OKC will end the season with more national televised games than they started with. They have the potential to really make a statement in the West, I am hoping to see them end up in the 45–48-win range. The West is looking absolutely stacked, if everyone stays healthy, we could have 12-13 teams that should be playoff teams. The East will continue to be a top-heavy conference with plenty of poverty franchises with ****ty owners. This is going to be a very exciting basketball season. I fully expect the team to declare themselves this year.

[Laramie]

Good prediction Citywokchinesefood: 45-48 win range. If everyone stays healthy, and Lord knows we've had our hard luck share during what was suppose to be the big roll-out of Chet Holmgren's rookie season.
Thunder finished 40-42, of what was expected to be a 23-59 season.

Chet, the #2 NBA pick in the 2022 draft will make his debut during the 2023-24 season. The team
will be ready with so much competition among team members vying to become a part of the roster.

Mark Daigneault (new contract) will open against former Thunder head coach Billy Donovan as apart of two
road games and a nightmare three home games against Denver, New Orleans and Golden State.

You bet the Thunder will be underdogs in what could be a 0 - 5 start. If the Thunder can win two or three
of those first five games, get ready to Thunder up.

Does anyone have any updates on the Thunder's practice facility. IIRC $10 million was budgeted in MAPS 4 for upgrades.

[catcherinthewry]

Do we know who is going to be televising Thunder games locally this year?

not saying it won't be Bally but ..

that link and info is from last season

[king183]

It’s Bally Sports.

[catcherinthewry]

Thanks. They lost a lot of money last year and there was speculation that they would try to get out of some of their contracts. I was hoping that someone else might take over who was more reliable.

they went bankrupt last year .. and they are still trying to renegotiate all of their contracts ..

[FighttheGoodFight]

I wouldn't worry too much. If Bally falls through the NBA has said they will pick up the rights to finish any season broadcast. MLB did it for several teams this year. It would be really cool to do it like the Phoenix Suns who will broadcast theirs for free OTA or online.

big week for Bally I would say who broadcasts the thunder games this year is still very much up in the air ..

Seems pretty murky. I have a feeling we might not know who is broadcasting the thunder right up until the preseason. I like the thunder crew at Bally. I hope they can keep their jobs.

agree on all counts

[warreng88]

I remember going to Belle Isle to watch a Thunder game last year and they weren't showing it because Bally's was too expensive to get. I would guess places like Chalk and BWW would show them regardless, but if they weren't with Bally's and it costs less, more places would carry the games.

I also saw HBO (Or MAX) will carry some NBA games. Not sure which ones.

TNT games will be on Max. Ballys streaming is 20 a month. Not terrible if you are avid watcher. I dont have many problems with the app but some do I have heard.

I think that is on the consumer side and it is more expensive on the commercial side. At least that is what I have been told.

What's funny is League Pass is $15/mo on YouTube TV. I'm probably going to get Ballys, but I found it amusing that it's $20 to basically watch one team vs. $15 to watch every other team.

[Just_Curious]

The Utah Jazz just announced Jazz+, a local streaming option with varied cost tiers. There are a handful of other teams with similar offerings. I think this will become the norm going forward. The Bally's app is trash. I think this could be a good thing if organizations will actually put some dollars and effort into their respective platforms.
