I look at the Thunder: Is this defensive system the answer to the modern NBA?

Speaking of the NBA's Thunder this season, I really have to have a good chat. Who would have thought that such a young team could reach the league's first in the regular season defensive efficiency? ! Although they were not playing against the Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs, their defense made people stunned when they faced the Grizzlies.

Their defense is not the kind that depends on physical strength, but on speed, rotation, and assisted defense. Forcing you to dribble more and pass more is to make you uncomfortable! The speed and accuracy of that person's gaze and assisting in the replacement are sometimes like there is one more person on the field.
Dolt and Caruso, the two outside "mad dog" locks, are simply nightmares for the opponent's point guard, and they are full of oppressiveness. Harten (Haltenstein) and Chet (Homgren) are also very important in it. They can protect the frame and prevent delays after pick-and-roll. The defensive end is too comprehensive.
And, their good defense can really be converted into scores! The counterattack after the steal is too fast. Judging from the data, the steal score and fast break score are both the top in the league! What is this called? Defence drives offense! Rhythm swipe.
Of course, young people also have their worries. If you play against the Nuggets G1, you will suffer. In the end, the key goal is handled. Experience is indeed a tuition fee. But the talent and system of this team are really high.
SGA (Alexander) is still the core thigh, and the explosive power of scoring is needless to say, but he feels that he will take everyone more and more to play. Not only does he work alone, but his passing has also improved significantly, and he is becoming more and more like a real leader.
By the way, I also saw Morant and Pippen II saying "see through" the Thunder on the Grizzlies? Can it be seen through? This team with changing tactics, especially on the defensive end, Amorim (coach) can really play in different ways. I don't think it's that simple.
This thunder, talent is here and the system is also developed. How far they can go depends on how fast these young people grow in the playoffs. What do you think?
