Generally, when looking for great games people gravitate towards performances where their team wins, but on this list sometimes the performance trumps the team result. While Thunder lost this game by two vs the eventual lowly Thunder, Westbrook's performance was simply fantastic and could not be overlooked. He scored 41 points on 14-21 shooting (13-18 from the free throw line), 12 rebounds, and 16 assists. The Thunder needed everything they could get from Westbrook as they were working with several new players and trying to find their identity post Kevin Durant.

Not many people have been able to combine an aggressive scoring punch and sublime assists totals like Westbrook in NBA history, which really makes this game stand out. To get 41 points and 16 assists while only registering two turnovers is really a unique game. Westbrook shouldered such a load in this game and still managed to be hyper-efficient in both shooting and passing, something that should never be lost on people who look to detract greatly from his game.
