The Oklahoma City Thunder

B. Like most of the season, Russell Westbrook was the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night. He was unstoppable for large sections of the game. Westbrook contributed 46 points, 11 rebounds, and nine assists on 16-for-33 shooting. Somehow the Thunder lost. His pull-up jumper was particularly effective, though perhaps he relied on it a bit too much. An 11-for-13 performance from the free-throw line helped make up for that. He didn’t have much help on offense. The Thunder’s second leading scorer was <a rel=. Western Conference. 16-12. OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER
