Well, same deal. It's not like Toronto is going anywhere.
Read it again, bruh.

They probably won't, though they look decent enough to get the #14.
Harden is a good player. He's just not a franchise player. He hoodwinked the refs into a ton of FTAs like you know who in Suf Beach.
Yep, the Toronto piece was Houston's best asset. It's obvious OKC wasn't going to pay Harden, so at least they got Martin to fill the void this year, a player with all-star upside in Lamb, and a guaranteed lottery pick. Beats the out of letting him walk.
They picked 8th last draft. Don't see it being much different next season.
Lowry will make them much better alone, and Jonas Valanciunas could be big time.
The thing with that pick is that they would really need to tank to get the top 3 and save it. So that pick is as good as gone. I like what Presti did there.
If this is any indication of your quality as a poster on this site, stop posting altogether. Your basketball takes are horrible if so. You're pretty stupid if you think we won't finish as either the number one or two seed.
Not something to worry about in the short term. Keep thinking of hypotheticals that have the Thunder going downwards from here, if it makes you sleep better at night.Oh and while you have an expiring contract it's debatable if OKC or SA is a less attractive FA destination.
Another example of someone who wants money instead of a championship.
I don't buy the hoodwinked schtick. I don't think what is oh so obvious to fans is lost to men who officiate professionally. There are only a dozen franchise players in the league so it's a misnomer term in regards to his market value.Harden is a good player. He's just not a franchise player.

Is he one of the top 40 players? Undoubtedly. Top 25? Yup. So he's not the top 10 but there are more than 30 teams and you have to pay someone to get talent on the court. You just have a franchise that can in a box and get elite players.
Sentiment is Josh Smith is next
They play in the Eastern Conference. It comes down to whether or not Bargnani can stay healthy.
It's a double-edged sword. They're bad enough where they probably can't avoid picking over #14, but they play in the east where cleveland, charlotte, etc, are worse than them, so they probably won't pick top 3.
Durant has this to say
You keep thinking that Martin and Lamb is anything but a severe downgrade from Harden. Presti made this move because he had to, not because he wanted to.

Right of the bat you have San Antonio and LA. You are going to compete with Denver, Clips, Dallas and Houston for the scraps. Have fun.
You talking bout Stern's refs? You screwed up an otherwise good post with det statement, tbh. We all see it. Harden is not as good as his FTAs make him appear.
Harden should have signed the $52M deal. Now him and OKC won't see the Finals until Howard retires.
He's in shock over the fact that he'll never get to shoot the ball this coming season.

Harden = Joe Johnson 2.0, tbh
Yeah i am talking about NBA officiating. You really think that Durant and Harden trick the refs into making calls for them? Either way it gets them to the line so in essence what you are saying is equivalent to saying that Dwight Howard isn't as good as his rebounds make him look. It is what it is and it will continue to be what it is.You talking bout Stern's refs? You screwed up an otherwise good post with det statement, tbh. We all see it.

trade for Rockets.
So what? Dirk was erroneously considered a soft choker for years because of two bad series. Harden is a baller. Ibaka is so overrated. He's a good shot-blocker and that's about it. Not even a very good one-on-one defender.
Morey would actually deserve a little praise if he pulls that one off.Sentiment is Josh Smith is next
