Regular Season Round 51: Oklah.City T. - Houston R. 117-105

Date: December 15, 2010
With the way the Oklahoma City Thunder are clicking right now, even losing Kevin Durant to foul trouble couldn't knock them off track. Durant scored 32 points but was on the bench with four fouls when the Thunder took control late in the third quarter on their way to a 117-105 win against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night. Oklahoma City won its fourth straight game, shooting better than 50 percent each time. And this time, the Thunder hit a season-high 57.7 percent of their shots. "The shots are just falling for us," Jeff Green said. "We're getting great open looks." Green scored the first six points in an 8-0 run to finish the third quarter for the Thunder, and Eric Maynor's jumper in the final 2 seconds made it 87-76 before Durant returned to start the fourth. James Harden tacked on a 3-pointer to open the fourth and push Oklahoma City's lead to 14, and the Rockets were never closer than a dozen points after that. The Thunder had been up six when Durant went to the bench with 6:45 left in the third quarter. "We just had to make a run," Green said. "We knew our guy was out and we just had to pull it together." Green finished with 21 points, Russell Westbrook scored 17 and Harden had 16. Thabo Sefolosha added a season-high 15 points and nine rebounds as Oklahoma City moved to 8-0 this season when he scores 10 points or more. Kevin Martin scored 22 points and Luis Scola added 18 for Houston, which added swingman Terrence Williams from New Jersey and traded Jermaine Taylor to Sacramento in separate deals before the game. *Courtesy of www.foxsportshouston.com
