Dunk Happy Heat and Thunder Are Off To Fast Start

The Miami Heat and Oklahoma City Thunder haven't even played a half of basketball and they've exchanged highlight-reel dunks.

The Heat and Thunder are swapping highlight reels tonight with both teams out there running the floor and throwing alley-oops seemingly every other possession. Dwyane Wade threw this lob to Hassan Whiteside off a quick little pick and roll for two of Whiteside's 10 (so far) points and it feels like they've all come on dunks.

The Thunder are no slouches, though, and they've had their share of fireworks, including this oop in transition from Kevin Durant to Serge Ibaka.

Update: No sooner do I post this than Whiteside has to leave the game with a gnarly looking ankle injury.
