Agreed. :wow:

The problem is, OKC isn't a basketball town :manny:

They can't afford to tank, and the ownership group doesn't have the funds to afford an empty arena for the 3-6 years it would take to work a "process" :manny:

That's why they let Russ just statpad his way to MVP last season...they were desperate to keep him by any means necessary because Russ means "fans" in the seats :francis:

They'd be gone in a year, maybe 2 max if they tried to tank. The league might even backdoor force ownership to either move or sell the team the minute they traded Russ :francis:

Truth.....I been saying the same thing. If Paul leaves the league will hook them up with another trade like they did with Paul George and Carmelo.

OKC really just pulled a Nets
They honestly need to just tank and rebuild at this point
Trade Russ and Adams

I agree.. nobody is gonna play with Russ willingly.. just gotta rebuild. Russ my fav player, so this no shade. Kobe went through nobody willingly wanting to play with him. Russ gonna go through it too.


They're still way over the cap, they've got no way to improve the team. If I'm Presti I move Adams and Russ(when I can, he's not eligible to be moved till September), play Melo 40 mins per game next year and blow it up

Do y'all realize that Russ will sell out OKC arena as long as he has that jersey on.

The blow it up cliche on the coli is so tired
Melo is a nice expiring deal.

I only see Miami trading for him tho because they need to get off some horrible contracts( Tyler Johnson, Whiteside,Waiters, etc)

Ingram will be better than PG in about 2-3 years, he just needa put some weight on.

Kuzma will be a better offensive player than him in a couple years as well.

Lakers fans needs pump the brakes clamoring for PG

thecoli... where every draft pick is 2 years away from being a superstar
