The Thunder were able to build on last week’s impressive east coast road trip, extending their winning streak to 7 games by going 3-0 this week. They won home games versus Houston, Utah, and San Antonio’s skeleton crew as they rested most of their players. The game against Houston was the only particularly close game (4-point win), as they beat the Jazz by 22 and the Spurs by 19. With a good week, they should move up in the power rankings this week.
The Thunder’s lead for 3 seed in the western conference was extended to 5.
