Whatever else about the OKC Thunder

know this. Last year they missed the playoffs. But in the previous five years that KD and Russ led their team to the playoffs in four of them they lost to the team that went on to win the title. This year they lost in the conference finals to GS. The Warriors now lead the Cavs 2 to 0 and the championship is inevitable.

Just saying

Dude, nobody thinks OKC is a bad team. They did choke away an almost guaranteed ring vs the Cavs though. The West is loaded and has been for a while so whomever takes the western conf finals is most likely the nba champ.

Nobody was going to knock off the Warriors this year except the Warriors or an injury bug. Congrats, Thunder almost pulled it off.

That's not the point at all. The point is that for the fifth time in the six years that the OKC Thunder have made the playoffs they lost to the team that went on to win the title. Of course they're one of the top teams in the league everyone knows that. But those losses especially this year indicate how agonizingly close they are, how just one more player and they should be champions.

They need a new state not a new player. They have the chokelahoma stench of flopping on the big stage on them.
