    It's insane how much the OKC D' has improved. If Defensive EPM Rtng was an award the 23-24 Winner was Isaiah Hartenstein w/ Alex Caruso being the runner up. Put together the elite rim protector w/ the elite perimeter player & together their effect is off the charts. Putting that duo on the best defensive playmaking team in the league & now you have the makings of a Defense comparable to 04' Pistons, 90' Pistons, 96' Bulls, 86' Celtics & 83' Sixers.

      #1 seed in the West last year. Lost to Dallas while scoring the same amount of points as them, when PJ Washington turned into prime Klay, and OKC (the best shooting team in the NBA last year) went cold.
      More so, OKC had 2 major weaknesses. 1. Josh Giddey was a net negative and wasn’t being guarded. 2. Lack of rebounding and toughness down low.
      We swapped Giddey with the perfect fit in Caruso, and added iHart who is a top 5 offensive rebounder, top 5 rim protector, and can playmake and do a lot of small things.
      Hope that answers your question as to why OKC is going to continue to dominate.

    The over the top reaction because of "my whole life is consistent". 😂 Jesus Christ. 🤦‍♂️ Sometimes, over the top reactions are annoying, but in this case it was kind of funny.
    Ok, let's go: I like this OKC very much. But 1st: they are very young. This means they will likely lack the stamina/mental strength needed to win a chip. Look at the current Boston and how long it took them to win a singld chip. And in the highly competitive NBA of today, they have a slim chance to repeat that.
    Look, OKC hasn't arrived. They're coming. That means, they will be serious contenders in a near future. I'm not saying it's impossible to win a chip now, but betting makets are modetn day casino. DON'T TRUST THEM. They are trash among trash.
    And btw, I see a lot of stupid people losing a ton of money on the betting market. Like casinos, they are designed for you to lose money. Owners of the betting business are becoming filthy rich because of these fools!
    In my country, there are people starving because they opt to put money on the betting market instead of buying food. We're living in an idiocracy and it goes beyond felon trump. Although, trumpism and trumpists ard tightly associated with the betting market. Well, figures! 🤦‍♂️
    I would refrain from using any betting market data on videos. You come off as... (how can I be subtle here?) ...not smart. The NBA fans deserve better than any association with these grifters from the betting market.

    OKC went 57-25 last year, finished 1st in the west and MASSIVELY exceeded all expectations but they traded away a big part of the success of that team with Giddey for Alex Caruso which clearly is a massive downgrade in overall talent from one player to another. At best Caruso is a defensive role player who OKC didn't need because they already have a ton of shooting guards and they're all better than him. I don't see how anybody can claim they're going to be better or even as good as last year.
