The Boston Celtics and Oklahoma City Thunder looked very much like the dominant teams they were during the regular season in securing lopsided first-round playoff series wins. Suddenly, both teams are facing their first dose of adversity this postseason following Game 1 losses to open Round 2.

Game 2 looked a lot like Game 1 for New York with a 20-point deficit, a lopsided scoring run and a Mikal Bridges steal to ice the win.

The Thunder, in what became clear from the jump, had no interest in sharing company in these NBA Playoffs with the beleaguered beasts of the East.
