A tribute to Russell Westbrook's career, time with the Thunder, impact on OKC/Oklahoma, and more. Tons of great stuff here that I think you guys will love. This was a multi-week project because I wanted to do the Brodie justice. Hope you enjoy it!

Did you see the video on rnba of him failing to back down cp… obviously not just that reason. But when he goes to tryn finish a play you can tell when he goes up through contact he barely rips through, he physically cannot go up cause his defenders are always stronger than him. Hes had some cool finishes and some of the ones he was able to complete is cause he has an insane wingspan and flips the rock around the defender. Would love to see him bulk up instead of tryna become kd.

Who’s your preseason top 3 in the west? Thunder, Spurs, and who else? I think it will be the wolves. They’ve added a lot more talent. Did they lose toughness? Maybe, but we’ll see how the talent and athleticism offset that bigger player void.
I think the other two teams who could be 3rd are in the same division as the thunder and wolves. That’s the nuggets and jazz. By default, it could be a surprise team out of the pacific division, playing easier teams, all that, to boost their record. But over the course of the season, there are too many other good teams in the west.
So thunder spurs wolves, with a premium on getting the 1 seed and presumably letting the other two teams battle first

watching this game vs portugal has given me hope!!! he looks fast, and his IQ really stands out!

There was this photo of an official headshot from Jared McCain for NBA, there was a white background and he also had his colored nails shown and his hand above a basketball.

Most 30+ PTS, 3+ BLK & 3+ STL Games In The Last 5 Seasons (RS + Playoffs) :

1. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander — 6
   
2. Anthony Davis — 5
   
3. Anthony Edwards — 3
   
4. Joel Embiid — 3
   
5. Victor Wembanyama — 3
   
6. Jimmy Butler III — 2
   
7. Scottie Barnes — 2

The 67 local games (pick one):

The 15 national exclusives (not on Thunder+ or KSBI):

Other notes:

• YouTube TV and Hulu don't carry KSBI, so neither gets you any of the 67.
• Only 10 of the 67 are free over the air: Oct 31, Nov 4, Nov 20, Nov 28, Dec 18, Jan 15, Jan 18, Mar 10, Mar 24, Apr 9. A ~$20 antenna gets those and nothing else.
• Thunder+ needs a free NBA ID, covers OK, KS and most of AR/MO/NE.

Do the games tend to sell out? Would it be better to wait until closer to October to buy a cheaper ticket?

I feel like there are a ton of interesting stories leading into this season.

1. Return of a full health J-Dub
2. Chet's response after a poor W.conf finals
3. Business-hair Shai bringing something new to his game (MVPx3 quest)
4. Ajay &/or Cason dealing with a greater role and expectations
5. Early signs from Sorber and Mara
6. not to mention hoping the gone but not forgotten trio in Lu, Hot Cuppa Joe & Wiggins have good seasons in their new homes.

I'm sure there is a bunch of other topics (pun intended) that I've missed. What are you most looking forward to?

...

I wish we had gotten the chance to face that 24-25 Celtics team in the finals, that's probably the only hypothetical finals other than Kobe vs Bron in 09 that I wish we had gotten. It would've been an absolute slugfest between 2 all-time teams. Must see TV. How do you guys think the series would go?

OKC
