Game 1 - San Antonio Spurs at Oklahoma City Thunder

October 28 at Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, OK
ESPN

What an excellent opener for 200 Game Season as the Thunder erased a seven-point, fourth quarter deficit to win 112-106.

Russell Westbrook had a great night - 33 points and 10 assists - but it was back up guard Dion Waiters who hit the tying (pull-up jumper with 2:12 left) and go-ahead (fall away at 1:34) baskets for Oklahoma City.

Kawhi Leonard is a pleasure to watch and Wednesday he led the Spurs with his first-career 30-point game (he scored 32) and played excellent defense throughout. I can't believe he hasn't yet made an all-star team, but I think that changes this season.

* ESPN's Doris Burke interviewed new OKC coach Billy Donovan before the start of the fourth and he had this to say about Westbrook:

"He's been great all year long."

All one hour and 54 minutes long?
