NBA Finals: Looking back at the last time the Thunder lost four straight

Thought I’d share an interesting Thunder fact, courtesy of the Twitter account @ThunderStats:

A loss in Game 5 on Thursday would mark the first time the Thunder has lost four straight since April 4-8, 2009 —  the team’s first season inOklahoma City.

I went back and looked at that streak, and it was ugly. A 35-point home loss to Portland and an 18-point defeat at home to Indiana. Shaun Livingston played point guard for the Thunder in a home loss to San Antonio, at which Wayman Tisdale was honored at halftime. Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Thabo Sefolosha and Nick Collison are the only players remaining from that team, which lost a fourth straight at Denver.

According to @ThunderStats, no NBA team has gone longer without losing four straight than Oklahoma City.
