This isn't exactly what the folks in Oklahoma City had in mind.

It turns out the Thunder's win over the Timberwolves on Nov. 2 -- a thriller before their brand-new, overjoyed fans -- was not a sign of things to come.

Now, as the Thunder struggle through the subsequent 79 games, they're giving NBA fans from coast to coast -- from L.A. to Boston, from Miami to Seattle -- reason to wonder: Just how bad are they?

As bad as the 1972-73 Philadelphia 76ers, who finished 9-73, setting the standard for team wretchedness in the NBA?

Who knows, perhaps Clay Bennett's young squad has what it takes to replace the Sixers as the worst team ever.

Come back day by day and see where the Thunder rank among the all-time awful clubs.
