OKLAHOMA CITY -- The Oklahoma City Thunder have finished a stretch of beating up on the NBA's weaker teams.

 

Kevin Durant scored 25 points to lead the Thunder to their 10th win in 11 games, 101-91 over the New Orleans Hornets on Wednesday night.

 

Now the Western Conference leaders will get to see what they can do on the road.

 

After wins this week at home over New Orleans and Detroit, and road wins against sub-.500 teams New Jersey and Boston, the Thunder embark on a three-game trip starting at Golden State on Friday.

 

"It's a challenge we can handle," said Oklahoma City reserve James Harden. "We live for situations like this. It will be tough."

 

The trip also takes them to Los Angeles to face the Clippers and to Dallas for a matchup with the defending champion Mavericks.

 

"It will be tough," Durant said. "We just need to stay focused and take it a game at a time."

 

The victory improved the Thunder to 15-3, the best record in the West, despite an off night from guard Russell Westbrook and 21 turnovers.
