OKC Thunder Round 2 Schedule Set With Tip-Times, TV Networks

The Oklahoma City Thunder punched its ticket to the second round of the NBA Playoffs long ago, before any other team clinched its spot.

This added another long layoff to the Thunder's resume. After a week long layoff awaiting the NBA Play-In Tournament winner for the No. 8 seed, the OKC Thunder swept the Memphis Grizzlies in a series that ended last Saturday.

Now, the Oklahoma City Thunder await the winner of the LA Clippers-Denver Nuggets first round series. A best-of-7 set that is going the distance with the Clippers and Nuggets squaring off in a Game 7 on Saturday, May 3.

On Friday night, the Houston Rockets staved off elimination by beating the Golden State Warriors in the Chase Center to force a Game 7 back in Houston on Sunday, May 3.

That allowed the Oklahoma City Thunder to learn its Round 2 schedule and the league to put out its slate of games for the next round with just two series yet to wrap up.
