SOUNDBITE: (English) Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City Thunder forward, talks about his big night:
"We had 27 assists and that comes from just moving the ball and making the right plays and I think doing that kind of opened it up for me in the 4th (quarter) and I was able to make some shots but Russell (Westbrook) set some great screen, James (Harden) made some great passes and I was just trying to do my job and finish."
SOUNDBITE: (English) Gregg Popovich, San Antonio Spurs head coach, talks about Durant's play in the 4th quarter:
"He was great, you know we tried to do a couple of different things but his play was better than anything we did defensively that's for sure, he finished it off in fine fashion."
SOUNDBITE: (English) Scott Brooks, Oklahoma City Thunder head coach, talks about the Spurs and Durant's play:
"They're a great team, they're a team that plays great defense they're not just gonna continue to give him looks, but I give him credit he opened up the defence by making passes and that's what our guys did tonight those three playmakers did a great job of finding our bigs for open shots."
