The strange thing is that they were only 7 games behind the 1st seeded Lakers that year. Not only was it brutal, but all 8 playoff teams were very close in win total as well.
One key event contributing to their downfall missing from the timeline: Shortly after trading for Perkins, OKC extended him for 4 years and $36 million. Then when it came time to negotiate Harden's extension, OKC chose to remain under the luxury tax and lowballed Harden. That Perkins extension limited their financial flexibility, and few people think Perkins came close to living up to that contract. Boston was only willing to go to 4 years and $22 million, and once that hit an impasse, they traded Perk. The Perkins contract isn't really among the worst contracts of all time, but the domino effect of that whiff is one of the most significant in recent NBA history. But overvaluing Perkins could've been overcome if the team didn't insist upon trying to win an NBA title with All-NBA superstars while managing a second-tier payroll. Winning doesn't come cheap.
Oh man what a strong team OKC was back in the day. KD,Harden,Russ. They played so well and almost won a title. They managed to draft 3 MVPs but failed to win a title.For me OKC was a great team but didn't ein a title.
If they didn’t send Harden away to Houston when he was just entering his prime…. They could’ve easily had another go at it in 2013…. I’m sorry for you OKC fans though. You all were so close and who knows if you’ll ever get another chance with the management that you have.
It's not like they wanted to send Harden away. OKC was a small market team and they already spent their budget on KD, Russ and Ibaka. And Harden wanted a bigger contract while being the first option, so his leaving was inevitable.
Real Thunder fans know the Kendrick Perkins trade hurt this franchise more than anything. He was such a liability, especially on a team that already had shooting problems. That's why a huge percentage falls on Scott Brooks, he was a terrible offensive coach.
Are you high? Perkins sucks yes. But at least he was a presence. Do you remember Nenad. Dude was constantly bullied. Without that move they never go to the finals. The worst move they made was coming to okc. Ugliest city in the nba. You'll never get a good free agent that isn't in a position to have to prove they can still play on okc. Nobody wants to play there. I mean nobody. Players have retired because okc was the only team that would pick them up
I’d like to request a timeline of the Indiana Pacers from losing to the Lakers in the 2000 Finals to the moment Paul George arrived in Indiana. So 2000-2010.
It would probably be worse! You can't go to a 73-9 team as a Once in a Generation talent, after they beat your team when y'all were up 3-1. Probably the weakest move in basketball i ever witnessed. But KD is still a god with the basketball but that move with ridiculous.
actually he volunteered to come off the bench, god knows why he wanted to. scott brooks asked harden if he wanted to be a starter, but harded prefered coming off the bench. it was on scott brooks as well for even asking james if he wanted to start when he shoulda just forced him to be their starting shooting guard. dude was too talented to volunteer to come off the bench. okc really fumbled the bag trading away a generational talent
Idea for timeline. Every team's timeline from their surefire roster to present. Like a collapse video and vice versa, rise of a team from lottery to playoff or championship
In 2009-10 The only players on OKC that had playoff experience were Nenad Krstic with the nets in 2005, Nick Collison when they were in Seattle, Etan Thomas with the Wizards in 2008, Thabo Sefolosha with the Bulls in 2007, and Veteran Point Guard Kevin Ollie with The Sixers in 2000, 2001, 2002 during his time in Indiana and 2008 with the Sixers again
As a sonics man, this is painful to watch but on the other hand Oklahoma did nothing wrong getting the sonics, Seattle had the arena problems since day one and they never did a thing to fix it
What killed the Sonics chances of staying in Seattle was that the city and state had already put over $1 billion of taxpayer money into new stadiums for the Seahawks and Mariners less than 10 years prior and too many state politicians and citizens didn't want any more spent on the Sonics. Like the Washington State governor said at the time, "I understand how passionate Sonics fans are...I also understand how passionate taxpayers are; I've heard from them loud and clear."
@@Tyrunner0097 that's the thing politicians only care about saving taxes for the taxpayers if it's sports but when it comes to everything else they show no mercy about it
I can't believe they traded Harden over $4 million dollars. It still kills me to this day. Those 3 would have been special and I think they would have at least got one ring together
Just shows how crazy hard it is to win a title in this league. 2010 - just getting started, lost to the eventual champs 2011 - still young, lost to the eventual champs 2012 - lost to one of the best teams in NBA history led by arguably the greatest player in NBA history 2013 - Patrick Beverly... 2014 - Ibaka injury and lost to the eventual champs again...(4th time in 5 playoffs) 2015 - KD injury 2016 - should've been a ring, no way around it, KD couldn't close out that series and then he ran to the team that beat him 🤷🏻♂️ 2017-2019 - Russell gave OKC all he had but there was no way those teams were winning a championship. Still universally loved in OKC though, would love to see him retire here. 2020 - unexpected playoff run with a fun team led by a classy vet 2021-2023: rebuild... And now they're right back in the thick of it. It's truly unprecedented how well this organization is built. They're a small market team that doesnt have as much of a shot at building their teams by signing big superstars so they build through the draft, and they've done a stellar job at it. They have a chance to prove something in the playoffs this year (though I think it's still Denver's party) and they have a really bright future. Don't be surprised if the thunder bring home a Larry O' Brien or 2 in the 2020s! In Presti we trust.🤞
You should have emphasized the Andre Roberson injury. That's the main reason that the thunder underperformed in 2017-18 and 2018-19. They would have made it to at least the second round if they didn't have to start Terence Ferguson
I have always thought that OKC's best chance to win the championship was in 2014(The very strong Spurs still took them 6 games to close out without Ibaka playing 2 games. It would've been different if he was playing) and 2015. 2016 was close too but they blew it :( 2015 was the BEST chance. If only the injuries didn't fk them in 2014 and 15. It still haunts me till today.
Imagine having to deal with a stacked West in 2010 as a super young team, then when finally reaching the finals having to deal with a Lebron super team and then having to deal with dynasty teams like the Spurs and Goldenstate. I'll never think KD's move was the right move, but I can imagine he was fed up.
Great videos, nice work... Only request, change the white background to black if you can. Not as bright, easier on the eyes and easier to view the video past.
If Westbrook win a ring with LeBron I'll be looking at KD sideways for now on. There's no way the OKC team didn't win with all they amazing talent -KD -James Harden -Russell Westbrook -Jeff Green -Kendrick Perkins -Sergi Ibaka -Reggie Jackson
The team was fking dumb to give harden a few more mil so he couldve stayed. They couldve won a ship the next few years if harden was still there. But that OKC team was plagued by injuries since 2012 man. WB injured in 13, ibaka didnt play 2 games vs spurs in 14. KD injured in 15. The healthiest they have been since 2012 was in 2016 but they blew a 3-1 lead.
Man, what a team OKC Thunder was after, and even before the James Harden era. They drafted 3 Most Valuable Players, 2 players with atleast 1 ring (KD with 2, Serge with 1, possibly more) and it was sad on how the big duo of Durant & Westbrook had seperated with just one comeback of a upcoming team, which on how they barely got to the championship (only 1 final appearance, lost in 5 games) They had less time to figure out the chemistry and the evolving of Harden. It all went downhill when they lost the NBA Finals and the West Conf. Finals, with the trade of Durant.
Timeline suggestion: Pistons rise and fall with Ben Wallace like when they won the championship then they kept on losing and yeah (idk I would like to see it if you haven’t made it already)
Man.. I’m not an OKC fan and I never was but trading Harden was a big mistake but no one knew he would become the player he became. It’s still a what If type of scenario. I mean if Harden would have never got traded, would OKC would have a championship by now?
Jeez I can’t think of many franchises that had that many successful picks and couldn’t win a single finals like seriously from 2007-2010 they drafted KD, Westbrook, Ibaka, Harden, and Reggie Jackson???
The Thunder lost the championship the day they traded for Perkins. He was so bad and Scott Brooks would never sit him. You can't have two guys like Thabo and Perkins on the court together.
Sucks to see what happened because them boys was on their way...injuries, management and internal issues messed everything up...frm 2009 to 2016 they was consistent, multiple 50 win seasons and conference finals appearances smh
The one thing I like about the thunder was consistency in winning but ever since they traded James Harden to the Rockets they could never have that scoring and planking ability that Harden has and it’s been there biggest weakness every year in the playoffs and since harden is a guard they needed him to help keep the ball rolling when Westbrook was either injured or on the bench so the thunder really messed up
The Fallen Franchise of the Oklahoma City Thunder...... Formally known as the Seattle SuperSonics from 2007 to 09..... Western Conference Title - 2012 Endless Rebuilding after reaching the 2012 NBA Finals...... Exterminated by the Miami Heat's big 3 squad at game 5....... After many tries, the team made it to the West Finals in 2014 fell to the S.A. Spurs of game 6, Blew a 3-1 deficit against the G.S. Warriors in a decisive western conference finals game 7 of 2016, Kevin Durant left, Russell Westbrook leaves, James Harden took off, Serge Ibaka left the building, Well everyone knows what happened after that timeline....... Unbelievably Sad & Heartbreaking. Bring back the Sonics!!! For me, the OKC Thunder don't exist as a basketball team anymore but still staying strong.

the fact that winning 50 games in 09-10 only got them the 8th seed in the west is insane
Indeed. Very stacked
You should see the 2008 Western Conference, 7 games separated the 1-8 seeds, the 55 win Suns were the 6th seed
To be fair 4 teams had 50-32 in the west that season
Lebron been to more finals but no one has had a harder road to the finals than the black mamba.
East and West had DEPTH!
2:33 50 wins and only 8th, the west was brutal back in 2010
So many powerhouse teams
The strange thing is that they were only 7 games behind the 1st seeded Lakers that year. Not only was it brutal, but all 8 playoff teams were very close in win total as well.
The West was really talented that year. Kobe's Lakers, Dirk's Mavericks, Nash's Suns, Melo's Nuggets....it was really competitive.

Terrible coaching in the playoffs
One key event contributing to their downfall missing from the timeline:
Shortly after trading for Perkins, OKC extended him for 4 years and $36 million. Then when it came time to negotiate Harden's extension, OKC chose to remain under the luxury tax and lowballed Harden. That Perkins extension limited their financial flexibility, and few people think Perkins came close to living up to that contract. Boston was only willing to go to 4 years and $22 million, and once that hit an impasse, they traded Perk.
The Perkins contract isn't really among the worst contracts of all time, but the domino effect of that whiff is one of the most significant in recent NBA history. But overvaluing Perkins could've been overcome if the team didn't insist upon trying to win an NBA title with All-NBA superstars while managing a second-tier payroll. Winning doesn't come cheap.

The Fallen Franchise of the Oklahoma City Thunder......
Formally known as the Seattle SuperSonics from 2007 to 09.....
Western Conference Title - 2012
Endless Rebuilding after reaching the 2012 NBA Finals......
Exterminated by the Miami Heat's big 3 squad at game 5.......
After many tries, the team made it to the West Finals in 2014 fell to the S.A. Spurs of game 6,
Blew a 3-1 deficit against the G.S. Warriors in a decisive western conference finals game 7 of 2016,
Kevin Durant left,
Russell Westbrook leaves,
James Harden took off,
Serge Ibaka left the building,
Well everyone knows what happened after that timeline.......
Unbelievably Sad & Heartbreaking.
Bring back the Sonics!!!
For me, the OKC Thunder don't exist as a basketball team anymore but still staying strong.
🥺🥺🥺
