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.

    OKC is a good team, really good team. On this winning streak they’ve beaten teams they should’ve beaten (I’ve always thought they were better than GSW coming into the season). I’m really looking forward to their game against Minnesota next week, that’ll tell a lot about where both teams are.

    Also, is someone going to make a post in here about the elephant in the room?

    Chet has very quickly become the 2nd most important player on this team; and as good as Giddey and JDub are, I think he also becomes the 2nd best player sometime in 2024.
