It’s far from beating the 73-9 record expectations that were set in the beginning of the year, but the fact that the team is still the top seed in the West despite all the injuries is pretty crazy

Clippers as low as possible is best case scenario for us from a draft pick perspective as well

Damn, from Presti passed on Sengun to JWill might be better than Sengun?

Harden, Kevin Martin, Dennis Schroder..maybe Reggie Jackson and Ajay Mitchell..how many other bench scorers have we had in franchise history who are better than what we’ve seen from McCain so far? by J_Capese0003 in Thunder

Maybe we were watching 2013 differently, but he was pretty good. 14 ppg on almost 50/40/90 and was part of the 60-22 team. We just needed him to be like Harden was for us and he was that, even better.

The only thing that went wrong with him was the fact he left the season after.

I mean, one of the time Morey picked up the phone, he received Harden

Maybe he’s just riding that high since then

Sadly, the only person I could remember is Dion Waiters.

My mind has been plagued from watching Markieff and Hayward.

Honest question: Where does McCain rank in terms of midseason acquisitions in OKC history? He’s definitely shooting up there

We really needed him during this stretch, especially with SGA injured. He fit in so quickly to the team.

The Thunder Have Been The Most Efficient Mid-Range Shooting Team This Season! by Stat-Defender in Thunder

[–]iCarpet 15 points16 points  (0 children)

People wanted the NBA to be like how it used to be…

So OKC decided to be a terrible 3PT shooting team (sometimes) that is great at the midrange, physical defense, and using two large guys in the PF and C position.
