The Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Atlanta Hawks at home, 124-109. A game after shutting down the Cavaliers, OKC followed a similar blueprint tonight. After getting off to a slow (and sloppy) start, the Thunder used a huge 2nd quarter run, outscoring Atlanta 38-20, to build a 20 point halftime lead enabling them to glide to victory.
The Thunder were once again led by Russell Westbrook, who followed up a huge bounce-back game against the Cavs with a near-triple double tonight, finishing with 23 on 8-15 shooting to go with 10 rebounds and 9 assists.
