Rylan Stiles dives into what the Oklahoma City Thunder should learn from the Denver Nuggets winning the 2022-23 NBA Finals. The Nuggets showed the OKC Thunder that they need patience, things will pop up in the rebuild, mistakes are going to be made, and progression is not linear. Plus, The Thunder own the 12th overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, should OKC use it on a possible Tre Mann replacement in Keyonte George? Is the Baylor product good enough to warrant an NBA Draft Lottery pick? What better value is on the board for Sam Presti and company?
