Who would’ve thought a bunch of 20 year olds and a rookie would be this impactful this early on. They don’t make many mistakes that your typical younger players make, especially in close games. It’s crazy Sam Presti has 37 picks in the next 7 years, and their core already looks close to set.

Should OKC even make a trade at this point, or should they just continue to develop what they have? Their only weakness seems to be rebounding.

      People are being dumb and overreacting to a few bad shooting games/falling into the same “there’s only one basketball, he doesn’t fit, trade him” trap they always do when a team has more than two guys who like the ball in their hands. like incredibly skilled and productive 6’9 point guards with good team chemistry just grow on trees

        Name me one elite player in the NBA who isn’t a good defender, doesn’t get to the rim/line at will, and can’t shoot

        Just one.
