  1. The arena empties after a good Thunder win. But there is one man still there. The ref stands on the baseline in the dimly lit arena, practicing on his evasive ball handling skills.

  2. Where are the thunder getting these guys and how the hell are they all gonna fit in the dynasty?

  3. That Shai+Jdub+Chet core is gonna rule the league for the next decade. I swear I was getting highlights of that young 2011 Thunder team lol

  4. Chet just dumped a bottle of water on JDub in the post game interview and JDub was like “gonna have to get my braids redone” lol

  5. OKC has about 6 players 25 and under who are already better than RJ. Of course the Knicks draft a bust with the 3rd pick

  6. Man, this team sure makes me feel like I’m back in 2011.

    We are so lucky to have Presti man

    Also Shai, M V P.

  7. The Thunder are already scary as is, but their big 3 are all young plus they have buku 1st round picks. Could be a Western Conference problem for a while.

  8. Pretty comfy win on the Second night of a b2b after beatjng the best team in the west.

    20 to 4 turnover disparity as well we really are like that.

  9. I’d rather play 4 on 5 than play with RJ. Opponents have no idea how lucky they are they get to play a team with a #3 pick that literally cannot make an open three. If he shoots 40% from three the Knicks win. Every single Barrett miss led to a basket on the other end.

  10. This might be a homer take but I really feel like this team can make it to the WCF this season depending on matchups. Idgaf about experience in the playoffs this team is legit

  11. I need to know what black magic Sam presti is practicing because there’s no way he got another big 3 from the draft? Like how is that even possible?

  12. Great game to watch in person. The game got tight in the late 3rd and early 4th, but Shai and JDub hit several wild threes to seal the deal. One thing we need to work on is to stay down on pump fakes. The Knicks have lots of guys who are good at drawing fouls, and if we bite on the fake, it’s free throws. That’s just basketball today.

  13. When I get sad about the Lakers, I go watch the Thunder. They’re a really fun team to watch.

  14. OKC fans- GG you have a very bright future ahead of you, and several very nice pieces that are only just getting started

  15. Four Turnovers! During the presser, Shai, Dub and Chet were all surprised to hear that’s how few they had this game.

  16. Coaching win ngl. One of the best coaches in the league vs a coach who subs in 3/13 RJ for 9/12 Quickley in the clutch
