This video looks at the Oklahoma City Thunder and why the nba is scared of them after the Isaiah Hartenstien signing to go with their core of Shai Gilgeous Alexander and Jalen Williams

OKC's depth is insane. Starters are SGA, J-Dub, Chet, Dort, and Caruso/IHart. Wiggins will be the 4th off the bench behind Caruso/IHart, Joe, and Wallace. 10 and 11 are J-Will and Kendrich Williams. 🤯🤯🤯

Don’t sleep though they’ll still be good and I wouldn’t be surprised to see them again in the playoffs. But yeah they’re insufferable unfortunately hahha they will forever bring up how they beat us with an injured Luka. While true they also had career performances from PJ and DJJ while our entire team besides SGA couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn 😂😂 Luka had an insanely high turnover and pretty inefficient series. Dort made his life hell. I think we can take them next year

Hartenstein and Caruso will both start for sure. They're not making those moves and paying that kind of money for them to come off the bench. With Dallas and Minnesota both using two bigs for large amounts of time OKC needs to do that to match up with them.

Any of you out there who think OKC won the Giddey/Caruso trade simply don't know basketball. We lost that one big time. Giddey was a big part of why OKC was 57-25 and finished 1st in the west and came within one play of making the west conf. finals. I don't think Caruso is as good as Wiggins and we didn't need any more wing players because we already have tons of them so it made zero sense. They're obviously better with Hartenstein as he addresses a big need but losing Giddey makes them worse.

Giddy could be that but why should we wait IHart helps with bigs and board and he can guard 3-5 while also still giving us some playmaking. Caruso is one of the best perimeter defender speaks volume by itself …. Now if you truly new okc you would see jaydub and Chet bring more tools to win than giddy. Giddy only brought playmaking at least every player that starts for okc can do it all

@@jittztv3520 Giddey is that already and is only 21 and improving every year. Giving up on an incredibly talented young player like that for a 30 year old who averages less than 7 points and is the same player as Wiggins, Wallace and Williams makes zero sense. Wiggins is a better player than Caruso and we already have him. The trade makes zero sense. We didn't need another wing player.

Thunder might have a better record this season, last season they had 57-25 but they also let their stars rest for multiple games, they could’ve won 4 extra games if they didn’t do that so their record would be 61-21, Boston was 64-18, OKC improved a ton so they could very much get a better record than Boston this season, possibly even 66-16

Boston is good but very beatable. Dallas chocked away 3 of those games due to missed shots and FTs. Dallas is my pick to come out the West again with the additions of Klay, Marshall and Grimes. Mavs still are making moves as well.

Their opponents this year were so outmatched, they could win without KP and weather Tatum's poor play at times when KP was healthy. Next year, there will be multiple powerhouse clubs. They may not be able to skate like they did this year if Philly, OKC, and Mil stay healthy.

So many championships have been won in the preseason including multiple Clippers chips in the last couple of years. The Bucks were meant to be unbeatable last season, whilst the Suns had a super team and the Mavs would miss the playoffs. People should just let the season play out and pray their team plays to their full potential. The Thunder one post season series win after surprising the league and adding 2 roster pieces should've go to peoples heads.

The deal with him is he has one year left and danny loses clout with his demands as time passes. As a long time fan of okc, we can beat anyone if our team is playing their best ball. Our young players take giant steps every offseason. Wait and see is best plus Add two great pieces plus individual growth. We dont need lauri. I prefer safe moves because teams like the clippers isn’t how you run a franchise. They have a dark future. Broke and bad.
