Yeah that's a head scratcher. But no doubt he'd rather have his titles and finals appearances than a guy like say Don Nelson who won COY and never a title (as a coach)
Dont get how that 67-15 27 game win streak squad didn't get him coy

OKC has 37 picks in next 7 drafts.....

Holy shit!!!!
Just a matter of time until they get rid of some. But with the new cba this just may be how Presti operates. He always has picks when the opportunity to do something appears.

Unfortunately I think being under Riley has had an effect. One I don’t agree with.

Don't get how you still rip him most games LOL

I mean, I do get it but it's fair game to bust your balls about it

Homer on man. Harden had two good games and four bad games.

"Alzheimer's?" <---always with the typical immature & petty insults (good for you) And obviously you choose to ignore his lousy games in that series. So expected.

You seem to think scoring 40 twice erases four games where he shot a combined 12-55 from the field & 3-24 from downtown with 15 TO's.
I’m responding to you saying 22/6/5 through his playoff career is “lousy”. It’s all good. You don’t really watch basketball like the rest of us. The league needs casuals like you to make the economics work. Just don’t step out and say stupid things so much. Then you won’t find yourself having to argue that 22/6/5 is “lousy”.

I think he is looking for the perfect disgruntled star to add to the kiddie corps..

Na he’s not in that mode yet, he’s still in development mode. He says why in the world would I trade for someone I might already have on the roster? He’s not going to be rushed.

You are clinging to the player he could be, not the player he is. Just a horrible teammate is what he is.
Hey guys! Not sure you knew but Thunder hates James Harden.

Robison Earle could still turn into a pretty good player.

Sure but come on, he knows a lot more about that than you
Where did i say he didnt? But he isn't perfect either

His substitution pattern during the regular season is a head scratcher at times. Im not the only one who thinks that

All pro sports with their coach of the year are fugaze. They give coach of the year to the Little Engine That Could Coach. If your team is supposed to be poor and they’re actually decent people flip out and give that guy coach of the year.

That is awful lot of picks to be hoarding....

Point being when he makes a move you scratch your head over, he isn't doing that just to fuck with you. He has reasons, he has his own plan, and he knows 10x more about it than you.

To be fair it's a pretty subjective thing to say Coach X is 'better' than another good Coach Y.

Thats fine and it doesn't mean its the right decision.

Having Bam and Jimmy both out from late 3rd to middle of the 4th is something no heat fan would ever agree with especially when it led to lot of losses....he didn't agree either as he eventually made the adjustment in February
