With the win over the LA Clippers on Sunday the OKC Thunder extended their win streak to four games in a row. Like the wins over the Bulls and Grizzlies, this one required a come from behind effort.
What was different in this win, however, was the opponent is considered among the elite clubs in the West. Although the Clippers were playing in a back to back set and without the services of Kawhi Leonard (load management) or Patrick Beverley the victory was no less rewarding.
OKC was also missing key contributors, most notably Danilo Gallinari who sprained his ankle in the pregame warmup.
