03/14/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two of the Western Conference's top teams jockey for playoff position in Oklahoma City Sunday as Kevin Durant and the Thunder welcome the Utah Jazz to town.
The Jazz are currently the fourth seed in the jumbled West, 1 1/2 games ahead of No. 5 Oklahoma City.
Utah fell to 2-1 on a four-game road trip Friday in Milwaukee when John Salmons scored 24 points and hit a pair of important free throws with less than 20 seconds to go, as the Bucks continued an impressive homestand with a 95-87 win over the Jazz.
Carlos Boozer paced the Jazz with 26 points and 14 boards before being ejected in the final seconds, and Utah had a four-game win streak snapped. Mehmet Okur contributed 20 points and 11 rebounds, and C.J. Miles had 17 points in a reserve role.
Deron Williams scored 11 points, dished out nine assists and grabbed six boards for Utah.
"They made us hurry on a couple things, they forced us out on the floor," Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan said of the Bucks. "They did a great job, they played extremely well and they made the shots they had to win the ball game."
Utah played most of the second half against the Bucks without forward Andrei Kirilenko, who strained his left calf, while Williams aggravated a left shoulder injury.
Kirilenko is questionable for tonight's game but Williams is expected to play for Utah, which hasn't lost back-to-back games since a three-game losing streak from Dec. 31-Jan. 4.
The Thunder, meanwhile, were a bit lackadaisical in their last affair but came out on top of a 104-102 decision over the hapless New Jersey Nets on Friday. Kevin Durant poured in 32 points and pulled down 12 rebounds in that one.
Durant's 30-point game was his 36th this season, breaking Spencer Haywood's franchise mark set from the 1972-73 season.
Jeff Green had a season-high 27 points to go with six rebounds for the Thunder, who have won four in a row overall. Russell Westbrook tallied 11 points and 10 assists. Nenad Krstic and Nick Collison each registered 10 points for Oklahoma City, which has also won five straight on its home floor.
"He's unstoppable," Durant said of Green. "He's so strong going to the basket, he can shoot the three. He has one of the best pump-fakes in the game, so that allows him to get to the rim as well. He's so athletic too, so he did a great job of getting us going early today."
The Thunder have won both games against the Jazz so far this season, including an 87-86 thriller on Dec. 31 at the Ford Center.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
