With just under four minutes to play in the third quarter the Thunder took their first lead of the game since the early part of the first period on a Russell Westbrook drive that would give the triple-double machine his 26th and 27th points of the game. The Spurs looked like they might lose another game, but the Spurs would not lose this one, despite giving up their once 18-point advantage over the visiting Thunder thanks to some great team defense and a monster fourth quarter from Kawhi Leonard.
The game started off pretty well for the good guys, which wasn’t too surprising after the team lost their last two games.
