What a week for the Thunder, whose winning streak now sits at five following wins this week over the Spurs, Blazers and two against the Warriors. The offense has been ridiculous, averaging 125 points per 100 possessions this week, as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to lead the way. Rookie Chet Holmgren had the breakout game of his young career, putting up 36 points and 10 rebounds in the overtime win over Golden State, including the turnaround, game-tying 3-pointer from the sideline as time expired in the fourth quarter.
This thread is an appreciation thread of the Thunder front office for having been so succesful in the rebuilding, and is certainly not meant for anything else.
I think on a game by game regular season basis, we have enough about us to overcome our clear rebounding deficiencies.
But once/if we get to a 7 game series, those deficiencies are gonna be really obvious and very hard to overcome
