They get less rest than their opponents do more than any other team in the league and also get to face the least amount of teams that are on the 2nd night of a b2b...
Pair this with the fact that they'll have one of the toughest SOS anyways and man....

Re: OKC got screwed on the new NBA schedule
Just looking at this, Washington got off pretty good... being in the East with Paul Pierce now, they could win 50 games this year.

Yeah I know, it just sucks when your team is on the losing end of that

Re: OKC got screwed on the new NBA schedule
I mean, OKC only has 10 opponents who played a game the night before.
Compare that to Washington who has 25 opponents next season who are on the second night of a back to back...
That's a massive difference. And then you factor in the fact that OKC is the lowest in the league in regards to getting more rest than their opponents before a matchup and DAMN lol.
The main reason I'm worried is because all Thunder fans know that Brooks can and will overwork the shit out of his star players. Having a schedule like this would only make matters worse for that type of behavior.

Re: OKC got screwed on the new NBA schedule
So OKC will lose a bunch of games and my wiz will win 50. Then this off season Durant will force a trade

Re: OKC got screwed on the new NBA schedule
Durant's only 25 right? I know he played crazy minutes last season but he's not pushing 30 years old yet. Plus he's not playing FIBA so he should be fine. Westbrook is healthy too so Durant doesn't have to carry the load like last season.
