You're right they did lose 4 in a row last year, but to a MUCH better and more experienced OKC team than this GS team. OKC was young but they already had playoff experience from going out in the first round in 09-10, to making it to the conference finals in 10-11, to then finally making it to the finals last year (by sweeping games 3-6 against SA). You can't compare apples and oranges. The Splash Brothers are popping their playoff cherry don't forget that. I believe they have to go through the pain of losing a tough series first before making it to the promise land.
