LOS ANGELES -- Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Thunder are primed to challenge for the Western Conference title this season, three years after the core of one of the most promising teams in the league was assembled.

Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers are trying to stave off father time and make one more one for the title.

Durant scored 33 points to lead the Thunder to a 92-83 victory over the Lakers on opening night.

Russell Westbrook added 22 points, James Harden and Serge Ibaka scored 10 points each for the Thunder in the win.

"We have a lot of guys that can get a basket," Durant said after the game, "I think we feed off each other really well; it's not like guys are being selfish playing one-on-one basketball."

Kobe Bryant scored 38 points on 13 for 30 shooting, and Derek Fisher scored 13 for the Lakers, who were 4 for 21 from 3-point range.

With new coach Mike Brown on the bench, there is a buzz surrounding the Lakers, with many wondering how Bryant will react to someone other Phil Jackson heading the team.

Oklahoma City jumped on the Lakers early leading by 6 after the first quarter and never looked back.

Westbrook was quiet early, but he finished the started the second half with a jaw-dropping flourish. He scored on a layup, knocked down a jumper and then crossed Fisher over so severely that the veteran point guard fell to the ground on a drive that ended with a thunderous slam.

"We let the game come to us," Durant said. "If we continue to do that we'll be fine."

The Thunder won't have time to savor the victory as the play again tomorrow night in Phoenix against Steve Nash and the Suns.

PHOENIX -- Grant Hill and the Phoenix Suns got their 2011-12 NBA off to hot start as they knocked off top Western Conference contender Oklahoma City 90-75.

Hill turned back the clock to scoring 23 points with 5 steals, Steve Nash added 12 points and 8 assists in the 15 point win.

A 36 point second quarter put Phoenix ahead 57-43 at halftime and the Thunder never were unable to close the gap in the second half.

Nash orchestrated the offense as usual and Hill surprised even himself with his offensive outing after he came in focused on trying to slow down Kevin Durant.

Durant still scored 28 points while adding a game high 10 rebounds and team high 6 assists.

The loss drops the Thunder's record to 1-1 after opening the season with games on back to back nights.

"This is a lesson learned for us," Durant said. "Every game is a new experience. We have to get better."

Despite being one the league's youngest teams, the effects of opening the season were evident as the Thunder only managed 32 second half points.

Russell Westbrook had a tough game shooting just 2-14 for 10 points, 4 assists, and 4 turnovers.

Oklahoma City will have a day to rest before their home opener against the Indiana Pacers. They will then play for the 4th time in the seasons first 5 days as they travel to Dallas to face the defending champion Mavericks.

This is great! The thunder are my favorite team. I'm doing 30 team association and being all teams. I'm thinking about sending Ibaka and Muhammed for K Love(i dont think he'll extend with T'Wolves).
