So it's
PG: Russ
SG: Harden
SF: ??
PF: ??
C: Capela
bench Gordon, Tucker, Green, House, Shumpert

they don't have a starting line up :ohhh: and that bench straight trash :hhh:

I doubt they can even make the playoffs in the west, let alone win a first round.

Didn't one of the owners off himself? Drive into a tree or something?
Yeah, that was Aubrey McClendon. Killed himself after being indicted to shield his fortune and make sure it ended up in the hands of his family (rather than seized to make restitution payments).

There was a huge crash in oil/natural gas prices around the time that Harden was traded (on top of ongoing aftershocks from the financial crisis).

Most of the ownership group is either in banking or the oil/gas business. Wouldn't be surprised if they were under serious financial pressure at the time and just couldn't stomach burning cash via the luxury tax.

Ultimately, it cost them at least one championship. Likely multiple. Short-term thinking...:francis:
