Why The OKC Thunder Are UNFAIR

It is time to understand just how good this Thunder team is. After winning a championship, OKC has come back looking even sharper, overwhelming teams with historic defense and discovering a second rounder who suddenly looks like their third best player.
In this BBALLBREAKDOWN, Coach Nick shows why their defense is causing a meltdown across the league. OKC’s backcourt pressure, nonstop swiping at the ball, perfect weakside rotations, and elite walling at the rim have produced the lowest defensive rating we have seen in six years.
Then we highlight Ajay Mitchell, the rookie-turned-weapon who is shredding defenses with fearless drives, elite footwork, improved shooting, and perfect reads out of five out and HORNS spacing. Add in Hartenstein’s passing and Chet’s emerging dominance and it becomes clear why this team looks even more dangerous than last season.

Thunder is definitely a better team than last year
This is the only team I really feel can go back to back I thought my Celtics could but this OKC team is just different
“If you care about winning you’ll get better on defense.” -Jeff Van Gundy
If this OKC continues improvement Shai might have a curry level or even a lebron level goat run.
Shea Shea way over rated. OKC Plays as good or better without him. And…take away the scam fouls the league gives him… he's barely above average.
Coaching doesn't get enough credit
Gee OKC how come the league lets you have this many weapons?
cut to sam presti whos pockets are overflowing with draft picks
i see poetic justice how the #1 seed thunder were bounced from the playoffs by a “hand is part of the ball” foul game 6 vs the Mavs in ‘24 and have used that same philosophy to run the league the last 18 months
I put €100 on the Thunder to win 74 or more games this season. The payout is €1100
It has a fair chance to hit
Yes, and they're going to go back-to-back.⚡️
We all know every champion by the following year got this secret boost of confidence that's why this year's thunder is better than last year
AJ Mitchell = SGA Lite. With him coming off the bench to spell SGA, there isn't going to be the dreaded "offensive stagnation" issue when SGA sits, that has sometimes plagued them in the past.
Man those expansion teams couldn't come fast enough
Thank you for this.
2016 Cavs thought we were injured the year before and almost beat the Warriors. Now we had depth and we are healthy, 2016 championship is guaranteed. Men they almost blew that one. Hope Denver does not have same mentality. OR…..it doesn't matter what they believe at all
This definitely a new feeling, I remember as a okc fan being on everyone side against the warriors dominance, so this is how the true warrior fans felt, nice😊
Only bums who never played ball or hacks think 4:34 isn’t a foul?!? smh you’re insane.
4:00 "cleanly sneaks in there" No. His first contact is on the wrist/forearm!
Holmgren slowly becoming the new tim Duncan in this era drafted by a loaded team and being great as a pf and a complementary pieces specially in defense
Ajay Mitchell would have came in handy against CJ McConnell
Pepperidge farm remembers sam presti hoarding draft picks like five years ago.. nothing unfair about the Thunder they really invested and built this team for their future
The morons on Twitter have never seen their team play great defense, so that’s why they were mad at the video
Okc is a dynasty waiting to happen and will win 4-6 titles before all is said and done great chemistry incredible sga and a coach who is a master at calling plays
Foul baiting on both sides of the ball.
Then ref favored hacks.
Refs won it for them last years. Rarely do all teams get the same whistles.
If these isn't a video about the refs, I'm disliking this video because that's the only secret that they're using.
Nah man that Wallace steal is a foul
Edit* 15 sec later lavine gets fouled .
I like OkC but I think both of those plays have always been a foul
And possibly 2 top picks next year
Ajay Mitchell can unlock this OKC half court offense.
