The Thunder led by just one at 92-91 when Dion Waiters in-bounded the ball right near the Spurs’ bench, and didn’t panic when Kevin Durant, his apparent initial option, didn’t flash open. He dished it to Westbrook on the baseline, and as he had for the previous 24 minutes the Thunder point guard infused his will into the game. Leaping right over Spurs big men like David West for rebounds, hustling for loose balls and generating chaos out of thin air, Westbrook was a sight to behold.
