The Thunder scored zero fast break points tonight. It's the first time a Mavs opponent didn't score a single one since April 2022 (Bucks) and just the third time that's happened since 2015.

Wagler's FTR is translating, if everyone is more athletic than you then you gotta be slower than everybody else, and in today's game you get calls by slowing down

Less than 50 players in NBA history have both 600+ blocks and 400+ three-pointers in their careers. Victor Wembanyama just hit 600/400 in his 186th game. After Wembanyama, second-fastest to 600/400 - Jaren Jackson Jr. in 291 career games.

Spo played 12-D chess and engineered a four-game losing streak, causing a national freak out that convinced Giannis to be a roll man.

VERY early and these numbers are going to shift game by game but here's the Lakers' defensive rating with their different C options: Kessler on: 114.4, 39th percentile (slightly below average) Mamu On At C: 118.1, 22nd percentile Looney on: 134, last in NBA

The most important takeaways: There are only about 10 career positive NBA contributors per draft class, focusing on this section of your draft board is of utmost importance. Only roughly 20 players return above replacement level value.

In 6 of the past 7 NBA seasons, a team outside the top 10 in preseason title odds has made the Finals Some interesting possibilities for 2026-27: Heat, Lakers, Pacers, Rockets, Blazers

As promised I made a big update to site stats on patreon. But it still needs some work on table formatting and presentation etc Cosmetics. Fixed GRBNU, added a "injury days missed" model and most importantly TRUE TALENT IS HERE!* *also more other stuff added too...

Looking toward the Warriors lineups of the future: xitter.gq/bballstrategy/status/2…
Replying to @timkawakami
Tiny samples but Yax pairs with Curry and Green are bad. Good results with Podz and Santos individually overall and amazing as a trio. The future core? Also good with B Williams. Super amazing as a quad... in 10 minutes. Get that over 100 minutes asap.

Knicks traded Julius Randall to MN, landed Karl-Anthony towns, won a title. Nets Traded Kevin Durant, James, Harden, and Kyrie Irving, and have nothing to show for it save for some promise and hope. Yet another reason Sean Marks needs to go.

I figure I tweet about the Thunder way too much to not just write an organized article, so I started a Substack for occasional long-form thoughts. Here's a bunch of words about who the Thunder can/should realistically consider trading for: outletpasses.substack.com/p/…

Took a look around the league at the prototype of player that the Thunder would probably want to trade for: My criteria: Between 6'5'' and 6'9'', over 200 pounds, listed at SG/SF/PF on Basketball Reference, under 27, current salary under $6.8 million, no significant extension

Jazz defense is a disaster. Probably not fixable without 2+ major trades and / or a new Coach.

4:41 left in the 3rd quarter last night: - Grizzlies lead the Jazz 74-66 - Will Hardy calls a timeout and puts out an all bench lineup on the floor (Collier/Brice/Svi/Okogie/Bradley) - From 4:41 to 1:40 Memphis goes on a 13-5 run and their lead balloons to 16 Can’t happen.

Blazers are one savvy trade away from being an actual legit contender If they could trade Sharpe and pick(s) for another forward, preferably a long 4 type that can defend and rebound and is a starting caliber player that would come off the bench… lookout I can dream, right???
