A Tale of Two NBA Rebuilds

Okc foreal had some real away fans in that mavs series in 2012.

Your videos are the best. The combination of nostalgia along with how well you explain how past effects the present and future has me reeled in and hooked ! I love this channel and have been binging your videos for weeks now. Keep up the good work ❤

as for ukrainian, that background siren is distructive af

I was so pissed about that whack ass Blake Griffin trade

Great stuff 😢🤯

Bro a "celtics rise to fame" for about 2 hours would be such a beautiful vide

this is a masterpiece

john wall disrespect will not be tolerated

This, to me, is the sequel to Secret Base's collapse videos on the Pistons and Thunder

im telling yall sengun will beat the thunder and it will be another rebuild for the thunder. Sengun gonna carry Houston and then beat OKC sending them on another Rebuild

i love OKC.

Magic get baby lebron in paolo yet somehow the pistons won the draft lol...ok...

Seeing the Thunder and Timberwolves (my team) turn around and get to where they are today is absolutely amazing as a Minnesotan it sucks that there both in the western conference but I’ll always root for my Timberwolves first and then them because Chet Holmgren is from here with that said I really hope Detroit can turn that ship around and get better cause I know the pain of being a fan of a team that sucks cough cough Vikings 😂

Jeff Green's reaction to being traded on draft day is amazing. "I've been traded, day one, to play with this guy". He was honored to play with KD

I think doing a long format video like this weaving the two rebuilds together is tricky given the lack of excitement from Detroit over the last ~13 years, just wanna get that out first. It’s by no means a bad video and I always appreciate your content but I feel like it was incredibly Thunder heavy.

I was 9 years old when the Sonics left. I have never spent money on Starbucks as an adult and I never will. Fuck Howard Schultz, he illegally sold the team and I wish we would’ve dumped the viaduct debris on his fucking lawn.

Some franchises have been rebuilding for 20 to 30 years now 😂. Any day now the rebuild will be done 😅.

Great content here! Thanks for making this!

It’s crazy to select kd, Russ, and harden consecutively all to not win a ring

Good work on the video

Came back after the Pistons ending up with the #5 overall pick

If you time traveled to someone in 2012 after the finals and told them that in 2024 the OKC thunder not only are still looking to make their first finals since let alone win their first championship they would not believe you

A little correcto, Billy Donovan did not get fired. His contract expired and did not want to accept the extension that OKC offered him

First time seeing your videos. Great storytelling

My mental health this year as a Pistons fans this last decade + has suffered severely. I am not I will ever be the same again.

Solid okc fan here since moving seattle to okc in 2008..

The fans in Seattle didn’t do all they could to keep the team, they did some chants when it was too late. Lol the team was losing millions each year Schultz owned it.

Jeff green still one of my fave thunder players.

what in the overeditted hell is with all the alarm and crash noises in the first 2 minutes of this video lol

Bro you are mad talented fr. I respect the amount of time you put into this vid beats a lot of basketball documentaries out there. Great stuff man appreciate the content you make.

Totally different rebuilds one started with all stars one started with buy-outs

I have never seen the series that killed my favorite team in history, kd Westbrook up 3 - 1 I'll never forgive Steph and Klay for that.

The pistons was just signing mid face players to get ticket sales had to be

As a Long time Thunder Fan. well as long as they have been here. There's a lot of old memories I have tied to story.

Three : free, Thunder : Funder. Lol

Pistons never had the assets to begin with. No ability to flip ANY player they’ve had over the past 10 years like okc has (and it still took them a decade to be relevant again competitively). Objectively

As a Thunder fan that’s been through both, this video was so well done. Brought back great memories, great frustrations but really showed how great Presti is and how quick we got back into the discussion with one of the brightest futures I’ve ever seen.. to have 11 QUALITY players that can play and not kill the team is crazy and one of the best players in the organization still hasn’t cracked the lineup yet. With one potential lottery pick this season (3total) and another 3 next year while having cap because ALL our players are so young is truly amazing. Thank you for the blast from the past and the look into the future

Ÿou make the best basketball videos 🎉

Long story short the Clippers trading for Paul George is the worst trade in NBA history.

And now OKC is the 1st seed in the West trying to make a WCF appearance

Nah sum wrong wit draymond 🤣

Great doc keep em coming

ironically Sam Presti never won GM/Executive of the year

How do you make an hour and a half long documentary about a thunder rebuild and not even mention how Dort got on the team or the pivotal Covid year where he guarded prime Harden all 7 games in the playoffs. Yet he spent 10 minutes on Reggie Jackson. Lmao wtf did I watch

One used Amazon, and the other used whish and temu

Listening to all these people talk shit on OKC in hindsight is honestly hilarious.

42 minutes in and I guarantee I finish this. Good doc

The Sonic fans didn't do all they could for the team... Otherwise the team wouldn't have had to be sold.

Good topic!
