To get to the finish line first, you need to tune your car better than those around you and have them all working in perfect harmony to beat the rest of the pack. Billy Donovan has 82 laps of tuning the Thunder machine before they lose half the chasing pack in the run to the checkered flag.
The back-court is the engine of this beast and Coach Donovan needs all he can out of it if he is to beat the top class teams of Golden State, San Antonio and Cleveland. Russell Westbrook is the turbo but all other players are moving parts that must tune perfectly with the turbo to obtain peak performance.
