Nick Gallo (okcthunder.com) on last night’s Thunder win over the Suns: “The signature sequence in the Thunder’s 117-110 victory came in the third quarter, when on back-to-back possessions Russell Westbrook turned two of his squad’s defensive stops into fast break layups. That sounds pretty usual, right? Well instead of Westbrook attacking 94 feet, slaloming like a Porsche through defenders, the Thunder point guard’s buckets came off passes from Dennis Schröder and Paul George in the flow of a transition attack. Playing off the ball, Westbrook (23 points on 8-of-13 shooting, 9 rebounds, 7 assists), was able to catch while on the move without a set defender in front of him and then attack.
