Is "The Team Unites" the worst debut episode ever?

"The Team Unites" is probably the worst debut episode in the shows history. It feels like a second or third episode. It poorly sets up the premise of the show and starts you in cold. Wild Force and RPM but started with the teams already being active. But they we're still written as first episodes that introduced us the universe. The "Team Unites" just throws us in without bothering to introduce us. We don't know anything about Mike to make us care about him. It really made for a disjointed beginning of the season.

I thought it felt more like a 6 or 7 ep.

Supposedly Tommy Lawson has found proof that they did air Samurai out of order and that the real first episode is yet to come. Sounds pretty silly to air a show out of order. I mean if they did the first episode and aired the fillers out of order, that is one thing. But I guess this is something Nick does.

I think the episode was one of the best season debuts ever.

You are correct only if you ignore the fact it had absolutely nothing that makes a season premiere of a new generation of heroes an actual season premiere and not just another random character focus episode.

Also who the frakk is Tommy Lawson? Where is Tommy Lawson's proof?

Also known as Batzilla. He's similar to BurgandyRanger in that he follows airing schedules and stuff like that. I'll post the link to what he said when I get a chance.
