I think it would be nice if they didn't keep shooting this well.

[–] StripedSteel@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Only if the Timberwolves agree to stop rebounding well.

86.7 isn't close to 90% when it comes to free throws

[–] silverfang45@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

This early into the season it kinda is.

Absurd

But Bill Simmons insisted they needed to trade Giddey and picks for Jrue Holiday

Totally sustainable

They will regress I’m sure but in so sick of hearing the commentary about “don’t get used to this, it’s never happened before in OKC history.”

Well no shit when you have Westbrook and Roberson on a team, 2 of the worst shooters in modern NBA history.

It’s nice to see basketball played the way it’s supposed to be played. Shooters, floor spacing, etc..

In 2016: “don’t expect these warriors to win a chip or multiple, it’s never happened before in franchise history”

SGA and Chet effect

This is one of the wildest stats I've seen in a while tbh

[–] FalcoLamborghini@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

what!?

Still early in the season but wow nonetheless

[–] iuselect@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I love this team.

[–] futurehousehusband69@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

KD with these cats would be so crazy

[–] ValueDiarrhea@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Someone tell this guy that 86 isn’t 90.

[–] eexxiitt@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

OKC feels like the 2014 warriors. They are beginning to gel and take the league by storm.

I think they are the team to watch now ... They play some amazing team basketball and it's crazy cause they are all so young.

After the early games OKC played against us, I believe it’s wcf or bust for the Thunder this year. Team is too good.

I like what you are saying, but you have lost your mind.

The 2023 Atlanta Braves of Basketball.

With all their draft picks and the Bertans contract, I think the Thunder should be ringing the Jazz up to trade for Lauri. Ainge cant turn down picks and the Thunder have a boat load of them.

Lauri is a great pairing in the front court and would fit well with the team.
