I think this was probably our best all-around team performance of the season. Everyone really seemed to fill their role well and their weren't too many periods where the ball-movement in our offense just stopped. Could probably put almost everyone up for this one, but here are the ones that stood out most to me:
Player (points/rebounds/assists)
Westbrook (19/5/11)
Durant (25/6/1)
Green (21/10/0)
Krstic (11/7/0)

Re: Thunder @ Spurs POG
I want to take Green because his defense was stellar but I'm starting to get concerned with all the threes he's taking (and missing).
Westbrook was quiet in the first but ended up playing a nice game, didn't make many mistakes, and hit the big shot at the end (the runner off the offensive rebound). I'll go with Westbrook.

spot on, said everything I was going to say. Krstic also played pretty well especially in the 3rd to help us take the lead.

Re: Thunder @ Spurs POG
I was still concerned about the closing out, missed free throws some sloppy passes. It's obviously a better result then the Laker game but playing with the lead in under two minutes is still a work in progress.
BTW what was with the ref call 3 seconds left where the Spur fouled our guys before the ball was inbounded so zero time off the clock? If they are in the penalty wouldn't that normally have been free throws then our possession again? If a team can do that and not lose any time I would imagine all teams would be doing it in close games and the NBA last 3 minutes of the fourth quarter would get even more ridiculously long. That had to have been a blown call.

If you do not know how good a basketball player Gary Payton was just go and stand near him for a little while, there's a good chance he'll come over and tell you. - Ahmad Rashad

I vote Team Defense as player of the game. I think everyone did the job they are ecpected to do.
