The Oklahoma City Thunder are poised for long-term success thanks to their emotional maturity, which was on display in Game 2.
As the final buzzer sounded on the Oklahoma City Thunder 's dominating Game 2 win over the New Orleans Pelicans , members of the Thunder PR staff scrambled to wisk away the victors to their media obligations before leaving the court.
"I am humble but cocky in my own way," Gilgeous-Alexander said postgame when asked about his final moments on the Paycom Center hardwood before the series transitions to the Smoothie King Center. After a frustrating opening game offensively, Gilgeous-Alexander and Holmgren specifically could've let the outside noise impact them.
From there, it was much of the same as we have seen from the Thunder star in the regular season. The jaw-dropping tough shot making which included him falling behind the basket mixed with his one of a kind mismatch hunting ability thanks to his 6-foot-6 frame blending with his distinctive pace. The 7-footer could've easily set out to prove something in the opening positions, getting baited into banging with a behemoth big man. Instead, the uncommon emotional maturity of this team set in on the biggest stage.
