OKC Thunder : Where the Buffalo Ball Podcast
Tonight, the OKC Thunder move to 3-4 leaving them loss-less since our last episode. The “Where the Buffalo Ball” podcast gives you their takes on the team’s first win streak and examines what to do to keep it going.
Finally, the OKC Thunder are riding high with some cautiously optimistic good vibes. After a terrible 0-4 start to the season, the Thunder have won three straight. It cannot be overstated how crucial it is for OKC to right the ship ASAP, and so far it appears they are starting to correct course.
As for today’s show we delve into how changes to rules and officiating focus may have contributed to the OKC Thunder’s early season struggles. Specifically, we explore how officiating has taken a harder stance on physical play off the ball, and how the shorter shot clock is also forcing the Thunder to adjust.
