The Oklahoma City Thunder ended their season on a positive note (for players) and negative note (for the front office). They took down the Los Angeles Clippers to get a win in the regular-season finale, but dropped to a tie for the No. 4 spot in the reverse standings.
Will this make a difference for the final power rankings? Can the Thunder rise from the No. 30 spot where they have been for several weeks in many prominent national lists?
It appears ESPN and John Schuhmann of NBA.com did not publish their weekly power rankings, so this list will be shorter than usual throughout the season.
