Denver, CO -
The Oklahoma City Thunder face a tough road test tonight against the hottest team in the NBA.
The Denver Nuggets have won six straight games and have cut the deficit between themselves and the Thunder to just three games with six games remaining on the schedule.
Oklahoma City had been the NBA's hottest team in March, but are 0-and-2 in the month of April with second-half collapses against both Portland and the Los Angeles Clippers.
A win by the Thunder tonight would go a long way toward clinching the NBA's Northwest Division. A loss would leave the door wide open for the Nuggets, who have gone 14-and-4 since the trade that sent Carmelo Anthony to New York.
The Thunder and Nuggets also meet again in Oklahoma City on Friday.
