Thunder use big 3rd quarter to down Nets (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Kevin Durant scored nine of his 18 points in the third quarter, when the Oklahoma City Thunder outscored the New Jersey Nets 31-14 on the way to a 94-85 victory Monday night. The Thunder treated a crowd estimated at 5,000 to the team's 10th win of the season. Icy weather held the Ford Center well below the 18,000-plus who had attended the first 23 home games.
