#84: Just That Good

Brent — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 12:48:46 +0000

In a special editorial, Brent asks the question of why the Thunder are looking so dominant right now. Have the Thunder improved that much, or are we being fooled by an easy stretch of schedule? How have they gotten so much better with the same basic roster as last year?

#83: Westbrook Aboard

Brent — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 12:04:27 +0000

Brent and Blayne break down the 5-year contract extension signed by Russell Westbrook on January 19th. Was it a good deal for the Thunder and for Russell? What does it mean for James Harden and Serge Ibaka? Finally, we ask the question whether it is better for the Thunder to think of themselves as the best team or keep the mindset of an underdog.

#82: The Loss of Eric Maynor

Brent — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 12:49:06 +0000

The Thunder start this condensed season 8-2, but have lost Eric Maynor to injury for the rest of the season. Now the rookie Reggie Jackson steps up to fill his role, but does he have the poise to lead the second unit of a playoff team? What moves do the Thunder need to make to compensate? Plus, find out if James Harden should start instead of Thabo Sefolosha.

#81: The Lockout Still Stinks

Brent — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 14:01:25 +0000

Season Four kicks off dramatically with a 4-0 start and the most impressive and memorable buzzer beating three-pointer in Thunder history. However, we’re not ready to write the lockout into the history books just yet. Your hosts let the owners and players know what they really think. And one of your hosts tries to leave the ThunderCast for good.

#62: Is It Tinker Time?

Michael — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 07:01:30 +0000

Michael and Blayne do NOT talk about a Jeff Green trade or the Thunder’s need for a big man. We do, however, discuss two possible changes to the Thunder’s starting lineup.

#54: So-So Sefolosha?

Brent — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 12:52:29 +0000

Thabo Sefolosha ranks fourth in minutes per game behind Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and Jeff Green. He played in all 82 games last year and has started all 26 thus far in 2010. He has become an indispensable ingredient in the Thunder’s success and one of the most beloved players. Known for his superior defense, Thabo’s offensive contributions are often overlooked. His offense seems to be improving, but do statistics support this notion?

Also in this episode, we wonder if fast-paced basketball is becoming the Thunder’s style?

#50: Tabasco

Brent — Fri, 19 Nov 2010 13:36:23 +0000
