Isaiah Hartenstein just got $30 million a year from the Thunder. Timofey Mozgov Vibes.

[Loose]

still aint winning nothing, and shai leaving that dump to come home

I hope that lil man yall just paid does well for yall

 

[UpAndComing]

I hear you but stats alone don’t explain account for
Hart’s presence in the paint. Breh deters a lot shots and helps clog up the floor in a good way.

Hartenstein's playmaking and offensive rebounding was why he got that overpay IMO. He was great as a pick and roll passer, on target passes, and developed a decent floater

Dare I say he was a better playmaker than Brunson in the playoffs

 

[Primetime]

Shai was already my pick to win MVP next season but at this point OKC will likely be in the WCFs, if not the Finals. I forgot they picked up the last caction hero from Chicago

All they really need now is sustained health.

 

[UpAndComing]

Overpaid, but he was the final piece on the roster Presti finally working beyond the draft.

This is the first true title contender since 2016

Thunder are the best team in the West now, IMO

 

[blac_da_rappa]

I'm cool on them over paying him and not losing any players. Danny Ainge probably trying to get a monster deal for Lauri Markanen

 

[Wargames]

I wish him the best…. Knicks got to find a replacement backup center

Mitch is completely unreliable health-wise as well so 5 is a big issue. Maybe they go with Randle as a small ball 5 in some scenarios?

Brunson/DDV/Bridges/OG/Randle

I am pretty sure they will find another center to join the rotation.

its funny how the nba goes, a few years ago if you weren't a big who didn't shoot three's you were considered on your way out. "brook lopez had to start shooting 3s or he was on his way out", you need to space the floor blah blah... Hartenstein and claxton don't shoot 3s, both are raw offensively and put up the type of numbers if you threw any big oaf in teh middle you'd get the same input per minute and both got big deals

All these sloppy cacalytics stats for a backup who had a little spark for like 30% of the season as a starter

That's not true at all

Claxton with an actual PG was a borderline all-star.

Analytics DOES NOT MEAN shoot a bunch of 3's. Claxton is a career 66% shooter, mostly around the basket, which analytics loves.

Okc going to the finals with him

Your team is in fukking Oklahoma, yes you have to overpay players.

Man back when I was just fukking around online talking to women I had a couple chick's in Oklahoma that were begging me to come out there and visit. I was just shooting the shyt so I had no intention of going but man, it's some good looking women that's stuck out there desperate for some bruh's to help them get the fukk out.

Long story short, you right. If you don't own a farm or oil rig, there is no reason to want to live out there.

This a big miss by the Knicks.

I thought we was bringing back everybody and paying them extra in white bytches from Nassau county.

Now I don't understand the OG and mikal thing.
Their bigs are one of the reasons they were a tough team this year.

Unless they got a way to get another serviceable big at a cheaper price. Then I'm confused

 

[ahomeplateslugger]

he fills a big need for OKC but that's a crazy contract for someone who wasn't even a starter prior to this season.

 

[firemanBk]

we should’ve gotton rid of Randle to keep Hartenstien

Smh
Trade a 24/9/5 multiple AS level player so we can keep our C who's never averaged a double double in his career
Not to mention having Randle on the team had absolutely no bearing on keeping IHart

It's not a miss
They offered the maximum they could they got outbid, there's nothing they can do about that

 

[Bar Razor]

As someone who has watched a lot of Knicks games Hart is underrated. Perhaps an overpay but he’s gong to improve them. Along w Caruso they’ve has a great offseason.
