Oklahoma City controlled the game from the opening quarter, outscoring Golden State 34–23 in the first period and extending that advantage throughout, with a particularly dominant fourth quarter (36 points) that put the game out of reach. The Thunder's ball movement was evident in their 34 assists against 13 turnovers, compared to Golden State's 23 assists and 16 turnovers. W. Richard and M. Moody each scored 13 points for the Warriors in a losing effort. The 37-point margin far exceeded the Vegas total line of 226.5, underscoring Oklahoma City's comprehensive superiority.
