Durant is the man in OKC

Great article in SI.com about how Kevin Durant has turned from a defensively liability to a defensive assest and how with him on board, the Thunder are winning with defense.

Thunder are third in the Western Conference in defensive efficiency and third in the entire Association in field goal percentage allowed, while they are actuall giving up fewer points per possession with Durant on the floor vs. him off the floor, which was not true in his first two years in the league.

Thunder v. Spurs tonight. Should be fun.

As someone from Portland, OR, I would sincerely appreciate it if you would stop writing about how well Mr. Durant brings the ruckus to the court. It hurts.

Sorry David: that Oden pick is not looking too good. You guys still have a great player, B. Roy, and a fun team though
