Kevin Durant did his part in Game 1 for OKC with 33 points and 11 rebounds. However, despite putting up 29 points Russell Westbrook struggled, hitting just 9-for-23 shots (only 4-for-14 from close range) with seven turnovers.

In reality Game 1 was won inside as Memphis’ Zach Randolph had a playoff career-high 34 points and 10 rebounds and Marc Gasol added 20 points and 13 boards against overmatched OKC big men Kendrick Perkins, Serge Ibaka and Co. Randolph and Gasol each scored 20 points in the same regular-season game only once this season, but they dominated the Spurs and have started the same way here. The two big men scored 18 points, committed no turnovers, and shot almost 80 percent on post-up plays in Game 1. During the regular season, Randolph averaged 26.5 points, 13.0 rebounds and 1.5 steals against the Thunder as Memphis won the series 3-1 (his most points averaged against all but one team). But adding Perkins, who didn’t play in any of those four games, was supposed to be a remedy for that. Memphis is now plus-48 in points in the paint in these playoffs.
