The Oklahoma City Thunder seized early control of Sunday's Game 2 of the NBA Finals and never let go en route to a 123-107 win. With the win, the Thunder tie the series at 1-1 and avoid digging an 0-2 deficit on its home court before the series shifts to Indianapolis for Game 3.

The Indiana Pacers are on a storybook run this postseason, but Game 2 of the NBA Finals will be a forgettable chapter. There was no late plot twist. There was no heroic performance from the team's protagonist, Tyrese Haliburton. There was no deeper message to be read between the lines.
