Latest Highlights

The Sixers led the Thunder by 5 with under a minute to play but Kevin Durant erased that lead with a deuce and a trey, before helping to power the Thunder over the Sixers in overtime 110-105. Before that gut wrenching finish the Sixers played very well on both sides of the ball. Okc did shoot 50% from the field but only Durant with 34 and 16 rebounds, and Russel Westbrook with 27 and 12 assists got the best of them. The Sixers meanwhile countered with Andre Iguodala's 14, 8 assists, and 6 rebounds, Elton Brand's 15 and 13 assists, Jrue Holiday's 22, Jodie Meeks 17, and Lou Williams 22. Unfortunately none of those 5 could step up and deliver the knockout blow at the end when it counted and that's what cost them the win tonight. They'll get them next time though, well if there is a next time. Both teams would have to reach the finals for that to happen.
