4. Oklahoma City Thunder (4-2)

After knocking off the Dallas Mavericks with little-to-no resistance in the first round of the playoffs, the Oklahoma City Thunder entered their second round series against the San Antonio Spurs on a high. That didn’t help in Game 1, though.

Quite frankly, I don’t think anything would’ve.

After getting blown out in their opening game against the San Antonio Spurs, the Thunder are once again back to the drawing board. They shouldn’t feel too bad about themselves, though, the Spurs do that to many of their opponents.

Though, with a ton at stake in this series against San Antonio, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook better get on the same page quick. If not, this summer will be very interesting.
