Recently, basketball commentator Wang Meng talked about the Thunder in the program "If You Have the Ball".

When asked whether the Thunder could break the Warriors' 73-win regular season record this season, Wang Meng said: "The Thunder have had a great start this year. You know, they still only lost one game even though Jaylen Williams has been absent so far and Chet has also missed several games due to injury. game, and they still lost to the Trail Blazers. However, even so, I still think they can't break the Warriors' record.

"One of the reasons may be that it has been a long time, and many people no longer have a specific idea of how strong that Warriors team is. That Warriors team is at the top level in the league on both offense and defense. This Thunder team is indeed very good, but you can still see on the offensive end that their shooting ability and star level - especially the key ball scoring ability of the second and third players are not the best in the league. The Warriors have both the strongest offense and the strongest defense in the league. They have Curry, Dream Green, and Klay Thompson in their prime, as well as a group of players who can defend, organize, and shoot. The lineup structure is very complete.

"So, judging from the balance of the Thunder's current lineup, their defense is extremely good, and can even be said to be better than that Warriors; but on the offensive end, in terms of scoring explosiveness, and in terms of 'who can stand up to save the team in critical moments,' I think this Thunder cannot be compared with that Warriors.

" In addition, the competition in the Western Conference this year is too terrifying, too balanced, and too complicated. "
