OKC Thunder: TI editor power ranking week 9: The shuffle is on

Orlando has some statement victories and other than a few occasions have pushed most of the elite teams to the edge prior to succumbing. However, that’s due more to their defense which tends to shine against the top squads.

Their issues as the stats show below lie in the offensive categories where the team struggles to score or to do it efficiently. On night’s when Terrence Ross or Evan Fournier are rolling things are far easier.
