While the main storyline of the series was the battle between the top two NBA MVP candidates, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Nikola Jokic, there was a significant reunion that not many people were talking about.

Westbrook spent his first 11 seasons on the Thunder. He blossomed from a project player to an MVP winner. When he calls it quits and makes the Hall of Fame, expect him to don OKC's uniform. Everybody remembers their first love and the Thunder's shown that cliche also translates to professional sports.

Thunder All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander spoke on his MVP race with Nuggets All-Star Nikola Jokic after Sunday's 127-103 win. Gilgeous-Alexander finished with 40 points, eight rebounds, five assists, and three blocks.

Russell Westbrook finished the loss with four points, 11 rebounds, five assists and one block while shooting 1/9 from the field in 31 minutes of playing time. Many people reacted to his performance on social media.
