Theresa Boyd+FollowWhy OKC Thunder’s 3-point defense is a big worryOKC Thunder fans, this stat is tough to ignore: the Thunder are letting opponents hit threes at one of the highest rates in the league, and it’s starting to show in the win-loss column. Despite having some elite shooters themselves, OKC is only middle-of-the-pack in their own three-point makes, while giving up a whopping 14.6 threes per game at nearly 38%. Injuries and lineup shuffles haven’t helped, but if this trend keeps up, it could derail their hopes for a repeat championship run. What do you think is the fix—better defense, a trade, or something else? #Sports #Basketball #OKCThunder00Share
rachel60+FollowNikola Topic’s comeback journey inspires OKCNikola Topic, the Thunder’s rookie guard, just finished chemotherapy for testicular cancer and is already back in the gym. Even while fighting cancer, he kept working out and supporting his team. Now, after months of treatment and rehabbing a torn ACL, he’s training hard with coaches and teammates, aiming for his NBA debut. The way Topic has handled everything—staying positive, showing up, and pushing through—has earned him huge respect from the OKC community and beyond. How do you think this kind of resilience shapes a team’s spirit? #Health #BodyHealth #OKCThunder10Share
Ryan Lopez+FollowThunder’s recent slump could be a blessingOKC Thunder’s hot streak cooled off with a rough patch, but maybe that’s not the worst thing. Chasing the all-time wins record was fun, but it also brought a ton of pressure and risked burning out key players before the playoffs. Now, with the record chase less likely, the Thunder can focus on staying healthy and learning from adversity—just what Coach Daigneault wants. Facing every team’s best shot now could actually toughen them up for another deep playoff run. What do you think: Is this midseason stumble a hidden advantage? #Sports #Basketball #OKCThunder00Share
Adam Smith+FollowDid Chris Finch break the Thunder’s whistle?Before Chris Finch’s ejection on December 12, the Thunder were 25–2. Since then? They are 5–5, and their record is 30-7 now. Finch has been one of the more vocal critics of how OKC’s physical, swarm-heavy defense gets officiated, so his blow-up at the refs wasn’t exactly out of nowhere. At the time, OKC looked unstoppable. People were seriously talking about win-record territory. However since that moment, the Thunder have looked far more mortal. What do you think is going on here? #NBA #OKCThunder #NBADiscussion #Officiating #BasketballDebate 00Share
Jennifer Wilson+FollowNikola Topic’s inspiring fight on and off the courtSeeing Nikola Topic, just 20 years old, pushing through chemotherapy and still showing up for workouts at Paycom Center is nothing short of incredible. After being sidelined by an ACL tear, he’s now facing testicular cancer—but his determination hasn’t wavered. Coach Daigneault says Topic’s professionalism and mental toughness are shining through, even as his body endures so much. It’s not clear when he’ll play again, but his attitude is winning huge respect from teammates and fans alike. How do you think this kind of resilience shapes a team’s spirit? #Health #BodyHealth #OKCThunder00Share
Susan Reeves+FollowIsaiah Joe’s impact could be Thunder’s secret weaponOklahoma City’s red-hot start has hit a bump, but the real story is how much Isaiah Joe changes the game for the Thunder. When he’s on the court, OKC’s three-point shooting jumps from average to elite—he’s hitting a career-best 43% from deep and taking more shots than ever. But when he’s out or playing limited minutes, the team’s offense cools off fast. With recent losses exposing this trend, it feels like the Thunder’s next move should be simple: give Joe more minutes and let him keep firing. What do you think—should Joe’s role grow even more? #Sports #Basketball #OKCThunder00Share
Patrick Gonzales+FollowOKC fans hit with double heartbreakOklahoma sports fans had a rough Friday night—first, the Sooners fell to Alabama in the College Football Playoff, and then, less than an hour later, the Thunder lost to the Timberwolves. For a team with an NBA-best record, every loss stings, especially against a big rival. Still, Thunder coach Mark Daigneault and Sooners coach Brent Venables both reminded everyone that setbacks are part of the journey. With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander still playing at an MVP level, there’s plenty of hope left for OKC. How are you all feeling after this double blow? What’s next for our teams? #Sports #Basketball #OKCThunder00Share
Theresa Boyd+FollowIsaiah Joe lights up OKC, passes WestbrookIsaiah Joe just made Thunder history—he’s now ahead of Russell Westbrook for most games with four or more threes in OKC franchise history! After missing four games with a knee injury, Joe came back firing, dropping four triples against the Clippers and helping the Thunder cruise to a big win. Since his return, OKC’s three-point shooting has skyrocketed, and Joe’s become one of the team’s most reliable shooters. With his current pace, he could crack the top 10 in all-time threes for the Thunder by season’s end. How big of a difference do you think Joe makes for OKC’s offense? #Sports #Basketball #OKCThunder10Share
Lisa Ramirez+FollowOKC Thunder rally behind Nikola Topic’s fightNikola Topic’s journey with the OKC Thunder has been nothing short of remarkable. After tearing his ACL before even stepping onto an NBA court, he powered through rehab, only to face an even tougher battle—testicular cancer—right after his preseason debut. What stands out isn’t just his resilience, but the way the Thunder family has his back. Coach Daigneault and Jalen Williams both spoke about Topic’s maturity and positive spirit, even on the toughest days. It’s inspiring to see a young player handle so much adversity with such grace. How do you think this kind of support impacts a team’s culture? #Health #BodyHealth #OKCThunder10Share
Ryan Lopez+FollowThunder’s record run has OKC buzzingThe Oklahoma City Thunder are rewriting what’s possible in the NBA right now. With a jaw-dropping 23-1 start, they’re not just chasing another championship—they’re on pace to smash the all-time regular season wins record. ESPN’s Tim Bontemps even wonders if this squad could go down as the greatest team ever, not just the best of the year. Of course, it’s not just about racking up wins; they’ll need to seal the deal with another Finals trophy. What do you think—are we witnessing NBA history in the making, or is it too soon to crown OKC as the GOAT? #Sports #Basketball #OKCThunder00Share
