As Yogi Ferrell hit a 3 to put the Mavs up 91 – 78 with less than four minutes left to play, I started to type out “Well, Russ tried his best, but he just can’t win them all by himself”. Throughout the next three plus minutes, Russ decided to prove me dead wrong as he put the Thunder on his back and carried them to an amazing comeback victory against the Dallas Mavericks, 92 – 91.
Up until these last few minutes, the Thunder had not played like a team that had any chance of pulling off the victory tonight in Dallas.
