In the long arc of championship pursuits, Tuesday night in Oklahoma City offered a reminder that depth and composure are often more decisive than singular brilliance. The Thunder defeated the Spurs 127-114 in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals, moving to within one victory of the NBA Finals on the strength of a collective effort that no single defender could contain. With the Knicks already waiting, the question now turns to whether San Antonio can find the resilience to extend a series that has largely bent toward Oklahoma City's will.
