    Poor Giddey robbed of his minutes because Malone gave up 😂

  2. PurrySquishyKittens

    Shais the best player in the league I don’t wanna hear any arguments, two way dominance and Jordan-esque shotmaking.

  3. lmaoooyikes

    Non Thunder fans were acting like Shai isn’t a real MVP candidate lol

  4. SmileyCotton

    We don’t need to trade for nobody.

  5. Hell of a game, this team is damn good, we spanked em

  6. Can we please put some respect on the REAL mvps name? Jokic almost averaged an extremely rare quadruple double tonight (7 turnovers)

  7. This team consistently blows my expectations out of the water, TTFU!!

  8. TheLibyanKebabCaliph

    Revenge is a dish best served with maple syrup 🍁 đŸ”„

  9. Courtlandio

    this team continues to impress more and more bro, beating the defending champs twice at home + one being a blowout is a hell of a statement. GG

  10. amari_prince

    After this stretch, I’m gonna say unspeakably homer takes about this team
WE CHAMPIONSHIP

  11. FightTheFade

    I know it was the second night of a b2b for them and games in December are way different than a seven game series in the playoffs
 but man it is hard to not overreact. This team is really special and so much fun to watch!

  12. IDespiseFatties

    #GUYS CAN I PLEASE HAVE MY BEER. I THINK ITS SAFE TO OPEN NOW.

  13. carcie_spip

    We are handling quality teams. This is incredible. Thunder up!

  14. C0smic_sushi

    Great game. Would have loved if JDub was more assertive though. As a future all star he should have more than 2 points going into the 4th.

  15. Majestic-Pickle5097

    Still won’t be a story for ESPN.

  16. shutemdownyyz

    Honestly it feels like the guys have done more in regards to rebounding the last 2-3 games. So many plays that it felt they stood around on they’re going all out for now. The effort at least has been noticeable.

  17. Lu played 32 mins with 4 points and we still won by 26. That man did everything he needed to do plus some. Locked Murray down.

  18. t0ughsting

    I was in Seattle this summer shooting the shit with old coworkers bragging about this team and how good they were going to be and I can’t tell you all how relieved I am that I don’t have to eat my words

  19. Impressive-Cook-9010

    Denver thread is in shambles my goodness

  20. Gloomy-Presence-6539

    Everyone better hop on the Bandwagon before it’s too fast to jump onto!

  21. TheyCallMeTheWizard

    Having Chet feels like having the love child of KD and KG.

    SGA is his own style but very Jordan-like middy and footwork and is even evolving on defense.

    KD 2.0 and Maple Jordan baby

  22. AnkitPancakes

    there isn’t another move for OKC to make if we’re gonna play this well lol. you let this ride, and the growth will come from the natural improvement of dudes with 1-2 years of NBA experience.

    we have the culture. we have the scheme. we have the flexibility. and we obviously have the talent.

    all we need is experience and time to grow. shortcutting this process and adding your favorite nba trade target is just as likely to lower the ceiling of this team than raise it at this point in time.

    we can come back to this in the summer (and the season after that).

  23. New_Essay_4869

    The wins against Minnesota and Denver have convinced me that we are contenders

  24. cheesedip1957

    I live in Denver and had the pleasure of going to both games this month. We for real NOW!!! TTFU!!!

  25. Chickachic-aaaaahhh

    Shai just told me hes just here to ball my guy

  26. hatethosethings

    Why tf have the nuggets played 4 more games then us lol? It’s the only reason they’ve jumped us in the standings a couple times. They weren’t even in the IST

  27. pootiemane

    Ttfu, who cares about a b2b that’s the rizz…

  28. Illustrious_South135

    So funny seeing the nuggets fans crying about the refs in a 26 point loss with only 1 less ft
