Recap: Thunder at Nuggets

@RohdeOK 6:58 p.m. Scott Brooks left alone during pre-game interviews about death of his mother. Hugs and condolences, but no questions.

@RohdeOK 6:59 p.m. RT @LarryCoon: What's up, Twitterverse? I'm in Denver for Thunder-Nuggets, starting shortly.

@DarnellMayberry 7:00 p.m. RT @RohdeOK: Scott Brooks left alone during pre-game interviews about death of his mother. Hugs and condolences, but no questions.

@DarnellMayberry 7:00 p.m. RT @NBATV: YOU made the call- Thunders vs. Clippers on Tuesday's Fan Night at 10:30p/et on #NBATV!!! Now tell us who's going to win?

@anthonyVslater 7:01 p.m. Thunder-Nuggets about 10 minutes to tip. Including playoffs, OKC has won three of its past four in Denver.

@DarnellMayberry 7:04 p.m. All Russell Westbrook has done in his past three games is average 33 points, 5.3 rebounds and five assists. #Wowzers

@DarnellMayberry 7:06 p.m. With those numbers, Westbrook is tempting me to send out the first ever League Pass alert before the game has even started.

@DarnellMayberry 7:08 p.m. Another way of putting it. You might want to watch Thunder-Nuggets tonight.

@anthonyVslater 7:11 p.m. More impressive than Kevin Durant's 29.3 ppg is him doing it on 52 percent shooting. Highest mark of his career.

@DarnellMayberry 7:17 p.m. Smh at anybody who read Westbrook's numbers the last three games and all you can say is he needs to average more assists.

@anthonyVslater 7:18 p.m. Nominating Kosta Koufos for worst hair in the NBA. Plenty of candidates though.

@RohdeOK 7:19 p.m. Once again, strong showing of #thunder fans on the road. Very little offensive movement by OKC. Everything is isolation.

@RohdeOK 7:24 p.m. Last Wednesday, Kenneth Faried had five points in 20 1/2 minutes vs. #Thunder. Had six points (3/3 FG) in first six minutes tonight.

@RohdeOK 7:28 p.m. Layup drill continues for @russwest44 (10 points) Lawson defending Thabo. Iguodala stuck guarding Westbrook.

@RohdeOK 7:30 p.m. Nuggets have seven turnovers in first nine minutes, yet still lead #Thunder 21-18. Durant 0/3; rest of roster 8/11.

@anthonyVslater 7:37 p.m. Eleven players in the OKC-Denver game scored in the first quarter and none of them were named Kevin Durant. He went 0/3 with two turnovers.

@anthonyVslater 7:37 p.m. @scottrobin She did newsok.com/article/3747680

@okcthunder 7:38 p.m. KMart hits jumper as Q1 ends. #Thunder v #Nuggets tied @ 25. RWestbrook has 12 points. TV Companion, LIve Chat @ thunder.nba.com

@RohdeOK 7:41 p.m. Durant career-high 52 on Friday; scoreless (0/4) vs. Nuggets so far. Looking for first points at the line.

@RohdeOK 7:43 p.m. Durant last two games: 13/36 FG (0/5 so far tonight); 23/23 FT.

@anthonyVslater 7:45 p.m. @BAMOK Good question. Definitely been a while. I'll see if I can find it.

@RohdeOK 7:48 p.m. Durant's first FG comes at 7:35 of second quarter (1/6 FG), and Thunder still managed to be tied at 34.

@anthonyVslater 7:50 p.m. Andre Miller, on a switch, forced to guard Kevin Durant. It would be tough to find a bigger mismatch in basketball.

@RohdeOK 7:52 p.m. Denver instantly doubling on @KDTrey5 on every touch, forcing three turnovers and contested shots (1/6).

@anthonyVslater 7:54 p.m. The Thunder is 11/11 from the line tonight and 44/47 from there the past two games.

@RohdeOK 8:02 p.m. Thunder takes 11-10 lead in turnovers, also getting killed on the boards 20-12 (nine offensive rebounds for Denver).

@DarnellMayberry 8:04 p.m. @scottrobin Check my timeline.

@anthonyVslater 8:04 p.m. Sloppy first half in Denver. Teams have combined for 24 turnovers. Westbrook with five, KD with four.

@RohdeOK 8:05 p.m. Should have played this game in "Palm" Springs.

@RohdeOK 8:07 p.m. Four Olympians in this game -- @KDTrey5, @russwest44, Andre Iguodala and who else????

@anthonyVslater 8:07 p.m. Russell Westbrook to the locker room. Looks like he turned his right ankle.

@anthonyVslater 8:10 p.m. Denver up 51-50 on the Thunder at halftime. Westbrook with 19, Durant with 11 (but he's 1/7 shooting with four turnovers).

@DarnellMayberry 8:10 p.m. @LifeofJuanTwo Peeped that. Wonder if that was the reason.

@okcthunder 8:13 p.m. #Tight game in Denver. KD/Russ combine for 30. #Nuggets leads #Thunder 51-50 at halftime. thunder.nba.com

@RohdeOK 8:13 p.m. You'd be surprised how many people forget @sergeibaka9 RT @RohdeOK Four Olympians in this game -- @KDTrey5, @russwest44, Andre Iguodala and?

@anthonyVslater 8:25 p.m. Russell Westbrook back on the court, will start the second half. Of course he will.

@RohdeOK 8:25 p.m. Other Olympians were @TimofeyMozgov w/ Russia and Thunder's Joe Sharpe was Team USA assistant athletic trainer.

@RohdeOK 8:37 p.m. Westbrook, Ibaka and Martin have picked up the slack wonderfully as Durant still tries to get going from the field.

@DarnellMayberry 8:43 p.m. RT @BiGbAdBeNyO: @dailythunder and the legend of wolverine continues @DarnellMayberry

@DarnellMayberry 8:44 p.m. The fact that Perkins wasn't kicked out suggests the refs saw a flop. Only question left is will the league see the same?

@anthonyVslater 8:46 p.m. Thunder falling apart a bit in the third. Perkins flagrant, Ibaka technical, Gallinari raining threes. Denver up 76-70.

@RohdeOK 8:48 p.m. Thunder self-destructing: Flagrant-1 on Perk; technical on Serge; getting beat 7-0 in fastbreak points this quarter alone.

@anthonyVslater 8:48 p.m. Joe Flacco v Colin Kaepernick, one of them soon to be a Super Bowl winning quarterback. That'll be strange.

@RohdeOK 8:54 p.m. You tell me, flop or foul?

@okcthunder 8:58 p.m. 16 ties and 8 lead changes. #Thunder trails #Nuggets 81-79 headed to Q4. Westbrook has 23 points, Durant 22.

@RohdeOK 8:58 p.m. Thunder trails 81-79 through three. Does Durant (5/13) finally heat up from field? Is 18/44 FG (.409), but is 32/32 FT.

@DarnellMayberry 9:03 p.m. Who is this Corey Brewer guy?

@anthonyVslater 9:06 p.m. Eighteen turnovers for the Thunder tonight. Eleven combined for Westbrook/Durant. Killing them.

@DarnellMayberry 9:09 p.m. RT @nuggetsnews: OKC has 20 turnovers, ties most by #Nuggets opponent... BUT Den has 20 also, two away from tying season-high

@DarnellMayberry 9:10 p.m. What has gotten into Corey Brewer? His season-high is 27. He's got 22 points tonight.

@anthonyVslater 9:11 p.m. Eleven players in this Nuggets-Thunder game have at least two turnovers. Eleven!!

@DarnellMayberry 9:13 p.m. This is not looking like the Thunder's night...But OKC has won a ton of games where it doesn't look like its night.

@anthonyVslater 9:15 p.m. Thunder bench players not named Kevin Martin: 29 minutes, 0 points.

@DarnellMayberry 9:18 p.m. @dailythunder If he misses the next one you owe all your followers a beverage of their choice.

@DarnellMayberry 9:20 p.m. @dailythunder It's coming. You know it's coming.

@DarnellMayberry 9:20 p.m. Good timeout by Brooks.

@anthonyVslater 9:22 p.m. The Thunder has been outscored 57-41 in the fourth quarter of the past two games.

@DarnellMayberry 9:22 p.m. @6ronda7 Both. Only thing you missed was turnovers. Giving it away way too much in addition to the other two things.

@DarnellMayberry 9:23 p.m. RT @anthonyVslater: The Thunder has been outscored 57-41 in the fourth quarter of the past two games.

@DarnellMayberry 9:23 p.m. Russell Westbrook just blocked a halfcourt shot by Nuggets mascot Rocky. I kid you not.

@DarnellMayberry 9:25 p.m. Fans now booing Westbrook mercilessly as he touches the ball...He responds with a slashing layup.

@anthonyVslater 9:26 p.m. Fourth straight 30-point game for Russell Westbrook. Career-best streak.

@DarnellMayberry 9:26 p.m. RT @nuggetsnews: SuperMascot Rocky shoots backwards halfcourt shots during a fourth-quarter timeout of every game. If he makes one, fans ...

@RohdeOK 9:26 p.m. Another career night for #Thunder opponent. Corey Brewer has 26 points; career high is 27.

@DarnellMayberry 9:28 p.m. And here comes the Thunder...

@okcthunder 9:29 p.m. 4th qtr #comeback. 3ptrs from KD and KMart make it a one point game vs #Nuggets 1:01 left.

@DarnellMayberry 9:29 p.m. Got a great finish BREWEING in Denver. With 1:01 remaining the Nuggets lead the Thunder 107-106. #LeaguePassAlert

@DarnellMayberry 9:30 p.m. See what I did there? Corny, I know.

@DarnellMayberry 9:32 p.m. Russell Westbrook hits a deep 3-pointer to tie the game at 109 with 22.9 seconds remaining. #LeaguePassAlert

@anthonyVslater 9:32 p.m. Vintage Russell Westbrook line: 9/23 shooting, 34 points, 8 assists, 7 rebounds, 7 turnovers, no fear.

@okcthunder 9:33 p.m. Tied!

@DarnellMayberry 9:34 p.m. Overtime in Denver.

@DarnellMayberry 9:35 p.m. Great defense by Thabo Sefolosha on Ty Lawson's final isolation play. Bottled him up and forced a desperation shot as time expired.

@okcthunder 9:36 p.m. #overtime in Denver. Russ hits a 3 to tie it at 109. Watch extra #Thunder on @FSOklahoma pic.twitter.com/KOJgY1gV
