I hear you, and of course, think Presti would have to do his due diligence. But, players don't have to be saints—or even good teammates—to have success. There's a ton of examples in NBA history....
I'll also note that the players that KD had the biggest problems with have been Draymond Green, and Kyrie Irving, and James Harden. Not exactly three great teammates.
I listen to every episode and they haven't ever claimed to have any sources on the topic. Maybe some general speculation, but that's it.
Kevin Durant is a top 25 player in NBA history. We barely heard a negative word about KD in the next first 8 years he was with the team. He's the best player to wear a Thunder uniform. While there's...
Regarding KD, I think people are underestimating what it takes to win a title. This team as constructed is unlikely to win one. Adding talent in OKC is very hard. If you have a chance to add a top 25...
I'm not even sure where to start with the inaccuracies and assumptions in your post, but saying Indigenous nations didn't have "continuity and cultural exchange" is a good place to start. Suggesting...
100% to Cason moving to the starting lineup for Giddey. I think it would be good for both of them. But, I'm also okay with Giddey's minutes being down in favor of Cason, Wiggins, and Joe. I just...
I’m not disagreeing with any of that, but just pointing out that it has to be done in partnership with tribal nations. That’s why I’m not questioning which restaurant options the Chickasaw Nation has...
Who is the "we" here? I trust that Indigenous peoples and nations—the Chickasaw Nation in this case—will make decisions about how/when/under what conditions they open restaurants that focus on...
Where are you seeing these prices? I already have OKC tickets. I need Dallas and the cheapest I’m seeing is $180, with fees that’ll be about $200 per ticket.
If prices are within range, I'm hoping to make game 2 in OKC and game 3 in Dallas. Pretty excited for this series!
To me, "balancing the skyline" is such a weird thing to prioritize. I think the "proper" height is whatever creates a more vibrant, walkable neighborhood. If we're talking about dreams, I'd love to...
Yes, PG re-signed with OKC, thus playing for 2 seasons. And then he asked for a trade. OKC traded him to the Clippers. I don't understand saying he didn't ask for a trade. He did. Obviously it worked...

Who are you listening to? I haven’t heard any of this talk. OKC isn’t getting a big free agent. They’re definitely not offering Russ, even on the minimum. Most money will go to re-signing our...
Not sure why people are saying the Pelicans played their best when they shot way below their norms. I think they hit something like 1/15 of their corner threes.
I think OKC wins this series going...
Keon Ellis has done a tremendous job filling in for those two though.
For road games, I know Down to Dunk is organizing watch parties. They should announce the location soon.
Absolutely insane that this team is the #1 seed at their age. The playoffs will be a huge test, including the 1st round, but it's already a pretty crazy accomplishment. OKC is so spoiled.
The Thunder are going to beat the Mavs so the 1 seed will come down to Suns-Wolves and Nuggets-Memphis. The Nuggets may decide that they'd rather play OKC in round 2 and tank against Memphis, thus...
I would say the "perfect" fit is Nikola Jokic or Giannis. ;)
There is a zero percent chance of Draymond ever wearing a Thunder jersey. Even if he fit on the court, he has the potential to destroy...
I don't even consider any team on this list in even the same tier as Denver. There's nothing I've seen that indicates they're any worse than last season. They may be better without Jeff Green,...
We absolutely want to avoid Denver at all costs. They're the favorites to win the title. While I don't mind OKC facing a tough team and proving it, here's the teams I'd most want to play if the goal...
Can you explain more?
People who are mocking OKC based on this announcement are doing so because they already held those beliefs about OKC. The reality is the super tall only makes sense for 2-3 US cities. I don’t think...
