How tf does the number one team “Find ways to not get it done”?
They on pace to win 67 games. Their average scoring differential is 13 points.
If they win they win big and don’t even give mfs a chance.

This is the third switch-up he’s done on OKC this season and we’re just at the all-star break. Took me this long to realize SAS is a comedian.

I remember they’re thinking about this for the Nuggets back in their championship year. They always think like this against small market teams. You don’t see them thinking like this for big market teams like LA and Boston.

Because in the playoffs the foul baiting is not rewarded, which will aggressively impact SGA’s performance.

The disrespect for the thunder is crazy. They all can get buckets. Listen the teams that have a chance to go to the finals are the thunder, Celtics, cavs and knicks. No team in the west is really that dangerous to me

Shai wants to play shooting guard instead of PG and they force JDub to play forward when he’s a guard. OKC need a Small Forward with size and to make Shai play point guard if he’s gonna be listed at point guard

OKC had a literal black hole on their roster by the name of Josh Giddey last year. Dude was such a negative threat that he had to be benched in the playoffs. They also were horrible on the glass. That is why the mavs beat them by one possession in game 6 at home. Now they have Caruso and Hartenstein, like this team is just about perfect except for one scenario: when Shai doesn’t have it going and shooters are missing they fall apart. But not only will that not happen consistently, even when it does to lesser degrees they weather that storm and still win because they have a MONSTROUS defense. The nba cup game was the worst offensive game I’ve seen in a while, they went 3-25 from 3 as a team. And yet they held Milwaukee to only 96 points I believe in that same “playoff” atmosphere. I would be thoroughly shocked if they go worse than 12-3 or 12-4 in the west

I wish OKC good luck this year. Everyone’s predicting them to go all the way to the finals last year until Luka & the Mavs stopped them on their tracks in the 2nd round of the playoffs.

Considering they have fewer losses than anyone, they technically find FEWER ways to not get it done than anyone else.
