With the Spurs beating the Thunder in what was an NBA Cup classic, there's a "good chance" that the NBA's next best rivalry is happening.

Oklahoma City's 16-game winning streak has ended with a 111-109 loss to San Antonio in the NBA Cup semifinals.

With a current BetMGM win total over/under at 69.5 wins (-140 over/+115 under), Oklahoma City is currently favored to become the third 70-win team in NBA history. The -140 odds for “over 69.5” imply a more than 58 percent chance of getting there.

Oklahoma City outscored the Suns by 10 or more points in every quarter and at one point extended its lead to 53. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren combined for 52 as the Thunder ultimately won by 49, 138-89. With the victory, Oklahoma City extended its streak to 16 games, but also tied a historic record.

On Nov. 5, the Thunder rocked up to the Moda Center in Portland for the second night of a back-to-back with travel. The night before, Oklahoma City had defeated the Los Angeles Clippers, 126-107, while the Blazers had been idle after losing to the Los Angeles Lakers two nights earlier.

The Clippers falling off a cliff is a nightmare scenario for the rest of the NBA’s contenders with OKC in position to land another blue chip talent. The nightmare is only getting worse, because the 2026 Clippers pick is just the start of OKC’s future draft stash. Here’s every pick owned by the Thunder right now.
