OKC should do something similar, but just list out all of the draft picks they own over the next 7 years.

Presti said time and time again that they needed to get THIS group to the playoffs and stress test them. Had to do that before you make decisions on the roster.
They’ve done their test, got their data, and now have $35M in cap space + 4 roster spots + 17 firsts to play with.

Dort on Luka, Cason on Kyrie, Dub on PJ.

This thunder team is young and fun!…
And 90% of their home town didn’t get to see them on TV tonight because
@BallySportsOK
1. Is only on one cable provider and, 2. Didn’t even work tonight on their overpriced app.
League needs to step in. Bally has to go.

I’m going to level with you all.
All season I’ve felt like OKC is a fun team punching slightly above their weight. I’ve thought “they aren’t there, but they’re close.”
After this 3 game stretch.. idk. Kinda having a come-to-Jesus moment.
Why can’t this team be in the WCF?

OKC might have folks in hell next year.

After tonight, Lu Dort is scoring 17.4 points a game on 43% from the floor, 34% from 3, and 65% at the rim.
He’s also averaging career highs in rebounds, assists, and FT attempts.
All while guarding the best player on the opposing team.
He’s become incredibly good.

Something I hadn’t really been thinking about:
OKCs starting lineup (Vs Detroit) by draft position:
- 6th
- undrafted
- 49th
- 12th
- 34th
Detroit’s starting lineup:
- 5th
- 7th
- 42nd
- 2nd
- 2nd

OKC is probably 2-1 if PJ Washington just has two “normal” good games, not “career level” good games.
No disrespect to PJ. He’s played awesome.
Thats just the difference in the series so far

I’m ok with OKC not making a trade at the deadline if they cash in a ton of assets to go get Cody in the draft.
Not only is he Dub’s brother, but stylistically he fits OKC so well.

And the Wemby block on Chet was insane.
Let's also not overlook that Chet went 8-12 for 23p, 7r, 5a and cooked him on multiple plays.
But people who didn't watch the game are gonna watch 2 possessions on social media.

OKC can still trade Chris Paul, Steven Adams, and S&T Danilo Gallinari this week.
That’s along with making a draft pick(s) and free agency.

The Thunder have shot more FTs than their opponent less that 25% of the season.
Asked Anthony Edwards what's the key to slowing down OKC: "It’s hard to with the calls that Shai gets. It’s hard to shut them down. You can’t touch him any time of the game. It’s super hard to beat. That team is a good team, especially when they’re getting calls like that."

Pre-playoffs we said “once Wiggs gets seen nationally, folks are gonna talk about him being a piece a team needs to get to complete their core.”
Dude rocks. He deserves his flowers.
Aaron Wiggins is awesome in his role. In 15 MPG, he averaged 6 PPG on 66.4 TS%, 15.2% of the passes he threw were assists (trails only LeBron), excellent & versatile defensive playmaker, strong positional rebounder. 6’5 w 6’11 wingspan.
Does everything you want from a role wing!

I’ve never seen a city fall in love with a team like OKC did with the Thunder in those years.
Back then it was Harden beards.
Now it’s barking.
The love affair starts again.
God DAMN im ready
Idk man, this really feels like the birth of a new era in OKC basketball.
The PG/Russ years were fine but they were an older team and a different vibe.
This just feels like 2010-2013 all over again.
The energy, vibe, youth.. this playoff run is going to be special

Just realizing this:
OKC traded the Knicks 5 2nd rounders for pick 26.
The next day they traded the Knicks pick 40 and cash for pick 38.
4 days later they signed the Knicks starting Center.

Gafford and Tyus Jones? Based on a 10 game sample? After the guy have you 30-9-10 in a play-in game 6 months ago?
Or if Claxton pending UDFA is a problem. Just try to flip him for a couple of solid role players like Dan Gafford + Tyus Jones
He still has potential but he just doesnt fit in OKC

OKC is trotting out rookies (and they statistically don’t help winning), G League guys, and dudes still on rookie scale deals and are competitive and winning.

Presti Hs basically came out and said that if PG stayed they had one more year before they looked for a trade.
He then traded 1 year of prime PG for:
- almost a guaranteed 8-9 years of SGA
- Danilo Gallinari
- 5 first round picks
- 2 first round pick swaps
