The Oklahoma City Thunder (3-4) picked up a second consecutive win as they defeated the Orlando Magic 102-94 on Tuesday, and tonight they take on the Spurs in San Antonio.
The Spurs (4-3) have had an interesting start to the season so far. After jumping out to a 3-0 record that put them at the top of the Western Conference Standings, they proceeded to lose 3 of their next 4 games.
The Thunder are a slight underdog tonight, something that has been and will be consistent throughout this season, but the Spurs are not an insurmountable foe. OKC has a chance to pull to .500 on the season tonight, and a win would do well for continuing the momentum.
