For the first time since mid-April, the San Antonio Spurs are dealing with defeat. Their 20-game winning streak was snapped in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals at Oklahoma City on Thursday night, leaving the Spurs to figure out what went wrong in a 20-point blowout. After scoring a postseason-best 120 points in Game 2, San Antonio was held to a season-low 82 points in Game 3 as the Thunder deployed 6-foot-7 Thabo Sefolosha to defend All-Star point guard Tony Parker and altered their pick-and-roll defense. Game 4 is today ( 5:30 p.m. on TNT) in Oklahoma City.
