Been a top 10ish player in NBA history

As long as you admit who the overall best player is

Nah, not because I don't have the money I don't want to go through the whole rigmarole of sending the money if I lose.

Did you see Baby Billy water ski last week? lol

This team is WAY better than any of those teams.

It just defends so damn well. SGA's scoring gets the headlines but what really sets the Thunder apart is how good and how deep that defense is.

If they have an off shooting night they're probably still going to put up 100 points and they'll likely end up holding you to 88.

They just don't have a way they HAVE to win. Those Durant teams had to score to win. A lot of other championship caliber teams have needed to lean on defense.

OKC just does everything at such a high level. And have a LOT of guys that can do it. And a shitload of draft capital and no bad contracts and a slew of young players.

They're a massive problem for the next 3-5 years at least.

So yeah - we can cling to the idea that they'll just collapse in the playoffs, but in the NBA that doesn't usually happen. Most of the time, the best teams at least make the conference finals and in the end the NBA has the most 'representative' champions, IMO.

I'd still take the field over OKC because the West is really hard and the Celtics represent an interesting matchup for them. If the Thunder have to fight to get through the West and find Boston waiting for them on the other side, that may just be asking too much.

But I'm closer to betting against the field than I've been on an NBA team in a long time. They're ****ing good. And for the next couple years at least they're only gonna get better.

We will see, I would love to be proven wrong.

Almost no big man can be the best player, especially the impact on winning. As you saw with your lover boy HD you still have to get the ball to him. While Jokic can create offense on his own you still have to give him the ball on the right spot on the floor. You cant just give him the ball at the top of the key or on a fast break most of the time. Great guards can get to their spot and make you pay.

Alright now, why don't you join hands with us. This will be Baby Billys time to shine. The Thunder will have gods grace rhis year with your help . This is finally your big break. The Thunder were scientifically formulated by the lord to win.

The real MVP should push this other Morris brother in the back too.

Absolute nonsense.

I love the troll by Morris.

Dynasty incoming.

I finally googled your av, Rumble the Bison?

We've always known the twins were tards.

Jokic is incredible. Don't really know anything about this SGAY fella, apparently he's in the mvp convo too - other than he's canadian(gay as ****) and played at kentucky(double gay as ****).

They whuped the ass of a playoff team by like 15 points and he chooses THEN to go in on SGA?

That said -- I absolutely hate his style of play and hope beyond hope that the NBA starts swallowing whistles in the playoffs. I still remember the league setting basketball back a decade in that series where they just put Wade on the line every time he drove the ball against Dallas.

In the final two games of that series the guy drew 46 FT attempts in two games they won by a combined 4 points.

To say nothing of the 18 he drew in a game they won by 2.

In one series the guy had 3 games where he had 18 or more FT attempts. In his entire playoff career outside of those three games he managed to do that twice.

And we're gonna pretend like that was a legit title.

The league doesn't benefit from a series where this guy's going to the line 13+ times to the line every game...

OKC mascot

He leads the league in drives per game....by alot.

He actually doesn't get called for as many fouls as he should because they just get tired of his fearless relentless stamina.

Michael Jordan FTA a game 8.2.
SGA FTA a game 7.0.

Do you hate Jordan?

Sounds like he’s getting a lot of breathers to keep that stamina up by being a free throw merchant
