F Kevin Durant terrorized his former team for the second straight time Wednesday night, pouring in a season-high 40 points in the Warriors' 121-100 victory over the Thunder.Durant, who left the Thunder as a free agent in July and dropped 39 points on them in their first head-to-head in November, contributed 13 points to a third-quarter flurry as the Warriors (36-6) exploded into a 93-78 lead after having been tied at 56-all at halftime.The result was a 21-point thumping 10 weeks after a 26-point shellacking in Durant's first-ever meeting with the Thunder."Every player in the NBA wants to play well against his old team," Warriors coach Steve Kerr observed. "For most guys, you feel that little extra juice. I think it's even more so with KD because of his history with that franchise. He's got a lot of friends over there, and for sure he's motivated and it's a big deal."Durant's big scoring night, the 47th 40-point game of his career, helped the Warriors overcome Thunder guard Russell Westbrook's league-leading 21st triple-double of the season.Durant hit 13 of 16 from the field and five of his seven 3-pointers.Durant also had a team-high 12 rebounds, helping Golden State gain a 46-36 advantage in that area.
