Thunder strike back

Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook are back to their old selves after getting thrashed by 17 points to open their series against the Clippers. Oklahoma City has a 2-1 lead over Los Angeles in the Western Conference semifinal series heading into today’s Game 4 ( 12:30 p.m., ABC). The Thunder have won two games in a row after a 17-point shellacking that was their worst loss since moving to Oklahoma City. Durant topped 30 points for the second straight game and Westbrook just missed another triple- double in taking Game 3 on the Clippers’ court. Durant says Game 4 will be the toughest of the series. – Associated Press
