OKC has a tremendously deep complete roster. SGA, Chet, Jalen Williams. Everybody on that team knows their role and is contributing in a big big way. It’s awesome to see such a young team have the success that they are having this year. I hope they go far in these playoffs.

I mean the only reason why OKC is not a first round exit is because they are facing Pels without Zion.

Neither team has a shot at that for at least 3 years. Jokic demolishes Chet and OKC has no one to bring even off the bench to guard him

[@vic7991]

Well we already know the thunder fumble a dynasty before. So, if they don't win one in the next 3 years. Do you think they would pay to keep the team together or will they go the same route they went last time they went to the finals? I give presti credit, he has an eye for picking talent and stacking draft capital. But,all that means nothing if he doesn't have a championship.
