In this game, as a member of the Thunder's three young ones, Holmgren took the lead in the first quarter, scoring 15 points on 5-of-5 shooting in the first quarter, helping the Thunder establish a 13-point lead, and even scored 26 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks in the whole game. It's a rare thing to have such a performance in the playoffs for the first time in my career.

As the other one of the Thunder's three less, Alexander, turned on the offensive firepower in the whole court, scoring 33 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals, and when the team fell into a scoring drought, he repeatedly stepped up to help the team, and he also made 3 three-pointers in this game.

The last member of the Thunder three young people feels stable, Jalen Williams, as Harden Jr., is not only stable on the offensive end, but also does not drag the team back at all on the offensive end, and uses long arms to interfere with the opponent's shooting many times, and cut down 21 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists in the full game.

And Josh Giddey, who has repeatedly refused to renew the team's contract and wants a 4-year $160 million contract, has not been so present in this game, only scoring 6 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist in the first three quarters, and finally brushing his data to 13 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists in garbage time, and there were two consecutive empty three-point scenes in the game, which is very undesirable for a point guard, and Giddey only got 2 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists in the first game, and the Thunder head coach no longer trusts him!
