Oklahoma City Thunder 2024-25 Season

[kukblue1]

Great win vs the Suns. Yeah they had 3 starters out but any wins without our bigs are great wins. Hartenstein might be back in 2 weeks that would be outstanding. I'm really worried about those teams at the end of the month on the west coast road trip. Kings, Warriors, Lakers. Hartenstein would be very helpful so hopefully he is back in 2 weeks. He was putting up shots pre-game tonight.

I’m not sure I fully understand the in season tournament but I like the idea of it. I don’t understand how we got grouped with the teams we did and if that stays the same each year. But I like the idea of enhancing the importance of some games to keep it exciting. I also like the idea of the courts being different so it’s recognizable the moment you flip the game on. With that being said the designs themselves are a little too much for my tastes. The Thunders isn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be, especially in person. I’d be curious how it looked on TV.

Now after I got back from the game I was watching the Warriors and their court is atrocious. That W looks bad over the trophy and the baseline just looks like one big advert.

We could use a big man while Chet is out.

This is great!

Have to be honest not sure I like our chances tonight vs Dallas and their bigs. We need to shoot the ball well

[kukblue1]

NO Luka tonight for the Mavs. Might make the game watchable now. No crying all game.

You are right on that, oh well, it was a good game at least

The Dallas match up and I would say the Lakers are the reason we got Hartenstein. Fingers crossed he is back in 2 weeks. I would Like too see him back for the 4 game road trip but I would think they would want him to play a home game first. Hate using the word "must win" for games in Nov but the next two Spurs and Trailblazers are two games we can win without a center. If we say Hartenstein is back for the Home game Dec 3rd vs the Jazz that is 6 more games without him. 3-3 I would be totally fine with. Than we have the Jazz at home than road games with two not so great teams in the Raptors and Pelicans. 3 easier teams to get Hartenstein up and going than be ready for the NBA cup. I hope he is back for the first game of the road Trip at the Kings on the 25th but they might want I could also understand why they hold him out a bit longer until that easier stretch.

The mavs are just a bad matchup, even without Luka they dominated and led wire to wire. I realize we are missing our bigs but going back to playoffs last year they’ve simply got our number. It goes without saying we’ll need to get healthy but hopefully we don’t run into them again in playoffs.

I wouldn't go as far as saying they own us. A 1 point game and 2 4 point games is far from being owned. Sure it's not the best match up but it's the reason why we got Hartenstein and Caruso. Both of them are going to make a huge difference if we meet them in the playoffs.

[FighttheGoodFight]

Not to mention in the playoffs PJ Washington had the greatest three point shooting series of all time against us then never showed up again and they lost the finals. You get unlucky sometimes.

[catcherinthewry]

Washington had been shooting 27% from 3 before last night's game. If he only played against the Thunder he would be a HOFer.

17 rebounds also. Once again why we go Caruso. Chet on Lively, Caruso on PJ, Dort on Luka, SGA on Irving, Jdub on Thompson or PJ and put Caruso on Thompson. Hartenstien, Wallace, Wiggins, Joe for back-up. We will be fine against them.
