Mamba mentality

All it took was the rumor that he had interest in Patrick Williams and the Bulls FO threw 90 mil at the guy.

I mean if Presti is interested in our RFA we have to pay him!

We need to resurrect Stern from the dead just so he can block every Thunder trade for “basketball reasons.”

If Sam Presti calls about your player, start giving them more minutes as a focal point of your offence.

Sam Presti said yes… ask for 2 more FRP’s or no deal.

It wasn’t the OKC starters that blew the game open. They destroyed us with SGA on the bench when Joe and McCain hit every three they took.

Daryl Morey is a Presti sleeper agent 

Teams need to stop trading with the Thunder. They would be able to revive even Anthony Bennett’s and James Wiseman’s careers if they got the chance.

To be fair they gave up quite a bit. Most teams wouldn’t have paid that price for him.

They will as long as moronic GMs exist

Heard he’s also a liar from an anonymous source.

We’re getting another great player with the Rockets pick that Morey will give up on way too soon. Don’t worry

Even if he wanted to trade him to save money, he could’ve traded him to any other team.

The Thunder is the last team that needed a player like McCain

Gotta be one of the worst GMs in the sport.

Most overrated GM of the modern era

The defending champs want your young prospect which means he obviously isn’t good anymore

It cannot be said enough times.

Imagine being so braondead you give the defending champs who have been battling injuries a very competent depth piece.

All while your team is in injury hell and badly needs depth.

Always has been

He could be at least a great bench production for 76ers, but Morey didn’t like what he saw when McCain is recovering from rust.

Nothing like a bump of Jocaine.

Both of em Philly donations to the state of Oklahoma

Went to high school with my man

GO GRIZZLYS 🐻

That was wild, Bridges was so excited to go to Philly

Daigneault ran a lineup with all three of those guys plus Chet and IHart for real minutes today.

Was a fun watch.

I get the diss of Wiggins based on this season’s bodywork but it’s very obvious that his shoulder is still not right. Last few years versus this year is very noticeable.

That shoulder patch he continues to wear is a big sign.

Thankfully we’re deep enough to not force him getting extra playing time than needed, but remember this comment lol, once he’s fully healed he’ll look much, much better.

These three are also ridiculously cheap on long contracts. People wondered how we will be able to compete with three players on a Max…they’re the solution. Such a blessing.

Lakers are the only matchup where that much perimeter defense is needed/beneficial

Cason is still playable, Dort should honestly not even get 15 mins on this team fully healthy he is that detrimental to the team this season

At least you guys can put your claim in for Presti’s success with him being a Spurs alumnus.

Josh Harris needs to sell the team to someone that isn’t in the Epstein files.

It pains me to say it, but they are the cowboys of the nba

Isnt nick nurse the coach?

i do. We cut Joe for an empty roster spot dude. We wanted an empty roster spot for 30 games and then the corpse of Dewayne Dedmon instead of Joe. His “keep a roster spot open at all times” shit is getting so old. He made the same excuse for mccain. F L E X I B I L I T Y

at some point you pull rank and say play this dude. Glenn wasnt sticking around long anyway and we all knew it

Save money for his billionaire owner.

Its better than jmac lol it has some meaning behind it

Yes OKC is the Js team, JWill, JDub and now Jmac

Do you mean like picking OKC to beat the field, or OKC over any other single team? They’ve been ahead of every team all season in both record and net rating.

I would take an awesome shooter off the bench every day of the week for a pick in the 20s. Meanwhile the 76ers are playing Cam Payne 20 minutes a night. McCain is on a rookie deal for two more years. There was absolutely zero need to trade him now.

it’s because people hate the sixers and will find any reason to make fun of us

He’s exactly who he was in Philly: a streaky shooter and terrible defender who can come off the bench and sometimes help you.

His point totals for the last seven games are 15, 3, 13, 9, 5, 20, 11.

You are missing context of being a good bench player while on a rookie contract with room to improve.

Do you somehow think McCain has peaked when he’s 22yo and has played less than a full season of NBA basketball in total? Guy lost his first season to injury while on pace to be ROTY and then struggled with a followup injury that kept him sidelined and working his way back - he’s really only just got back into rhythm and game shape in the past month or so.

This current production is McCains floor not his ceiling as a player. He’s got some incredible potential with his shooting ability.

Yeah he isn’t good yet people are tricked by tiktoks

And their pick this year

And? Do you think a player needs to play well in 100% of games to be good?

Hes objectively exceeding expectations though, or at the very least doing exactly what was expected of him.

But if i were to agree to your point, its way early. If he has a bad playoffs we will be having a completely different discussion about this trade.

Either way, he will judged on small sample sizes until his value is cemented. Which will not be this year unless he produces some playoff heroics that contribute to a title

I’m definitely making a post next time he has a game like that and we’ll see how that does. I’m sure it will get upvoted to the top of the sub like all the rest

Sophomore has bad games wow. Overall he’s been very good for the thunder

would you rather him than cameron payne and the houston pick? Yes or no? Thats all you have to answer.

Hes shooting over 40% from three with the thunder.

It’ll be situational. As deep as we are, im sure 1-12 will all get some run throughout each series. Caso and lu for defensive purposes. Ajay Joe or jmac when we need a spark on offense or late game 3. Plus we have to see how everyone shows up come playoff time. Joe was a non factor last playoffs so you never really know

and the sixers wont get the last laugh because we never do

And yet, a important rotational piece from day one on the reigning champs with the best record. And who has 6 good guards..  Good players get minutes, period.  If you have a coaching staff with a pulse 

A couple of seconds and a late First is great value for a shooter with work ethic on a cheap contract!

He went off from 3 when the game was still in the balance. His shooting helped the Thunder pull away in the 4th.

15 points on effecient shooting for the 8 man of the Bench.  That is insane value production 

Dude have you met holier than thou spurs fans?
