Do you feel like the Thunder’s historic season is getting enough attention?

[Harry B]

If they don’t have any injuries

But I’ve noted that OKCs game is perfect for when people don’t play tough defense, when shyt gets serious after all-star break and in the playoffs games get a lot more even

And yet despite all that, Haliburton himself almost broke this team in the Finals. So for all it’s worth, coupled with the Warriors record being meaningless after losing the Finals and how manufactured SGA’s play is with officiating…people just don’t care.

Also it isn’t the all star break yet. People care more then.

But the difference is that was their first time. Now the Thunder are battle tested. They passed that threshold.

Nope. A lot of people still got Jokic over Shai for MVP this year lol.

 

[NormanConnors]

so were the Warriors when they went 73-9 and then choked in the end

They ran into the goat, shyt happens

Must have been a comedy thread

2018 Bron was still the best player in the League, that swap is not a hot take

 

[Paper Boi]

wait til football is over


it won't get the attention it deserves though if they do end up with a better record than the warriors.

their stars aren't the same level as Steph

they don't have a rival at the same level as LeBron in 2016

they play in Oklahoma not California

that shyt matters when it comes to media attention sadly.

SGA is the goat Canadian

Yea we had a guy with a broken hand and one coming off major hip surgery. Besides that thos a disservice to siakam who was actually their best player

There's a certain athleticism and/or size you need to be able to compete with OKC. The only team's I'd give a puncher's chance are Denver, Houston and San Antonio.

Funny enough portland pushes them because they are running Deni, Jeremy Grant, Toumani Camara as well as jrue. So they have size, physicality and length.
I'm at a point i'm actually thinking SGA is better than Kobe at the same age.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Only team that could give them problems are Denver and a healthy Celtics with a healthy Tatum

What happens when you tank for a decade and your best player is a swagless Canadian foul baiter

OKC was in the playoffs in the bubble in 2020 and back in the playoffs in 24.

 

[FTBS]

They cracked the regular season code. 7 games against top squads is different. But as others have said, now that they have a ring they are different.

Let yall tell it, the manufactured goat was up 3-1
