The Oklahoma City Thunder have continued their winning(dating back since the title), and have officially surpassed past seasons and so far in this season have started out 7-2. To this date, that is the best record the franchise has had, dating back since the CSL started. When asked GM Andrew for a comment, he had this to say .. "I need a raise".
He does deserve a raise for what he has accomplished in the little time managing the Oklahoma City Thunder. But why are the Thunder clicking so well?
A lot has to do with the team itself. They can defend, rebound, shoot threes and that's what it takes to win in this league. Dating back a few years ago when Magic GM Willy was talking to Andrew, Andrew wanted to surround Stanley with defense and threes. So far, it has worked. Also, the submatrix and depth chart has a lot to do with it also. They have a perfect blend of scoring in the first and second unit.
So while the Thunder are achieving, they still have tough teams to compete with. The Kings are still the Kings and Westbrook will finally be healthy this year. The Sun's are a year older and have added a future star in Donavon Mitchell. The Western Conference is much tougher this year. The East are also tough. The Celtics are growing and have put out a great regular season team. They should have a top seed locked up going into the playoffs. Once the playoffs start, let's see if Dennis can overcome the past demons that have haunted the team. The Chicago Bulls are also overachieving and if the rumors are correct, they could be the favorites very soon. Cavs are still there and the reigning Eastern Conference Champion Miami Heat won't go down easy.
So while it's early in the season, the Thunder GM is proud of how things are going so far. Let's see how it continues...

Re: Best start in OKC History
I’m not surprised, you basically ran it back from last season. Our division is tough but I’m hoping to be on top by the end of the year. We should have beat you, lost by only 3, but I’m still learning who can play where. I feel confident we’ll win our next matchup, provided health and all that

This team will be good once again, as long as you guys stay healthy, then I can see another deep playoff run once again. A repeat is certainly possible!
