The Oklahoma City Thunder defended home court in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals on Tuesday night, taking a 114–88 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves to move one step closer to the NBA Finals.
While the final score shows a blowout, it was far from a cakewalk for the Thunder, who trailed the Wolves for most of the game before taking control in the third quarter and never looking back, ultimately outscoring Minnesota 70–40 in the second half.
