Odds-On

They are already the odds-on favorite to win the title this year. And they're the youngest team in the Association. It's frightening. Balls and Galls, lotta ifs in this sentence, but: If OKC wins the title this season, if they can keep their roster ~intact, which will require paying this extraordinary group (and I don't know where they are in the cap, I assume under since 1) their group is the youngest 2) they're in the, or one of, the smallest markets), if they can avoid a plane crash of injuries, then as long as they have this group I don't see how they will be dethroned. On a top-to-bottom great organization and this wealth of talent they remind me of Manchester City Revolution. City won five straight EPL championships before this season. Oklahoma City could win the NBA five straight times.
