SGA EMBARRASSES Hornets | Thunder PULL AWAY | Chet Impresses



SGA EMBARRASSES Hornets | Thunder PULL AWAY | Chet Impresses

Oklahoma City Thunder turn a sluggish start into domination, torching the Charlotte Hornets with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s electric third-quarter outburst. Can the Thunder’s “flip the switch” mentality fuel a deep postseason push?

Rylan Stiles spotlights SGA’s stellar 33-point night, the defensive prowess that anchors the Thunder, and Chet Holmgren’s vital two-way impact as OKC flexes its frontcourt depth. Discussion centers on Lu Dort’s return, Cason Wallace’s All-Defensive Team potential. Analytical insights cover OKC’s paint dominance, fast break efficiency, and how the squad overcomes early turnovers. Will the Thunder keep raising the bar against true contenders in upcoming NBA Cup and holiday matchups?

    Rylan, I’m VERY concerned about Dort. He has stunk all year. For some reason he’s gotten it back in his head like it’s 2020 and he has free rein to go cook.

    When he was out, we proved that we didn’t need him. Our defense didn’t suffer one bit. He kills our offense though, especially when he can’t shoot. Give those minutes to the group of Ajay, Joe, Wiggins, Caruso.

    We need to bring iHart back. He’s much more valuable and irreplaceable than Dort is. Save money by letting Dort walk and give it to iHart. We HAVE to keep iHart. He’s vital.

    Sga back to back mvp. So many key players missing games, and sga not only takes the thunder to the best record, but has sat more 4th quarters than he's played

    I was in attendance and thought the same about the Carlson challenge. Maybe to show support for his player? 🤷🏾‍♂️

    Giannis and Jokic are playing phenomenal hoops right now. But, I'm hoping OKC continues to have a monster season and Shai gets his 2nd MVP as well as another title for OKC.

    Also, as a Piston fan who started watching the Thunder because I liked their defense and how it reminded me of the Pistons team I grew up watching. It's pretty cool to see my Pistons finally hitting their stride and, fingers crossed, maybe my two favorite teams being on a collision course with OKC in the playoffs at some point in the future.

    Chet at the 4 with Hartenstein has incredible stats this year. Chet has definitely raised his game. I also support Wallace starting over Dort. Wallace much better at handling the ball. Making the offense more fluent.

    I know Dort missed the last 5 games so he was rusty…..but I'm sorry, he is a liability on offense. We have enough stout defenders so I wouldn't mind trading him and Dieng for someone nice
