The Oklahoma City Thunder (41-12) battle the Portland Trail Blazers (36-15) at Moda Center tonight in Portland in a huge game in the NBA this week. The game starts at 10:00 p.m. ET and can be watched online through free live stream via the link provided below (free for subscribers to the NBA network).

The Trail Blazers led by Damian Lillard and LaMarcus Aldridge have defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder two out of three meetings in spite of Durant's awesome individual stats, and they'll try to win the season series and challenge the Thunder for Northwest Division.

Durant is scoring at least 31.2 points per game. However, he's taken his performance to another level against the rival Trail Blazers. In the first three games versus Portland this season, Durant averaged 38.7 points per game which his highest average versus any team this season. In addition, Durant shot at least 54% versus Portland.

"MVP performance," said Trail Blazers Head Coach Terry Stotts after that game. "To score 46 points on 25 shots, six of seven from 3-point range, and I think he got a couple of his shots blocked. It was a remarkable performance. He made shots when they mattered. He took his time and didn't force it. He took what was there, and he made some great shots."

Durant scored 41 points on just 22 field-goal attempts, 10 rebounds and nine assists in helping Oklahoma City defeat the New York Knicks by the final score of 112-100 on Sunday.

He also was mostly responsible for allowing Carmelo Anthony to score only 15 points on 5-of-19 shooting two days ago.

"I tried to rely on my teammates," said Durant adding. "They did a great job of helping me out and building a wall behind me."
