Highlights: Golden State Warriors vs Oklahoma City Thunder Game 1 - western finals - May 16, 2016 result, recap and replay.
The Warriors led for much of the game, including by as many as 14, but the Thunder kept staying in it just enough to merit a belief that Kevin Durant or Russell Westbrook could win it for them.
And it was Durant, who was 2-of-11 in the fourth quarter and had missed five consecutive shots before rocking Andre Iguodala and drilling a 15-footer to put the Thunder up five with 30.1 seconds left. It wasn't a vintage, prototypical Durant performance -- 26 points on 10-of-30 shooting -- but it was in one regard: When the Thunder needed a bucket, Durant got it for them.
