Bradley Beal, playing quite the pristine game, took the ball wide of his body and fired a one-handed bounce pass. Just not quite wide enough.
Paul George deflected the ball, deadened it, actually, and then zipped his own bounce pass, into the open court for Russell Westbrook to run down. Which he did and dunked to give the Thunder some third-quarter cushion in an eventual 121-112 victory over the Washington Wizards.
Westbrook and George. Two great players that go great together. By the testimony of a great cloud of witnesses and the stars themselves.
The Thunder has won six straight and is starting to look like a team that could make some playoff noise.
