The Oklahoma City Thunder are on pace to be a top 4 team in the Western Conference, while the Detroit Pistons are on pace to have the highest odds at the lottery. Both rebuilds started at around the same year. However, one team is thriving, and the other is suffering.

This is a tale of two NBA rebuilds

I swear to God, it feels like every single team has a formers spurs assistant like Popovich coaching trees is insane and even crazier that they have a GM tree 😂

"If sports betting was around back then..." There weren't smart phones and it took a couple more steps, but there was betting in 2004.

those first 15 seconds was probably one of the greatest intros from a basketball documentary. The music choice was perfect. GG’s

As a Supersonic myself, the pain in seeing our former team draft 3 hall of fame players in consecutive drafts was crushing. When the Sonics return OKC will have hell to pay.

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

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

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
