Here is SGA as the Thunder will be heading to Vegas.
00:07
Yes, the NBA Cup games have had a little bit of a different feel tonight, felt like there
00:16
was a little, a little more like at stake.
00:18
Now, with that said, we if it wasn't a cup game tonight, we would have definitely came
00:22
up with the same sense of urgency and intensity.
00:26
The court might have looked a little bit different, but we would have still tried to win the game.
00:32
At the end of the night, we were all like competitors and we really, really want to
00:38
win.
00:39
And that's first and foremost, and to get that done is above all.
00:45
You know, one of the things I want to preface here about this club is that they literally
00:52
might own more number ones and number two picks than anyone in the NBA.
00:57
They are absolutely, you know, grandma's cupboards are full.
01:01
They have more picks than anybody anywhere.
01:05
I mean, fantastic picks.
01:08
And they're already perhaps the best team in the Western Conference.
01:12
You could argue it instantaneously.
01:15
And then they can maneuver.
01:18
They can draft.
01:19
They could trade.
01:21
They can do any number of options to continue with this window being open of their ascent
01:30
to greatness.
01:32
This is a team that reminds me of the Bulls.
01:37
They are on the precipice of greatness.
01:41
They're going to win a title.
01:43
It's coming.
01:44
Presti's done an incredible job stockpiling.
01:48
They have it all.
01:49
They're already destroying teams.
01:52
You heard this guy right out of his mouth.
01:54
He said, we are very competitive.
01:56
We want to win every night.
01:57
And when you have that going for you and that youth, every guy on the team is under 25 years
02:02
old.
02:03
They are dangerous.
02:05
They are the most dangerous team in the NBA right now.
02:07
They have to be a finalist in the NBA playoffs.
02:10
They have to be.
02:11
It's got to happen.
02:12
If it's not this year, it's next year.
02:14
And I'm sick of waiting.
02:15
It's got to be now.
02:16
It's now or never.
02:17
I think they have it all right now.
