March 2014 Summary
March saw the status quo maintained at the top of both conferences with Miami and Oklahoma City continuing their dominance.
Kevin Durant has put up phenomenal numbers in the last month. He only scored less than 30 points in one of his last fourteen games.
He managed eight games of 40 or more points, but his most spectacular effort was a career-high 82 points against the Kings in Sacramento.
That form has seen him take a very healthy lead in the scoring title race. He is also in strong contention to win his second MVP award.Conference Standings
