Best NBA Performances of 2011-12

In a record-setting night in Oklahoma City, Timberwolves big man Love posted career marks of 51 points and seven three-pointers, in addition to 14 rebounds, in a 149-140 double-overtime loss to the Thunder. Love's 50-point performance was the third of the season, but it wasn't enough against Oklahoma City's duo of Durant (40) and Westbrook (45), who became the first pair of teammates in NBA history to score at least 40 points twice in the same season (see slides five and 12). Durant also pulled down 17 boards (the second most of his career), while Westbrook dished out six assists.
