They got a bunch of chances to get one good player, NBA draft ain't like the NFL draft, there ain't a bunch of studs waiting to enter the league


That's 317 picks a billion ways to flip it pyour bugging OKC can draft and swap to a dynasty,and we are talking about OKC there draft record is impeccable


They drafted 3 MVPs Eric bledsoe, Reggie Jackson all within a decade

OKC ain't the Knicks when it comes to drafting great talent
 
The fuck are you talking about man?

What don't you understand?

Kawhi has now left almost $100 million in guaranteed money on the table (Spurs/ Raptors) in hopes that in two years he can get 10+ year max in 2021.

What if his nagging injuries come back? What if the Clippers can't get past the Lebron Lakers All-Star Avengers squad?

You think Lebron isn't going to be supermotivated to beat Kawhi?

Leaving the Raptors is more of a risk for Kawhi then some people think.

Why do you think Kawhi was trying to convince Kevin Durant to come play with him before he went to the Nets?

Presti will get props from talking heads for putting OKC in a position to recover from losing all their stars but the fact is HE is the gm who keeps losing all his stars. All the picks look good on paper but you still have to draft right and you still gotta make sure your franchise will be a great destination for free agents. OKC is not that. Look at Ainge in Boston. All those assets and still they have to settle for leftovers. At the end of the day, Presti failed OKC fans and it is very unlikely OKC can strike gold again with accumulating talent like they once had with a young KD, Russ, Harden, and Ibaka. No way in hell Presti and OKC avoids that 30 for 30 documentary.

So you tossing in a lot of what ifs... ok so

What if Bron gets hurt

What if AD inevitably gets hurt like he does

You dont think Kawhi won't be motivated to beat Bron... again

You think don't PG can help spread the load offensively and defensively

What if Vogel can't do shit with this team

I think Kawhi was doing what's best for him and he went after another superstar like everyone else to help him while he helps them
 
Draft picks are also a shot in the dark...all them picks and niggas may end up drafting nothing Kwame Brown and Olowandis...all we know is OKC gonna suck so bad in the foreseeable future the team will have to move

This has been said a million time over the owner didn't want to give harden the 4 mil extra. So presti had to trade him because of the owner
