Nobody took for granted that the first game for the revamped San Antonio Spurs was going to be a cakewalk because they now sported a Big five instead of a big three. And a cakewalk it was not. What it was, though, was a hard scrabble match of X’s and O’s and two teams that sported players who looked as if in mid-season form. In the end, the Spurs succumbed to a couple of ill timed errors and the will of Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and the entire Thunder squad that took the 112-106 win. Kawhi Leonard led the Spurs with a career regular season high of 32 points while Westbrook finished the game with 33 points.
