Paycom Center gets all of these renovations and an epic new Jumbotron and then play in Tulsa. That's all I need to take a stance on the new arena vote haha.

Unsure if that's tongue in cheek or not, but they've played a preseason game in Tulsa regularly over the past number of years.

This is off topic of on court, but SGA is tabbed as a model for men’s Skims. I pulled up the website and he is front and center.

Tremendous article. This team is going to shock some folks. Those who’ve been paying attention, know.
What are the predictions on regular season win total?
The over/under on the betting websites seems to be around 44.5 or so. If I had to guess, I would lean towards the under as I think that the Western Conference is going to be much more difficult this season, and it just feels like one final year of really figuring out which players are truly integral to the franchise as their title window really opens up starting next year. I'm thinking it's going to be another season of hovering around .500 and hopefully sneaking into the play-in tournament.
Didnt pick up Poku's option. He will be an RFA this summer it appears. Going to have to make the jump this year I think.
I'm pretty excited about this season. Really hope everyone can stay healthy. I think Ousmane might take a big step forward if he gets some decent minutes. He put on a lot of weight over the summer and looked good at the preseason games I watched. Thunder Up!
I could see them doing a bit better than 44.5 but that probably not far off. The X factor here is that they’re really vibing. I don’t think there’s much chemistry to be worked out. That’s a major head start vs most of the NBA at this time of year. I think they might get off to a hot start. The question will be whether they can maintain that for an entire, grueling season.
I think this team without question makes the first round barring disaster. I don’t know about advancing from there, but stranger things have happened. But I do believe that the statement above is correct; with another season to develop, and maybe with a surgical move or strategic free agent add (it CAN happen), the championship window opens next season.
You can feel the electricity with the rebuild around Shai and Chet. Give it a year or two, Thunder will be a serious competitor.
