I wanna see what else comes in, I feel like Butler is a foregone conclusion at this point, I think we need work around the edges. A defensive guard and another big.

I'm pretty sure they are going to get Valanciunas.

Would love to have him. He’s such a bruiser.

Would you do Nurk, 2 1st for Jonas and Kispert, 2 of our 2nds back?

I'm good with that. I think he'll be better for us than Nurk.

No thanks. I'd leave it at Valanciunas (and honestly it irks me spending a 1st on Valanciunas even if we got a couple seconds back in this scenario).

I feel ok if Jonas and Nick are the C rotation, still think we need a guy like a Melton or someone similar on the perimeter who can pressure ball handlers and handle the ball a bit.

That would be cool but I just don't see it happening. And I'm thinking a power forward type might be more important to add. On the other hand, we might be lucky just to get another center upgrade and Jimmy. If we even get that.

I think Kispert signed an extension so I don’t think he’s trade eligible

If we trade Nurkic will we allow JG to change his avatar? We need to rid ourselves of all nurkic juju.

I’m pretty sure he already did…didn’t he? He only needed to keep it for the off-season. I gotta say I don’t pay much attention to avatars…I’m always on my phone and they barely show up

I'm surprised. I feel like he really learned to love Nurkic.

I'm more worried about his cross court passes than I am him burning out. Him and LeBron just seems built differently when it comes to aging and their game declining.

Uh no.
Nobody has taken the Thunder as serious playoff contenders until maybe last year going into this year.
All the years with Russ everyone knew they were a regular season team. Their roster was weak and they let talent continuously go in the name of picks. They have not been serious about winning and that is part of why KD left to begin with. It started with them shipping off Harden for nothing.
KD apparently wasn't serious about winning because he folded as soon as the Thunder went up 3-1 against the Warriors in the Conference finals.
I don't know what talent they "continuously" let go. It seems like you're just taking the Harden example and extrapolating it across the span of a decade.
Barking up the wrong tree dude. I fucking hate KD and want him gone. I applaud Ish for trying though and not sitting on his hands
I applaud the old lady for trying and not sitting on her hands when that spider was wriggling and jiggling and tickling inside her. She understood that she had to do something, hence the bird. It’s the kind of wisdom that comes with age.
