Starting a thread of gifs I’ve added to the Tenor library. I’m a value add to Bluesky already!

First, some non-OKC ones. 3k shares on this one, couldn’t help myself.

Had to get put Mount Nikola behind us for Mark to have freedom, and I don't think we're going back.

Lu Dort Home/Away 3pt% splits for the last three seasons:

2023: 36.7 H, 28.9 A
2024: 41.8 H, 37.0 A
2025: 45.0 H, 35.2 A

This is somehow something I was not aware of.

Hey @albabycakes.bsky.social just wanna let you know that ya OKC’s only had those 5 games that ended up within 3 at the end,

but they’ve had 24 games with clutch time and they’re 16-8 (3rd best % [CLE, BOS])

with +12.9 NetRtg (3rd [CLE, IND])

so they’re not like totally unproven in close games.

It would be overly dramatic to say Lu Dort got Taylor Jenkins fired, so I'm not saying that.

Don't even bring a snake to a Thunder game if you want it to leave with its head attached.

It's gonna be tough with people in and out of the lineup (rest) but there are still a few things I'd love to see on the court in these last 10 games:

- Shai-AC-Dub-Chet-iHart - 0 minutes!
- AC-Joe-Dub-Chet-iHart - 1 minute!
- Dub + Lankenstein, no Shai - 9 minutes!

30 point games allowed by team.

When you play OKC, you better have a plan B.

How do teams perform against the best units in the league?

Can you score on the best defenses? Stop the best offenses?

When the difficulty gets turned up, are you up to the challenge?

Mark Daigneault has reached .500 as an NBA Head Coach (playoffs included).

Took a 2-yr tank rebuild back to .500 a little over halfway through yr 5.

Started 46-108
Then 40-42
Then 102-38

Total 188-188

What a turnaround. What a coach.

I saw reporting that because the 6ers have traded a subsequent 1st, they're not allowed to amend the protections.

It seems logical to me that it would be ok to reduce protections, but idk if that's the case.

Having said that, idk if there's enough picks to get Philly to unprotect it lol.
Wondering if there would be any incentive on either side for the Thunder to give up some combination of draft picks to the Sixers in exchange for unprotecting this years pick? Thunder consolidate picks and sixers could move more picks to retool next year around a hopefully healthier team?

Beginning to get very exciting…

OKC's historic Net Rating gets even crazier when you take out Low Leverage possessions.

The Thunder have been +16.5 in minutes that matter.

Once the game is out of hand, they've essentially been the Hornets, and they've played the 3rd-most of those possessions.
