On Monday night, the first round of Game 2s was headlined by the two series between the Philadelphia 76ers/New York Knicks and Denver Nuggets/Los Angeles Lakers. Both games saw the officials heavily scrutinized during the postgame availability, but delivered on the entertainment meter with one-score games. Jamal Murray came alive in the second half to help the Nuggets cover a 20-point deficit, delivering the buzzer-beater and giving Denver a 2-0 lead in the series. In the Mecca of professional basketball, the Knicks clawed back in the final moments to give Joel Embiid and the Sixers buzzer-booty too. Music provided by Fox Sports 1380 El Paso
