Can the OKC Thunder Beat 73–9? | Adam Silver Acknowledges NBA Fans Want More Defense In The NBA

Welcome to "Shook-Ow… At The Buzzer" with me your host, E! The OKC Thunder are on a historic pace in the 2025–26 NBA season, and the question is real: can they chase down the NBA single-season wins record set by the 2015-2016 Golden State Warriors who went 73-9 record? With a stunning 24–2 start (after losing to the Spurs last night?, elite defense, and MVP-level dominance from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (X:@shaiglalex), this Thunder team looks built for history. But chasing records isn’t easy. Health, motivation, rest, and playoff priorities could decide whether OKC pushes all-in or protects the bigger goal—repeat as NBA championship. I have a clip from “No Dunks” they weigh in on this topic. Plus, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver (IG:@adamsilvernba) is signaling it could be a shift in the league. Fans want tougher, more physical defense again. The NBA wants to respond by cracking down on flopping, soft fouls, and unbalanced officiating while keeping skill and scoring intact. I have a clip from locked ”Road Trippin Show” where Kendrick Perkins (X:@KendrickPerkins) and Richard Jefferson (IG:richardajefferson) talk about this possible change. I’ll give my reaction to both topics as well. All that is next right here, on "Shook-Ow...At The Buzzer".
