    Can't disregard it, but as a fanbase be prepared for a year or two adjustment period if we don't flip Kuzma for Boogie or whatever the case is. I'm fine with that, but will the two stars who sign here be fine with that? Hard to say. Everyone is on a clock.

    So the Thunder destroyed the Cavs today, 148-124. I’m conflicted. I love LeBron and the Cavs suffering, but I don’t like the Thunder being this good.

    I want to be so well regarded as a franchise again that even if they made the WCF, that George or someone else would be still interested in coming here. (Like Durant to the Warriors)

    We still have a ways to go, but being his hometown doesn't hurt the process.

    What's left of them after gutting to be able to squeeze LBJ in here too. Paul George or bust ... FIRST priority.

    Cav's defense was just jaw-droppingly awful coupled with abysmal 3pt shooting and getting overwhelmingly outrebounded. A COMPLETE DISASTER! OKC's big 3 wasnt even trying. smh

    In a nutshell, reason why despite their struggles early on, every team in the league knows this team spells DANGER including the Warriors. And because of the OK3's superimposing big names, Adams becomes so underrated when he can actually be easily the other half of another team's big 2.

    But hey, watch them when they play teams like the Mavericks or Suns, they'd look like a lottery team.

    Yeah no kidding Steven Adams and the starting lineup are kind of physical studs but when our short handed roster played them a few days ago everyone piles on including Luke saying we got "big boyed" and didn't compete. Weren't ready to play. We lost by less I think than last 3 years NBA finals Cleveland Cavaliers. With the greatest player of all times .... all times I say .... on their team.

    I’m cool with that as long as it means he scores the sealing three in game 7 in the finals.

    Which of Lonzo, Brandon or Kyle is PG going to track down in the shower after one of our playoff losses to say he's going to help them get the ring? Or is he going to catch all 3 of them in there at once?

    A couple more weeks and if OKC's trend continues, I think the safer bed for us is to wish them all the luck in the world and win it all so PG can get over winning a C and move on from being a lieutenant for a year.

    Because right now, they're looking scarily dangerous.

    ---

    Question. What are the chances PG leaves if they:
    (1) Win it all
    (2) NBA Finals
    (3) WCF
    (4) WCSF

    A fifth scenario of having a 1st round exit would've been the best case for us but I don't think it's gonna happen.
