/anthonyVslater'>@anthonyVslater 8:12 p.m. When Kendrick Perkins scores double-digits, the Thunder are 15-1. He's got 10 tonight. OKC cruising to a win.

@anthonyVslater 8:03 p.m. Serge Ibaka with a season-high seven blocks tonight. He's been a defensive force inside.

@anthonyVslater 7:56 p.m. Russell Westbrook has hit three 3s in the past two minutes of game time. Hadn't hit three in a game this year before that.

@anthonyVslater 7:50 p.m. Russell Westbrook with 21 points, 8 assists, 5 rebounds and 2 steals through three quarters. Thunder up 79-73.

@DarnellMayberry 7:49 p.m. Russell Westbrook banks in a halfcourt shot to beat the third quarter buzzer and give the Thunder a 79-73 lead.

@anthonyVslater 7:37 p.m. It's great that Serge Ibaka has confidence in his three-point corner jumper. Still doesn't mean he should be taking them.

@DarnellMayberry 7:32 p.m. As Kyrie Irving drains two 3s, Russell Westbrook is barely crossing halfcourt. Effort.

@anthonyVslater 7:20 p.m. Kevin Martin is shooting 53 percent from three this season, hitting at least one in every game and going 17-32 overall.

@anthonyVslater 7:06 p.m. OKC up 56-47 on Cavs at half. KD (11 points/4 boards), K-Mart (10 points/4 boards) and Westbrook (13 points/6 assists) all star.

@DarnellMayberry 7:04 p.m. Still awaiting an explanation on Ibaka's tap out that wasn't credited. But stat crew has been consistent. K-Mart had a tap go elsewhere, too

@DarnellMayberry 7:01 p.m. Correction: Ibaka grabbed a rebound on a loose ball foul. He correctly was not credited w/ a board. Stat crew was correct.

@anthonyVslater 6:58 p.m. OKC's Big Three (KD/Westbrook/Martin) a combined 13-20 shooting for 32 points in the first half. Thunder up 47-42.

@anthonyVslater 6:50 p.m. Kevin Martin doing his thing again tonight: 4-4 shooting for a game-high 10 points in the first half. He's been great since arrival.

@anthonyVslater 6:50 p.m. Kevin Martin doing his thing again tonight: 4-4 shooting for a game-high 10 points in the first half. He's been great all year.

@anthonyVslater 6:40 p.m. @JoeReynolds24 My fault. Thanks for correction.

@anthonyVslater 6:37 p.m. Strangest stat of the first quarter - Cavs PF Anderson Varajao has the same amount of assists (4) as the entire Thunder team.

@DarnellMayberry 6:36 p.m. After one, the Thunder leads the Cavs 27-21.

@anthonyVslater 6:36 p.m. OKC ends the first quarter on an 20-4 run, capped by Kevin Martin buzzer beater. Thunder lead the Cavs 27-21.

@DarnellMayberry 6:34 p.m. Home stat crew not so friendly to Serge Ibaka. He's been credited with two boards. He should have four.

@anthonyVslater 6:20 p.m. Cavs hot early, 8-10 shooting for a 17-7 lead over OKC. Anderson Varajao with four assists already.

@anthonyVslater 5:58 p.m. Great point guard matchup in OKC tonight: Russell Westbrook vs Kyrie Irving / Thunder vs Cavaliers. Tip in about 10 minutes.

@anthonyVslater 5:45 p.m. @mosesbrewer Good question. I'd guess Chelf, based on his performance Saturday, but that's with no inside knowledge.
