The Thunder are back, and Brandon Rahbar thinks this roster could be the best in the NBA again. But health, depth, and the right rotations will be key to another championship-level run.
John Napier and Brandon preview the season’s biggest Thunder questions: who starts and closes, how Mark Daigneault might use an 11-player rotation, and what the young players’ preseason performances mean for the roster. They also discuss Chet Holmgren’s shot-blocking outlook, Cason Wallace’s potential leap, and where Thomas Sorber and Nikola Topic fit.
Plus, Brandon ranks the Western Conference contenders and makes predictions on SGA’s scoring, All-Star and All-NBA selections, the Thunder’s win total, and the impact of the league’s new emphasis on push-offs.
