In this series, I assemble what I believe is the greatest team possible for each franchise. In this specific video, we're looking at the OKC Thunder and the Seattle Supersonics.
5 starters, 5 backups, and 3 rotations players. A total of 13 roster spots on each Ultimate Team. It's not just about talent, but it's about building a team that works and gels together.

Jonny, I think I have fewer criticisms with your choices for this team than any other video you've done in this really fun series, and I was thrilled that Spencer Haywood made the starting lineup. He was amazing in the early '70s. I wish there were room for Gus Williams and Downtown Freddie Brown (great long-distance shooter) in the top 13, but that just shows how many really good guards the Sonics/Thunder have had. And finally, I strongly agree with your take of Payton over Westbrook in the starting lineup. Good job!

This Thunder team goes into the 5-8 range with the Suns, Mavericks, and Kinga. They'll be competing for a top 5-6 seed to avoid the play in. The Lakers, Rocket, Spurs, and Warriors are clearly superior. The starting lineup is fantastic. Kemp and Payton can do their thing together as alley oop partners. Payton's playmaking can set up more scoring opportunities for KD and SGA. Payton is an all time great defender and Durant is an all time underrate defender. Haywood can focus on rebounding. In the second unit George and Sikma can focus more on defense while Chambers and Allen provide scoring and shooting and Westbrook can be that dynamic point guard. DJ and Ibaka are a good end of bench choices in case you need more good defenders and Ellis is an excellent end of bench choice if you need more perimeter shooting. Pretty good team and pretty well built. Not a top 4 team but a top 8 team that might avoid the play in tournament if they do well head to head with the Suns, Kings, and Mavericks.

Growing up around the Seattle era if you associate the thunder with the SuperSonics the people act like they are completely separate and a lot of them feel like the Sonics history should be it’s own thing considering how much talk their has been to bring a team back to Seattle and even the commissioner said himself Seattle is the most likely destination for the upcoming expansion. But if that does happen do the thunder keep all history for the sonics like the players and the 1979 Championship or would it be brought to the new team.

This team is very solid and feels like that team that will easily win play-in games to make the playoffs. A playoff series? That's honestly asking a bit much. Have you seen their history post 1979? Nothing but choking. This current Thunder core may change that soon though. But keep that in mind for a sec, because the roster is also pretty good, where it can also be argued as well rounded. Russ as the 6th man is actually one of the best ideas I've heard from Jonny yet and honestly convinced me to change my mind on where I may adjust the lineups. The highlights will be all time greatness as well with crazy lobs, baskets and playmaking galore. And again, Serge Ibaka should be the guy relied on for rim protection. So what's my problem? Rebounding. I was surprised to see Kemp at the center because...I don't think he'll do that well against Western Conference centers like Shaq, Wilt, Hakeem, Robinson, Jokic, Cousins, etc. Maybe I'm underrating his rebounding though, who knows. They got Jack Sikma too, so it's not all bad, but still. Back to the current Thunder core though, this is where I'm hoping Chet Holmgren will fix that in the near future. We shall see. But hey, those are just my thoughts. See you for the Timberwolves.

I rlly like this team, unfortunately against an all time team like the lakers they would struggle down low, they might come into the offseason as a top 5 seed, but I don’t see them getting past the second round

I think id pick rookie Chet near the end because his skillset is already pretty extreme as a shot blocker and floor spacer. The guards and wings are already so stacked that he could fill out a rotation nicely

A decent amount, actually. Off the top of my head, the 76ers, Lakers, Celtics and Rockets.

Solid team! No dispute from me from 1-10 but that 11-13 spots you have to put James harden and rashard Lewis in 2 of those 3 open spots.

@greywolf2155 Ай бұрын
In terms of talent, sure. But they need the size And you don't need OKC Harden (before he really broke out) when you have Ray Lewis and SGA, you don't need Rashard Lewis (much as I loved him) when you have KD and Sonics Ray Lewis

When you do the simulation do a fan bracket as well and see how close the fans get to the computer. Do a vote type bracket for fans.

Damn WB at the bench genuinely surprised me. Cause for me he is one of the greatest in the franchise. He can run with the starting because they have shooters in the starting.

people are gonna get mad russ isn’t starting but he’s the kind of player who has massive highs but also massive lows so you have to build the entire team around him which is not worth benching payton for
