Jokić fueled a second-half comeback against the Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals with 42 points and 22 rebounds before Gordon hit a game-winning three in the final seconds to give Denver a 121-119 win.

The same can be said in the East, where the defending champion Boston Celtics struggled from beyond the arc and squandered a big lead against the New York Knicks, dropping Game 1

After Chet Holmgren missed two free throws, Russell Westbrook found Aaron Gordon in the final seconds to score the game-winning 3-pointer. It was his second playoff game-winner already. After the Thunder led for most of the second half, playing with fire finally burned them.
