Getty OKC Thunder
The OKC Thunder have swept the last three NBA playoffs’ first-round series after taking down the Phoenix Suns in Game 4 on Monday night. With the win, they have now placed themselves in the pantheon of some of the greatest teams in league history.
The Thunder became the first team to sweep three consecutive Round 1 series since the Cleveland Cavaliers from 2014 to 2016, squads led by LeBron James. The Cavaliers won the NBA championship in 2016.
Before the Cavaliers, the last team to pull off the feat was the Chicago Bulls from 1995
