OKLAHOMA CITY -- Kevin Durant sank to the Ford Center floor, arms down, head
dangling between his legs. There are losses and then there are losses and Game
4's 112-105 overtime defeat was clearly one of the latter. All the energy, all

allegations: "Never a failed test," Armstrong tweeted in response to
Hamilton's remarks. "I rest my case."
