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

I’m pretty annoyed about it lol

Usually it’s a couple hours. It’s been two days.

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

We no longer need to worry about such things lol

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.

Here’s a bit longer clip of Chet today that Clemente posted over there, thought you guys might enjoy it. It includes him jumping a lil bit off that hurt side.

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.

Split that bubble and made them light blue to highlight.

With a center is a little bit better, but both are still very good.

OKC Lineup data in Buckets. Bubble size = minutes played.

↗️= good
↙️= bad

The only missing minutes are the 14 (lol) with Shai and Dub both out.

Takeaways:
- Dub on + Shai off + iHart off should never happen again.
- Chet fixes everything
- Shai is the MVP
- Bubbles are fun

Net True Shooting Attempts per 100 possessions.

You not only have to beat the Thunder (and Rockets and Magic), you have to beat 5 extra shots too.

Hmm one crutch is present (via Clemente)
December 22, 2024 at 3:35 PM
Oh dang lol

Probably not shocking since they're the best defense, but OKC leads the league in fewest games allowing a player to score 30+ points this season.

Check out where their NBA Cup Final opponent is.

Updating this chart.

-OKC getting knocked from 4th ORtg to 8th by Low Leverage (garbage time) minutes is hilarious.

-Clippers getting dinged hard too, from 17th to 24th.

-Warriors are the 24th Offense pretending to be the 16th, I see you.

I think this is a Weekend at Bernie's situation

And he adds a dunk, passing De'Aaron Fox for 2nd in dunks.

Awesome player.
