Alex Caruso hustled for a steal and nailed a three-pointer on the other end.
Lakers are getting destroyed š³Ā
Thunder have the regular season figured out and its sustainableĀ
No other team has their role players play D like this its crazy
No JDub as well and they are on a back to back, while we arenāt.
They are going back to back.
Only true contenders this season are OKC, Denver, Houston (if they trade for a good PG), Knicks, Cavs, and Wolves in that order.
Or Dort. Wiggins too.
Kenny hustle, my king.
I wouldnāt have fate in the Cavs, Knicks, or Wolves to keep a series close.
The wolves have no shot. I actually think the lakers have a better chance than the wolves.
Also the Bucks are my favorites in the east imo.
I think you can remove the last three
Wolves? Don’t see it tbh. Same for Knicks.
cant remember who to credit but there was a clip on twitter showing the Thunder defenders (Joe and Caruso) already X’ing out defensively despite not even having a clear visual of the ball
just instinctual read and react based on the progression of events
Thunder are easily the best team in the NBA and its not even close
and thanks to the clippers, it’s only gonna get worse
Pix on pix
Style on these hoes sam
Every time espn would pan to sam staring last night, it was like he was the devil watching his demons running havoc on the court. What evil has thou unleashed upon the nba, sam.
Mo pix. And yes, fuck you, Denver.
Pix or it didn’t happen.
And if the Mavs start a tank job, we have their 2028 FRP as well :)
hopefully the celtics decide to tank bc the nba might be cooked if dybansta gets drafted to the thunder
We need more perimeter defenders and Reaves has been brutal this game, but Iām not concerned about him.
You should because he melts against any team with physical defense. It happened in the wolves series too.
Lakersā best player is in the G League.
*2nd best. And Thunder are missing their second best as well
need to sign andre ingram asap
Thunder is this decade warriors team. If they donāt get at least 2 rings in the next 5 years Iāll be surprised
Caruso might be the āIgoudalaā of the team.
Plays absolute lockdown defense and hits threes.
Literally. All the similarities just look like 2014-2016 warriors.
2014-15 Warriors: 67-15 ā> 2015-16 Warriors: 73-9
2024-25 Thunder: 68-14 ā> 2025-26 Thunder: 74-8(?)
Chills bro chills
Warriors were playing 2020’s basketball in the 2010’s
KD coming soon
“Open shot, the fate of the universe on the line, the Martians have the death beam pointed at Earth, you better hit it, I WANT CARUSO!”
Eh, it doesnāt roll off the tongue like Iguodala.
Yāall kind of owe it to us tbh
I might sound crazy but hear me out, I have a weird feeling of what’s gonna happen in next 4 years…
Thunder beaks regular season record with SGA back-to-back MVP this time unanimous,
SGA gets injured in 1st round,
Thunder breaks thru without him to WCF, and flip the 3-1 down against Lakers,
and then end up on other side of 3-1 upset at Finals against against Cavs,
Dort was suspended game 4, Hartenstein went down in game 5, SGA and Caruso had to play through injury,
that summer of 26, suprising and controversial FA signing of Luka to Thunder making a superteam,
Thunder win 27 and 28,
but on 29 Finals, both Luka and JDub goes down on injury,
SGA cannot win on his own and have to watch Knicks win it all with Wemby who left Spurs with some noise
call me crazy, but I have a strange feeling this might happen
Wtf lol
lmao idk why im getting downvoted but i went crazy writing down exactly what happened to warriors post-2015 because the commenter compared Thunder to warriors of this decade
idk why im getting downvoted
š¤
i went crazy
Lmfao saving this shit.
Its over in the 2nd jesus
we do that a lot
Started the season off with two straight double OT games and promised to end every other game early lol.
that was four overtimes too many
Can’t handle many more this season. My heart may explode.
The boys didn’t like being winded apparently.
We donāt really tho. We usually make it interesting early on and then hit the gas later
Rob has work to do
Shame that Nico is no longer employed
Nico isn’t calling anymore
So sad
He had work to do since February
He did work since February
Yāall want CJ McCollum for a first? You know heād go for it
Nah I think we need more defense than offense.
Defense wins championships as they say
Et tu, Caruso?
-Lakers, probably
Nah our FO betrayed him
We need to nerf OKC asap
This IS the nerfed Thunder lol. No Dort or Jalen Williams and theyāre doing this. Crazy.
Donāt forget about The Man Who Saved Basketball
And kenneth saint hussle.
This is the nerfed version of OKC. Second night of a b2b with no JDub, Dort, Wiggins. Neither of our last two 1st round picks has played in a game yet either.
No Kenrich either!
Nah he played 4th and fouled a few times. We still got it.
Pablo gotta go digging and find something other than Sam Presti’s jazz rap album, this is not looking good for the rest of the league, for the rest of the decade lol
Presti let them find his jazz rap album as a misdirect and it worked perfectly
This is just belt to ass so far
I love this guy
Meanwhile THT is playing overseas, and so is Pat Bev, who we later traded THT for.
Why the Lakers let him go :(
average Thunder game
Lakers shooting under 30% š„¶
Reaves is 1⁄6 with 2 turnovers
All-Star btw
I mean, Luka is 3⁄10 with 4 TO, OKC defense is just that good
So does he get a supermax anymore or has that 4 game stretch faded already
Clown with no flair
on purpose when bums like yall can’t even argue the point so you want to derail the topic by attacking flairs
Yeah ‘cause one game defines a players season. Go back to Call of Duty son
that’s Ayton’s plans buddy
weak
weak that you can’t even argue the point
Certified crook
OKC is just on another level right now. I’m not surprised if they repeat. They’re treating contenders like kindergarters. Lol
And they are getting the 7th and 9th nba picks
Oooof madone
Give the Thunder the banner already. No one can compete with them this season
The bald eagle baby
Yeah the Thunder are going back to back theyāre 11-1 probably 12-1 without their second best player
If you donāt know now you know.
Reeves flopping as he is used to, rolling on the floor lol.
Lakers are committing basketball terrorism right now
THT over me!?
Caruso has a 100% 3PT% when Iām watching the game
[deleted]
Itās one bad game.
He dropped 40 against an elite Portland defense as the first option recently.
Caruso just trucked him lol. Caruso all defense is no question but he gets away with calls because of that reputation.
Watch the replay, Caruso gets all ball and Reaves trips. Nobody was trucked.
Have you seen the foul discrepancy?
soft. bro just needs to hit the weight room
Dude just ran right into him but I guess thatās a steal, same shit they did in the playoffs.
?? he was side by side and went for the ball
The replay is so damning, not even going to humor arguing with an okc fan tho. FTA could punch a mf and yaāll would still argue he was fouled lol.
Lmao
