Basketball Betting Lines

11/10/2008 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - T.J. Ford scored 11 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter and finished with 10 assists, as Indiana toppled Oklahoma City, 107-99, at Conseco Fieldhouse.

Ford was 10-of-19 from the field with a pair of threes and collected seven rebounds and two steals for the Pacers, who won their second straight game.

Danny Granger logged 20 points and seven boards while Jeff Foster and Marquis Daniels chipped in 15 and 14 points, respectively, for Indiana, which next travels to New Jersey to take on the Nets Wednesday.

Kevin Durant netted a game-high 37 points on 13-of-27 shooting with eight boards for the Thunder, who lost for the sixth time in seven games to open the season and have now dropped four straight.

Jeff Green had 14 points and seven rebounds for Oklahoma City, which will next host the Magic on Wednesday.

The third quarter finished with the game tied, 78-78, and the final quarter was neck-and-neck with the margin kept between five points from the outset until the waning moments.

A pair of free throws from Russell Westbrook tied the game at 95 with just under four minutes to play, but the Pacers got five straight points, including consecutive layups from Daniels and Foster, the latter of which came with under two minutes left.

Earl Watson nailed a jumper for Oklahoma City, but Ford answered with a three- ball. A Nick Collison layup pulled the Thunder back within four, but Ford came through again with a bucket and drained two free throws with 28 seconds left to help ice the victory.

A 9-2 run late in the first gave the Thunder a 10-point advantage heading to the second and a jumper by Joe Smith a little over a minute in made it a 15- point game. Indiana, though, followed with a 13-0 run to pull within two and a Ford jumper with just about a minute left kept the halftime deficit at 51-48.

Another jump shot by Ford with just under eight minutes left in the third gave Indiana its first lead since the 9:07 mark of the first and was part of a 15-2 run which saw the Pacers grab a seven-point lead.
