    Default Predict OKC's record without KD and Westbrook

    Lets go with best case scenario: Durant returns early December. We'll just go with 1. How will they fare without their two superstars? Is there enough time left to make a run for the playoffs, let alone home court? Don't forget you'll need a win or 50 to make it to the PO's out West.

    Schedule:
    Nov 1: vs. Denver
    Nov 3: @Brooklyn
    Nov 4: @Toronto
    Nov 7: vs. Memphis
    Nov 9: vs. Sacramento
    Nov 11: @Milwaukee
    Nov 12: @Boston
    Nov 14: vs. Detroit
    Nov 16: vs. Houston
    Nov 18: @Utah
    Nov 19: @Denver
    Nov 21: vs. Brooklyn
    Nov 23: vs. Golden State
    Nov 26: vs. Utah
    Nov 28: vs. New York

    Depends when Reggie and Lamb are coming back. They can luck out but in general I don't think they can win anyone playing with a Telfair - Jones - Robertson - Ibaka - Adams starting 5.

    There are only 15 games listed through the end of November and they will probably miss closer to 20 combined games.

    I believe their record will be something like 6

    0-fer

    If they still had a certain bearded All Star around, they might be able to tread water. But they threw their title chances out the window because of a cheap owner who scammed one city to move to another and then is too miserly to be willing to pay luxury tax to keep a title contender together.

    People are seriously overrating the Thunder roster. The following won't win many NBA games.

    Sebastian Telfair
    Perry Jones
    Andre Robertson
    Serge Ibaka
    Steven Adams

    Even with Jackson and Lamb back, the roster is still garbage quality. You can't win games without a first option.

    Reggie Jackson
    Jeremy Lamb
    Perry Jones
    Serge Ibaka
    Steven Adams
