Welcome to the Week Behind & the Week Ahead, where I’ll recap the most interesting things from the previous week of Thunder basketball and preview the most interesting things in the following week.
The Week Behind
The NBA season is now a week old, and every team has had a few games to digest. Oklahoma City was blessed with 4 games in the first week of the season, but managed to win just 1 of them- an absolute blowout against the Warriors. Their other 3 losses- to Utah, Washington, and Houston- were competitive games late into the 4th quarter before OKC failed in crunch time.
