2014 NBA Playoffs: Oklahoma City Thunder's wild ride

Lights Out In OKC

The easy joke to make here is to say the Thunder shot the lights out, but what really happened was much more appropriate.

Right before halftime of Game 2, with the Thunder playing a powerful first half of explosive offensive basketball, the lights in Chesapeake Energy Arena went dim.

The culprit? A power surge brought on by severe weather in the area.

The two teams played out the few remaining seconds in near darkness, but came out of halftime to a relit arena. The extra energy might've been provided by Westbrook and Durant, who nearly became the first teammates in playoff history to both record triple-doubles as the Thunder evened up the series with a 112-101 victory.
