It makes very logical sense that the Thunder would take a step back this season. Holding that defensive rating, among the best all time, for multiple years is really difficult and taxing. They have three deep playoff runs in a row. They have changed the identity of the team more towards offense (while obviously retaining great defensive players). They might be healthier with their injured guys from last season and have different injuries this year. And then you watch them in preseason and they are just killing everyone on every possession with every lineup combo and rotation piece and it's just like "Yeah, they're just going to win 60 again." The organizational strength of that team is just absurd.
