The Thunder are WINNING the NBA Offseason... 

i have watched this team at the highest mountains and in the lowest depths, I have stuck with them since 2011 and would never change teams, i watched as we went through a rebuild, watched shai in his first season with okc, watched dort dive for a loose ball possession against the timberwolves in the 2019 season not knowing he was gonna be a key piece to this championship, watched us trade cp3 after the 2020 season, watch us be not a good team for 2 years, as we drafted poku, theo maledon, giddey, jre, tre mann, aaron wigs, watched as we took down the mavs with a joe miracle while i was at a party, watched us go 40-42 last year and take down the pels in a play in game and ofc watched this season as well, to say i am so happy to be a loyal thunder fan is a understatement and i have never been so excited for the next nba season to start...THUNDER NATION LETS GOOOOOO

okc is unfair right now, they are building their team perfectly , who knew trading arguably the best plyer in franchise history in russ and also pg would set them up for all of this

With Hartenstein at center, the Thunder can finally move Holmgren to point guard as they always planned.

to extend wiggins and joe AND get hartenstein makes me 100% confident we’re winning the 2025 championship

Man oh man it feels good to be a thunder fan

The thing that everyone is missing with the Hartenstein signing is the team option in year 3. OKC could accept that option, and package Hartenstein with picks. Year 3 is also when Chet and JDub need to be paid, so now we have a LOT of flexibility to either let Hartenstein walk or trade him, we can do whatever we want

Let's not forget to thank the Clippers for giving us SGA and all of those first round picks for what ended up being nothing.

Thunder fan here, I live in the heart of OKC, and I could not be more pumped up after losing Durant & Westbrook, and coming so close with those guys to winning it all. Thunder have officially contenders now, Sam Presti & company are phenomenal!

Dude's smile at the beginning is just "we won" lol

Presti always looks like a cold calculated Bond Villian. The dude was put on this Earth for Thunder Basketball.

Even if it's not this next year, it WILL happen. Gotta love the Thunder as a whole. Let's see what happens with dieng this year

Thunder fans we use pray for times like this again

I think they should get James Wiseman. He will be cheap as hell. He will gladly take it, be humble being backup center, & if he could develop to be 50% of his talent, he could be a 6 ppg 8 rpg off bench, & a 10 ppg 12 rpg as a strarter. No need for him to be a focus of offense. Just be a Nick Collison type, set screens, rebound, defend the paint.

I wanted this guy in our team a year or 2 ago so I'm happy to see this fella here now especially after the season we had last season love it!!! It's like I knew we were getting this guy

Mavericks vs Thunder part 2 in WCF next season is going to be a. MOVIE🍿

Depending on the offensive leap of jdub and chet i think will be difference if we win the chip this year or not

So basically they’re going 82-0 by the way he’s speaking about em

WE ARE SO BACK 🥹🙏

From seeing paul watson, theo maledon, giddey and others, to seeing this unstoppable team is actually insane, OKC IN 4

I been a fan since the sonics I love this team 2026 should be the year

Yooooo just found the RU-vid channel love the content on BR. Just subscribed

This Ain’t Even About Just Next Season Like Fellas This Is About Us Being Good For YEARS .. Extending Joe & Wiggins Solidifies Us Being On Of The Deepest Teams Until 2030 Honestly .. Not Just Good Which We Be But DEEP .. Nuggets Just Lost KCP .. Mavs Lost DJJ .. We Won’t Have Those Problems & We Have The Picks To Replenish Any Players We Lose Like Cason Wallace .. Lu Dort .. Cant Keep These Top Of The Line Defenders Forever Teams Will Come Calling Just Like We Did With IHart .. To All My Thunder Ik We Was Good Last Year But WE BACK & BETTER THAN EVER

please make more videos just ranting about how good the thunder are i love hearing about it!!!

I’m so excited for this coming season!!!

if the thunders big three was shai, ihart, and caruso, they'd still be a high level team. those two guys are likely coming off the BENCH for this stacked team

Remember when people were calling OKC the "Black Hole" of the league back when they were tanking and now they're considered favorites😂 Man how fast time flies

We need to see the chemistry before I start saying they beat the Mavs in a playoff final but OKC lookin real scary now for sure.

Great video. As a Thunder fan, I share your excitement. Awesome day. Markkanen...if...wow.

Trading Giddey is going to go down as a horrific trade but at least they addressed the elephant in the room with signing a solid big man who can help when they go up against teams like Minnesota and Dallas who have a couple of bigs that really hurt them. Anybody out there though who thinks that OKC got the best end of the Giddey trade truly doesn't know basketball. Giddey is capable of averaging a triple double and you'll all find out how good he really is in the next few years. Caruso isn't even as good as Wiggins. I don't get it.

Sam Prestie is the Tom Brady of GMs

I wanted deni avdija and hartenstein but can’t complain

In the context of 29M for a 5th or 6th man not worth at all. But in a context of 29M to fix your biggest problem 100% worth

If I was questioning if they can get to the Finals, these moves stop all that. Their team is stacked!

We are so back. Thunder up babyyyyy

YES 👏!! Sam Presti and the others in management have been looking like Geniuses since the westbrook/George trades! They still have many years of draft picks from the clippers as well! The teams is a Finals Contender Now! This is huge with Alex Caruso as well! Alex is a dog on defense man. I’m going to enjoy next year. This year was great experience for them. Now is the time to win it in the next few years!

Okc fan. Sam Presti’s best pitch to free agents. Russ and pg trades literally jumps started the re-load. Now he can say okc develops stars. He’s only been doing it for a decade and a half through 2 coaches. He has a young coach that’s probably the best basketball minded coach he’s had. Sam Presti leaves OKC we literally wouldn’t be a team. THUNDER UP!!!!!!!

I wanna see a lineup of sga dort jdub chet hartenstein seems like a good lineup against stronger centers

hard not to pick OKC to win the west

We got our captain America, our Thor, our Iron man, our Widow, our Hawkeye, now WE HAVE OUR INCREDIBLE HULK

I can't sleep either buddy, I'm night shift and my adrenaline is going lightspeed bruh

As of now theyre my pick to win it all. I think we'll get another new champion team this year!

iHart holy overpay still, love the signings of Wiggs and Isaiah tho

So far, I think the Thunder did everything they are supposed to be doing. It must be great to be an OKC Thunder fan. You and Ryan must be stoked so far, as the only 2 teams that legit got nearly everything sorted are the ones you both support. I'm not even convinced which was better to have, Caruso or IHart or even keeping their trusty roleplayers Wiggins and Joe. Why not ALL of them? :) So far, I'm very cautiously worried about my two teams, the Pelicans and Mavs. I was really disappointed seeing Naji go, but he went to the Mavs so that one is in a good place, going to shine next to Luka and hopefully start for the season or have more than enough minutes off the bench. This free agency thing is really stressful. Not only do you not want to lose your core players that you've grown to love and know their strengths, when they walk or get signed by someone else, you could get them see replaced by someone that isn't anywhere close, or on a contract that doesn't make sense. I have legit nightmares after losing both Larry Nance and Jonas Valanciunas, that our new NBA center will be Omer Yurtseven or something equally unbelievable.

Cone spoke it into existence

Everybody seems to be winning the NBA off-season 😂😂😂 I guess that's why we play the games

Skeptical of the Hartenstein signing, he could be the Bismack Biyombo of 2024... For those of you too young to remember, back in 2016 (God, that feels like a lifetime ago) Bismack Biyombo was able to parlay an above-average showing in the playoffs with the Toronto Raptors where he put up some highlight worthy blocks and dunks including a 26-rebounds game against Lebron's Cavs but still single digits points and rebound averages (sound familiar?) into a 4 year 72 million dollar contract with the Orlando Magic... which was horrendous then and even more so in hindsight! That was the summer of nightmarish contracts. I would think that after the Kendrick Perkins fiasco of the Thunder 1.0 that Uncle Sam Presti would have learned his lesson and shy away from offensively limited big men... Now, Hartenstein is a better player objectively overall than Biyombo and Perkins. He plays solid defense and has a nice floater and touch around the basket. He's no Jokic, but he can make the right reads and passes. He's not a blackhole with the ball in his hand; he does have some dexterity, skills, and ability to play-make for himself and his teammates. We just have to wait and see if his performance in this last playoff was a flash in a pan or something sustainable that he can build from, and whether or not he fits with this iteration of Thunder 2.0. The best part about his contract is that it's really only a 2-year contract, with the third year being a team option, so if he doesn't fit in, he'll be gone after next season. This reminds me a lot of the contract Bruce Brown received last offseason after his championship run with the Nuggets. For the Thunder, if Hartenstein doesn't work out, it is big enough that it can be used for matching salary to trade for a better player, maybe even a star possibly (*cough* Giannis *cough*).

Hartenstein and Caruso are two HUGE pickups. Wow.

When I saw the Hartenstein deal I knew "Cone is gonna have a field day!" Holmgren and Hartenstein will be unreal

I don’t like the Thunder but this is probably the best roster since the KD warriors

Is hartenstein still gonna wear 55? Huge fan of him last season. Incredible player.

I love this team

I don't think it's as simple as "he will strat or be a sixth man". I think it depends on the opponent. Against most teams they will play their upgraded small-ball lineup with chet at the 5, but they will also play Chet at the 4 with I-hart against bigger teams like the nuggets, wolves, bucks. This gives them great versatility. I love it.

Bro lost me when he said KAT was a bruiser 💀 dude stays out on the perimeter more than a guard

They can’t keep getting away with this 😅

LETS GOOOOOOOOO! Trust in OKC

wiggins extension made me so happy by the time the contract is up he will be worth 2x that

Let’s go get that ring

Billy Butcher "This line-up is diabolical."

As a Bucks fan. I know how you feel and am happy for you. OKC is up next for sure

They should trade for Dorian Feney-Smith and Denis Schroeder.

ive never seen cone like this

I wanted OKC to get Quickley, but his free agency was restricted and no way raptors were letting him go.

OKC have 10 guys that will be in the rotation not including players from the draft. If Topic, Jones, and Mitchell all pan out like our 2022 draft class, then there is no way that we don’t win the finals next year in my opinion. We just have so much talent.

Do we sign another vet addition or….

Cone the thunder actually can still get Lauri too. He only makes 18 mill this year. And our clippers picks have more value now

Let's get it son! Thunder up!

I Hart may be a bit of an overpay, but no big deal considering how many team friendly deals they have. Getting I Hart & Caruso checks all the boxes - size, defense, shooting & rebounding without costing a single draft pick! All of this at a total cost of losing Giddy, who was a really bad fit anyway? Unbelievable! Plus they managed to lock up Joe & Wiggins, draft a player with the 12th pick that arguably has the highest upside of anyone in the entire 2024 draft while still retaining their mid level exemption to add even another player? That's just crazy. Finally, although we just finished the 2024 draft, it's nuts to think about next year's draft and their FOUR first round picks in what is projected to be a really deep draft. Wow!

As a Bulls fan, I'm sad to see AC go. As a basketball fan, I can't wait to watch OKC this coming season.

Nuggets fan, I'm happy for Serbian Topic. Kid is a gem. Lucky to have him. Still Nuggets will kick your ass.

Yes sir!!! ❤❤❤

I am saying it. If Jalen Williams manages to become 24 ppg player without becoming worse on defence, we are winning the title next year.

I like how sam didn’t want pay them less money they deserve that money I love my team this we going to playoffs nxt season

I have been saying this ever since they signed Hartenstein. About time someone realizes it. Runner up MVP, Runner up ROTH, one of the best records last season, coach of the year, sognificantly improved their roster in the off season. It just blows my mind that there aren't more people talking about them tbh. It's crazy how they have all that, got significantly much better, and still about to be underdogs yet again 😂😆. 🤯

They should get a Backup big forsure

Okc Celtics finals gonna feed families

Dillon jones is so underrated for our team

As a Mariners and bills fan, I can confidently say this is the first time in my life. I think we actually have a shot.

Presti may never pay for a meal in town again. especially if they win a ring. which I think is in the cards. how this is set up for now and the future is as good as I've ever seen from any gm

yes, yes we are

He hit 14/30 from 3 at Clippers, just being a threat will help

I don’t think the thunder could extend markkanen’s expiring contract next year and fix both Chet and Dub’s new contract. I don’t think… could they?

I'm not a big fan of OKC. But based on the trades they made, solely looking at both teams on paper, I would pick this new OKC team to beat Dallas.

#ThunderUp

Definitely the 1st seed in the west convincingly this time

Honestly I don't think Sam Presti can go wrong with whatever he decides to do Becaause I think next year were getting the most favorable of picks Houston Philly and us if Houston doesn't end up in the top 4 Also Miami first round pick would become unprotected if they end up making the lottery next year which by the way would be the same season Jimmy Butler ends up becoming a free agent So we might be getting 2 lottery picks in next years cycle which hopefully means we get Cameron Bozer that's the one thing that's missing from thi team

I’m confused, you said Hart was going to come off the bench yet in the Caruso video you also said he’s coming off the bench??? I’ve been on the wave of Hart starting and Caruso and Cason run the secondary guards👀👀. I respect whatever opinion you give, just feel like Hart is too big of an acquisition to not start?

The Thunder are just too deep now man, y'all got Shai, Dort, J-Dub, Chet, and Hartenstein as the guys I'd start most nights, plus on the bench you have Wallace, Caruso, Joe, and Wiggins, plus J-Will as the situational backup 4 or 5. Y'all could actually go ten deep in the playoffs and it wouldn't be a detriment to your team. Wouldn't be advisable, but also not automatically a bad thing

I’m curious what you think the starting lineup will be? I would like Hartenstein to start so Chet doesn’t have to battle jokic and AD among other bigs all year. Or do you think it would be best to have him as a 6th man?

Still need another shooter. The Mavs clearly got better than us with Klay alone. IHart is great but we didn't lose because of rebounds. We had nobody to cancel out PJ Washington. We need Lauri plain and simple.

If we get Markanen it is game over. He is probably going to the Warriors?

Thunder up!!

Cason Wallace, Caruso, Wiggins, JWill, Hartenstein With Joe, Dieng, Topic, Dillon Jones, and Kenrich coming off the bench. How many wins does this hypothetical team win in the NBA?

It would be better if they had Eddy and Waters III.

3 point efficiency will matter to this team when it comes to the playoffs they don’t have knock down shooter really .Your best player is a horrendous 3 point shooter .

Another Body to throw at Luka and Kai, and someone to help Chet against Gafford and Lively. Sheesh Mavs the team to beat now

I think they’ll start both bigs

Cone,next years Championship.

Sam Presti, Nico Harrison and Brad Stevens running circles arround all other GMs.

Chet should play pf

Thunder r op
