Spurs and Bruins

The NBA and NHL seasons are winding down and recent hot streaks by last year’s runners-up in each league are the big story.

Both the NBA San Antonio Spurs, whose 19 game winning streak ended in Oklahoma City Thursday night and the NHL Boston Bruins lost heartbreaking finals series last season.

The Bruins have amassed 32 of a possible 34 points in their last 17 games and have all but clinched the best record in the NHL East.

The Spurs seem to have a comfortable lead in the race for the best record in the NBA.
