LeBron vs Durant

LeBron James usually gets the better of Kevin Durant but not tonight...
When this was over, Durant’s streak of 30-point games hit 12, and the Thunder’s winning streak increased to 10 games when OKC put a 112-95 pasting on the two-time defending champs.
“They beat us," James said. “Outclassed? I don’t know if I want to go that far with it."
He might when he views the tape. The Heat owned the first five minutes, taking an 18-point lead. Then over the final three-plus quarters, the Thunder did outclass James’ squad. OKC went on a 70-point rampage in the second and third quarters, making 11 three-pointers. The Thunder had 16 threes for the game — 13 more than the Heat — and did to Miami what the Heat does to everyone else, turning the Heat over 21 times for 25 points.
“They got whatever they wanted," James admitted.
