With basketball back and a full week in the books it’s time for the weekly power ranking lists to begin. In some cases pundits post their first list prior to the season start while others wait for the a week of games to be completed. Going in, OKC Thunder fans are already cognizant their favorite team won’t be at the top or likely in the upper echelon.
This due to an 0-3 win-less opening week. Still, the experts won’t punish the Thunder too harshly despite their 30th ranked offense. That’s because the squad hung with the Warriors. All while missing star Russell Westbrook throughout training camp, preseason and for the first two games of the season.
