It's not so easy any more for the Los Angeles Lakers to push around the Oklahoma City Thunder. Kevin Durant scored 33 points, Russell Westbrook added 19 and the Thunder beat the Lakers 100-85 Thursday night to head into the All-Star break tied for the league's best record. "It's a regular game for us," Durant said, downplaying any significance of a midseason victory. Of course, we respect those guys and they're champions and they've won multiple rings but it's another game for us. You're just trying to get better every single day. The Lakers are 20-14 and sitting in fifth place in the West. "It's cool that we're winning games but we can't be complacent," Durant said. We've been on a good roll lately. We've got to just keep working hard. It's not over yet. We're glad we're going into the break with some wins but I think it's important for us to come out of the break with some energy and some momentum. They did a great job. They took advantage of opportunities when they presented themselves, jumped out to a good cushion and we could never get the game back in balance," Bryant said. His two-handed slam got the Lakers within 81-74 with 7 minutes remaining, only for Oklahoma City to come right back by scoring the next seven points on a three-point play by Westbrook and dunks by Harden and Perkins. Los Angeles didn't get any closer than nine after that. "Going into this game, we really wanted to keep them out of the paint, keep them away from the basket and rebound the shot," Thunder coach Scott Brooks said. Just give them one shot - one and done, and get out and run. Harden scored 16 and Ibaka added 11 points and 13 rebounds for Oklahoma City, which limited L.A. to 39 percent shooting while making 47 percent of its own shots. "We have to work too hard to get points going up against defenses that are set and double-teams all the time," Bryant said. Having a little bit more movement, it'll free Andrew up, free Pau up, free myself up to where I don't have to work against two guys all the time. Bryant said he didn't have any expectations for where the Lakers would be at the midpoint of their first season under Mike Brown and considered himself "neutral" about their play so far.
