The Oklahoma City Thunder are in a groove right now, having won eight of their last ten including last night's 127-117 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers at Staples Center. Russell Westbrook recorded another triple double, Paul George scored a game-high 31 points and Carmelo Anthony chipped in 22, surpassing Patrick Ewing for 21st on the NBA's all-time scoring list.
After last night's win, Carmelo was handling a post-game interview on the court when Westbrook snuck up behind him with a cup of cold water, prompting a hilarious scene that unfolded on live tv.
With last night's 22-point performance, Melo moved to 21st overall on the NBA's all-time scoring list with 24,829 points. He passed Ewing, who racked up 24,815 points during his career. Next on the scoring list is the logo, Jerry West, who scored 25,192 over the course of his 14-year NBA career.
Following an 8-12 start to the season, the Thunder are now 22-17, which puts them in fifth place in the Western Conference just a couple games back of the fourth placed Minnesota Timberwolves.
