News and Notes
Nov 7 G Kevin Durant left the Ford Center with few words for reporters Tuesday after falling to the Lakers in overtime. The Thunder's franchise player had a miserable fourth quarter and overtime, and his silent treatment extended beyond the media. "I just kept to myself," said Durant, who scored 27 points Friday against Houston. "People were text messaging me and I just left it alone and went right to sleep." He later called it the toughest loss of his young career. Durant air-balled a 30-footer for the win late in regulation and missed all four of his shots in the extra session. "I had the game in my hands twice and I didn't come through," he said. "But people told me that great players have a short memory, so that's what I have to learn how to do." Yahoo! Sports

Nov 7 Durant scored 27 points on 11 for 22 shooting and pulled forn nine rebounds in the Thunder's 105-94 loss at Houston on Friday.

Advice: Durant is off to a strong start to his third NBA season, averaging 24.2 points through five games.

Nov 3 Durant had a strange stat line in Tuesday's loss the Lakers. He scored 28 points on 10-of-24 shooting (8-8 FT), with five assists and four rebounds - but was 0-for-8 from beyond the arc and committed seven turnovers.

Recommendation: The points will always be there for Durant, as will the peripherals. But he's now a measly 2-for-20 from downtown to start the season, and in a game following an atrocious 3-for-21 shooting performance, Durant's lack of accuracy is becoming more of a concern.
