Russell Westbrook was one rebound shy of breaking Oscar Robertson’s record and the Westbrook Show was in full effect tonight. With 14 seconds left in regulation, Russ hit a clutch three-pointer over Tony Allen to put the Thunder up 4 points. Russ ended the night with 45 points, 9 rebounds, 10 assists and 5 steals. He hit a career-high 8 three-pointers and willed the Thunder to victory.
If you're wondering, Westbrook has had seven games this season where he's been either a rebound or assist short of a triple-double.

The Thunder really emphasized scoring at the rim and playing in transition in the first half.
