woot!! omg.. what an incredible game... we beat the Spurs. I can't believe it. I love this team.
This from the Thunder.NBA blog:
It was so exciting!
FOURTH QUARTER
Game is tied at 65 three minutes into the fourth. The Thunder has continued to come up with defensive stops. Nick Collison has done a fine job of denying Drew Gooden the ball in the post. Thabo Sefolosha just stole the ball from Roger Mason, which resulted in an OKC basket. Sefolosha has three steals tonight.
Chucky Atkins’ three-pointer just gave OKC its first lead of the game at 70-67 with 7:28 left. It happened thanks to Kyle Weaver’s block on Tim Duncan.
A quick update: Heisman Trophy winner Sam Bradford is at tonight’s game.
Russell Westbrook just got penalized for his freakish athleticism. We’ve seen Westbrook sky above an opponent many a time to snatch a rebound. He just did it again, but the officials clearly thought he went over the back of an opponent. Either way, Westbrook just made up for it with a basket on OKC’s next possession. The Thunder still has a 72-69 lead with 4:25 left.
Right now the officials are slapping the Thunder with fouls for even the slightest bit of contact around the rim. Still, OKC has maintained a lead - it’s ahead, 76-72, with 2:52 left. Both teams have their starting lineups on the floor.
We’ll soon see whether the Thunder can come up with two or three defensive stops here to seal the victory. It has a 78-74 lead with 1:04 left.
The Spurs can tie or take the lead with their upcoming possession. First, Tony Parker made it a two-point deficit when he scored off another high screen by Tim Duncan, taking it to the rim for a layup. They just forced Russell Westbrook into an off-balance jumper and now can hold the ball for the game’s final possession with 18 seconds left.
The Thunder just held on for a quality win over the Spurs, 78-76.
