Game Three of the Western Conference Semi-Finals is between the San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder. OKC evened up the series by letting LaMarcus Aldridge take tough shots while clamping down on San Antone's other stars in Game Two, so they would be looking to adjust as the series moved to the Sooner State, and that meant giving more of a green light to Kawhi Leonard.

Also getting some better looks would be Danny Green, who puts the visitors up by three in the first quarter.

San Antonio then bears down on defense as Manu Ginobili draws the charge against Dion Waiters.

Another veteran would contribute when the trey by David West puts the Spurs in front by 15.

OKC would work to get better shots after half-time, including this trey by Kevin Durant.

The Thunder soon take the lead, and then Russell Westbrook hits from outside to put them up by four.

But the Black & Silver tie it up before Tony Parker puts them in front with a pair of his 19 points.

West helps seal the win by poking the ball away from Westbrook, then Leonard drives the other way for two of his game high 31, and the Spurs lead the series two games to one.

In the East, Kyle Korver tries to help Atlanta turn around their fortunes.

And another of his five treys would put the Hawks up five against Cleveland.

Al Horford then gets in on the act, and the ATL lead the Cavaliers by 10, as the hosts try to bounce back from their blowout loss in Game Two.

The Cavs charge back by turning to Channing Frye. The veteran scoring 27 points, including seven treys.

Frye continues to turn back the clock as LeBron James passes ahead to him for the fastbreak dunk, and Cleveland goes in front by three.

LBJ puts the exclamation point on the comeback by posterizing Korver. (REPLAY) James with 24 points, 13 rebounds, and 8 assists.

But Friday really is Frye's day, as he adds his final trey.

Kevin Love would contribute 21 points and 15 boards, and the Cavaliers lead the series three games to none.
