This was a very rare breed of posterisation… It was a dunk that could’ve been just like LeBron’s baptism of Ben McLemore.
But because OKC’s Kevin Durant and Houston’s James Harden are such bro’s they both move out of the way of each other. Just a little so that it wasn’t so nasty that Twitter would explode.
But it wasn’t just during the dunk the brotherly love was in full effect. KD was in the midst of doing a post dunk “Westbrook like” flex and shout as you saw in the video but then Harden goes and gives him a pat on the back.
It’s moments like this where the heat of battle can be doused in seconds. I’ll give it a pass since these two are tight. But come the second half of the season. I want none of that…
And in terms of the overall game. The dunk pretty much said it all. OKC completely topped the Rockets. 86-117 was the final score in Chesapeake Energy Arena.
