You don't need to play GSW 82 times to determine your record this season though.

True, but I was talking about the series last year. They was up 3-1 but Kanter barely played in that series. Adams and Roberson are the only two left that played significant minutes in that series.

Let's talk about their record when Russ has a triple dub as opposed when he doesn't get one.

Triple dub= A winning record for OKC

No triple dub= A losing record for OKC.

Let's talk about the direction of causation on that. Sometimes when OKC has a big lead, Russ stays in the game and gets some more stats. Probably has less time to focus on that in close games.

It's all good though. Russ is phenomenal this season and it's gonna be fun watching him battle against high seeds in the playoffs. He's gonna be a handful for one of the top teams.

If they get matched against Spurs, they'll probably steal one, but there's no reason why Houston and GSW wouldn't sweep them outright

That does NOT happen.... for one, the Thunder rarely blow people out... they're mostly in close games... and 2nd, their head coach ain't stupid to keep Russ IN the games when they did have a huge lead... like any other smart head coach.

Why do you keep repeating this after I've already told you I never said this? I wasn't even the person who used that talking point in the first place. Are you slow? Serious question. :francis:
