    The Oklahoma City Thunder have easily had one of the more impressive resumes so far throughout the course of the 2024 NBA offseason, the 2024 NBA Draft, trades, free agency, whatever you want to discuss. They have continued to surprise the majority of the NBA world with every move. Whether that involves the Alex Caruso trade, the Isaiah Hartenstein free agency signing, etc. The OKC Thunder will be looking a lot different in the 2025 NBA season, but while also remaining somewhat the same.
    To start with the Oklahoma City Thunder offense, the additions of Isaiah Hartenstein and Alex Caruso do wonders for their depth and rotations. To pair them up with any of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, Chet Holmgren, Lu Dort, Jaylin Williams, etc, the versatility they’ll be able to throw at different builds of opponents in 2024 will be much needed. And then there’s a whole different conversation on the OKC Thunder draft picks of 2024 in Nikola Topic, Dillon Jones & Ajay Mitchell.
    But then regarding the Thunder defense, this just jumped to a completely new level. The defensive paly of guards in Cason Wallace & Lu Dort was already phenomenal, but adding Alex Caruso to that is absurd. Then regarding Isaiah Hartenstein, he is nothing short of a two-way monster. Seeing what Hartenstein can do with Chet Holmgren in the frontcourt for Mark Diagneault will be very interesting going forward into the 2024-25 NBA season. And as we await the NBA 2024 summer league, we will get a glimpse at the OKC Thunder rookies as well.

    the most underrated thing is us drafting nikola topic. i understand we have all these signings, but adding a player like him to a guard filled roster makes this pick low risk, high value (relatively in a weak draft class). if he pans out to be 75% of the player he could be, his trade value could be used for even more picks or just kept.

    As for Hartenstein, I see him as either starting or coming off the bench for Chet as the other team's lineups dictate. The coaching staff has demonstrated admirable flexibility in their thinking and in their strategies.

    Or small-ball:

    Today's NBA is about matchups and OKC just added to their flexibility to go big or small or combo of both. Not only that, bringing in another big allows Chet some down time bringing his minutes down per game and over the stretch of an entire season. That adds up to fresher legs down the stretch.

    As a thunder fan , i believe the lineup should be
    Pg: Shai Sg: Caruso Sf: Dort Pf: Jdub C: Chet
    Then off the bench we have
    Hartenstien ,Wallace, Joe, and Wiggins
    I think we will have some trials with our lineups throughout the season but i think hartenstien may actually disrupt the offense a bit at first only because usually shai will only have one defender in the paint even remotely effecting his shot and now with hartenstien being a rim roller he will have 2. But i think with the addition with Hartenstein we will have a lot more three pointers attempted due to offense rebound kick outs so i’m excited for that but initially i think he should be in a bench role playing about 24-28 minutes a night.
    Also Hot take 🔥: I think okc needs one more playmaker off the bench with the loss of micic last year , if we can make the money work , Lonzo ball could have a bounce back year and come to okc in limited minutes !
    Very excited to see this team get to work & i think they’re setup to matchup with boston, hopefully they can get there !

    I think in the regular season, Caruso and Hart are going to help tremendously. And will also help in the playoffs. But if the thunder are truly ready to make or win the finals, then JDub and Chet are going to have to take another step forward offensively to give Shai some help.

  • @joeldriver-sp2rg
    @joeldriver-sp2rg 12 дней назад +1

    Hartenstein and Caruso are going to start so Dort will get moved to the bench. I would imagine both will get around 25 minutes per game and neither one is much of a scorer so you can look for more points from all three of the big dogs SGA, Chet and JDub. I'm looking forward to seeing how everything gels in the first couple of months into the season. We'll all know pretty soon what the potential of this team is. I hate losing Giddey but Hart fixes a huge problem and if Caruso can average around 10 like he did last year that would be perfect.

  • @Mortay2k
    @Mortay2k 13 дней назад

    Based on last season's rotation, I-Hart and Caruso will probably play off the bench. Shai plays the whole 12 minutes in the first, while JDUB, Giddey, Dort, and Chet will sub out. With the new addition of I-Hart and Caruso, they might play with Shai in the first and then Chet and JDub in the first 6 minutes of the second quarter. So basically, Chet and Hartenstein will be playing at 4 and 5, because most of the time, JDub was the ball handler. With that being said, if Chet can't hold back the defense inside, Hartenstein will play a significant role and probably will play at the 4th, same goes with Caruso because Joe is not that consistent during crunch time (It was always JDub, Shai, and Chet who delivers at the end). With this team without any liabilities anymore, I'm hoping that OKC will win the 2025 Championship.

    SGA isn’t a three point threat like he needs to be…he’s a little too mid range oriented
    he’s a bucket tho, but the 3PT threat elevates teams from contender to winner…

      They could go anyway they want. SGA, Caruso, JDUB, Chet, Hart , Dort will all play 28+ min a game. Then they have Joe, Wiggins , Wallace in the reserve unit.
      We probably won't know the starters until Opening night, and it might change as the season goes on. MD will experiment, but we know he will do some thins like play SGA the whole first, and sit JDUB at some point in the first, and bring him back with the second unit. Chet will likely play 60% of his minutes at Center, and 40% at PF. Meaning one of Chet/IHart will be on the court at all times.
