Oklahoma City Thunder coach Billy Donovan has consistently said his team's tough closing schedule was a positive, even as the Thunder slid down the Western Conference standings.

After winning at Toronto on Friday night, Donovan said his team needs to build on that performance and not get comfortable after snapping a four-game losing streak leading into Monday's game at Memphis.

"There's times when you win basketball games, and it can be late in the year, and you can lose your way," Donovan said. "And there can be a lot of things that you're slipping on, but because the result is what you want, you actually go into the end of the year not being as good of a team."
