Thunder all but clinch the No. 4 spot
Kevin Durant - F - Oklahoma City Thunder
April 6, 2011 - 1:50 AM ET
Kevin Durant scored 32 points on 10-of-21 shooting (1-of-5 from deep, 11-of-12 from the foul line) with nine rebounds, one assist, and one block in the Thunder's win over the Nuggets in Denver on Tuesday.
The win all but guarantees that the Thunder will keep the four-seed and play the Nuggets with home court advantage, so the win on the Nuggets' home floor is good for a number of reasons. Russell Westbrook had 18 points on an ice-cold 5-of-17 shooting with six assists, Serge Ibaka had nine points, 11 boards, and two blocks, and James Harden scored just 13 points in the win.
