6 consecutive wins at the start! Alexander 31+7, the substitute contributed double 20, the Thunder lost the suspense of the championship

The Thunder defeated the Wizards 127-108 and have now won 6 consecutive games. I have to say that the league is coming to an end. As the defending champion, the Thunder do not seem to have any sense of stagnation this season. They are rushing towards the championship again. And the Thunder are completely different from the Nuggets and Celtics. In 2023, the Nuggets made it all the way to the finals and won the championship. Everyone thought they would win consecutive championships in the second year, but in fact their status quickly declined. Including the Green Army's victory in 24 years, it was a failure, but at the beginning of the second year we knew that the state was declining.

But the Thunder became stronger the more they won the championship. In the 6 games, no matter whether the opponent was a weak team or a strong team, the Thunder collected all the bills. Doesn’t this mean that the Thunder are number one in the league in terms of stability? It will not overturn against weak teams, but it will be suppressive against strong teams. The Thunder are all young people. They are much younger than the Nuggets and Celtics when they won the championship. Alexander is in his prime, as are Harten and Dort. Chet and Jiewei are also in their fourth year, both under 25 years old. Including starter Wallace is only 22 years old. The substitutes are full of strong players. Mitchell, Joe, and Jarin Way are all strong players, as well as Caruso.

This game against the Wizards was really a crushing game. The Thunder's main force was average at the beginning and was relatively slow to warm up. Especially Alexander was taking his time and not taking his opponent seriously. But the substitutes were full of firepower. Joe and Mitchell fired. The Thunder still led 28-20 in the first quarter. In the second quarter, the Wizards found their offensive feeling first. Sarr and Coulibaly fired. McCollum continued, and the Wizards counterattacked wildly. However, the Thunder still relied on more fire to suppress, and they opened up by 10 points at halftime.

In the second half, Alexander lost face. He scored consecutively to finish the game. The two sides exchanged blows. The Thunder directly stretched the game to more than 20 points, and the game completely lost suspense. Alexander easily scored 31 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists in the whole game. He has now reached the peak of scoring. For him, 30 points are average. Harten, inside, scored 17 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists. With Cutt taking a rest, Harten is still stable in the Thunder interior. In addition, Joe scored 20 points on the bench, Mitchell scored 20 points, and the two substitutes had double 20s. The Thunder were ridiculously strong.

For the Wizards, McCollum scored 19 points, Sarr had 14 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks, Coulibaly had 16 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks, and White Devils Whitmore had 7 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist. The Wizards started this year with another 1 win and 4 losses. It seems that the goals for the new season are still bad. If they don't draw a cornerstone to build the team, the Wizards may continue to do so. After all, Sal, who was ranked second in 2024, was too mediocre. He was just a poor version of Wenban Yama, but he entered the second position in his junior year and was far away from the cornerstone.

We really don’t know how to beat the Thunder now. They are more terrifying than the Warriors back then. Warriors are at least at their peak for a few years, and it will pass after a while. The Thunder are too young to be so successful at such a young age. Then in the future, there may not be many teams in the East and West that can cross this mountain. The Spurs may currently be a threat to the Thunder. They have won five consecutive games in the beginning. Bunyama, Harper and Castle have become the new troika.

In addition, the Spurs also have defender Fox. In terms of overall talent and veterans, the Spurs are also the only team with a configuration close to that of the Thunder. If anyone can challenge the kingship, I think there is no other team except the Spurs. The Nuggets competed with the Thunder in seven games last season, which was the limit, but they didn't get past it. The so-called miss was a thousand miles away. The Thunder and Nuggets seemed to be in a tiebreaker, but the Thunder still had stronger dominance. The most important thing is that the Pacers who can compete with the Thunder are finished. I can’t imagine how many championships the Thunder can win in the next 10 years. This is the rise of a super giant.
