 2 of their series against the Denver Nuggets.

Taking the court down 0-1 following some late-game heroics from Aaron Gordon, the Thunder ran away with a quick lead, scoring 45 points in the first half and 42 more in the second on the way to an insane 87-56 score.

Pretty impressive number, no? Well, according to the team themselves, it’s actually the most ever in the first half of a playoff game, a fact they were eager to share on social media during the break.
