Durant, Thunder conclude trip in Big DBasketball Betting Lines04/03/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - MVP candidate Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Thunder are nearing the franchise's first postseason appearance since the 2004-05 campaign, and will close out a three-game road trip tonight against the Dallas Mavericks at American Airlines Center. The Thunder haven't reached the playoffs since the Seattle SuperSonics won the Northwest Division back in 2004-05, and a victory tonight would clinch a postseason berth. Oklahoma City opened its current trek with back-to-back victories against the 76ers and Celtics, and is coming off Wednesday's 109-104 triumph at Boston. Durant pumped in 37 points and Jeff Green buried two three- pointers in the final two minutes to lead the way. "In order for us to beat the best we have to continue to work," Green said. "We've been doing that each time out. This year we've been fortunate enough to play them again and we came out on top." Russell Westbrook tallied 21 points and 10 assists for the Thunder, who are sixth in the Western Conference, one game ahead of eighth-seeded Portland and a half-game in front of No. 7 seed San Antonio. Dating back to Christmas day, Durant leads the NBA with a 30.9 ppg, and is currently tied with Cleveland's LeBron James with 29.7 points per contest. It was the Thunder's 46th victory of the season, doubling the team's win total from all of last year. Oklahoma City is 22-15 as the guest in 2009-10 and owns a 22-7 record dating back to January 29th. Dallas, meanwhile, is nearing its first Southwest Division title since the 2006-07 season, and hopes to get back on track Saturday night. It had a three- game winning streak stopped with Thursday's 97-82 loss to the Orlando Magic in the opener of a three-game homestand. Dirk Nowitzki ended with 24 points and six rebounds in a losing effort. Jason Terry and J.J. Barea had 16 points apiece off the bench for the Mavericks, who are 3 1/2 games ahead of San Antonio in the division standings and tied with Phoenix for the second seed in the Western Conference. "We've got to continue to work to get better," Dallas head coach Rick Carlisle said. "Look, we want the best seed possible. We are trying to get to number two, or number one, if something happened and the Lakers completely fell off the face of the earth. But playing your best at the right time is the real critical thing." Carlisle's bunch will also welcome Memphis to Big D and is 26-12 as the host this season. Dallas has won two of three matchups with Oklahoma City this season and 21 of the previous 26 meetings between the teams. The Oklahoma City franchise has lost nine straight and 14 of its last 15 at Dallas.
