The deliberate attempt to shoot more threes early in the season was a bit unnatural. He's found a much better balance.

Yeah this game is no contest. OKC is only in 3rd gear, Bucks don't have another gear

Is Cason Wallace another player like Jalen Williams that basically has no weaknesses? I can't believe how good this thunder team is

Lopez is the biggest waste of size in the NBA. Hard to imagine he was one of best shot blockers not too long ago.

If you want easy money bet on the thunder every game.

41-24 against the spread is insane. For whatever reason Vegas doesn’t pump up the lines that much…against average teams they’re normally like 12 point favorites when it should be 16+

I hate to keep **** on the Bucks but Doc Rivers is a moron. For the life of me I don’t understand why Dame and Giannis aren’t on that floor together more. That would make the Thunder work more on defense, but it’s far too obvious and Docs pee sized brain can’t process that.
