They need to blow this up sooner than later.
Coming into last season I felt Dame/Portland were in the same situation as Harden/Houston were after 2020.

It was a ho move by James with how it happened but it also forced/dragged Houston’s complacent ownership kicking and screaming into a much needed rebuild.

And now we have a pretty bright future with the young bulls.

I went to the Wizards Open Practice

Man, I've seen enough of these rookie hazings to say that NBA players' rhythm is getting worse by the generation. NFL players at least can still cut up a rug.

Shaq probably shaking his head somewhere.

We might actually have to tank the way everyone thinks we tank :pachaha:

How much longer will OKC fans accept tanking?
I can see 1 or 2 years but it seems like y’all have been doing it forever. What are the fans saying?

Blazers hands down are the worst....

They struggled against the Jazz....


and they're actually trying smh

Stop it. Y’all have Dame, Simons & Grant. Don’t put much weight in preseason games.

Y’all have Dame, OKC has Shai & Giddy, Orlando has Banchero & Wager, & Detroit has Cade & Bey.

Spurs don’t have any fringe all star/certified all star. They’re going to be the worst team this season.

Have you seen our defense? Scoring isn’t the problem.

Our defense is pure garbage. Just a lack of effort.

We got hoed around by the jazz who have a bunch of role players on their way out the league.

Cade Cunningham putting up Ben Simmons type numbers :picard: Hasn’t made a shot outside 5 feet
Being honest, Cade was never a lethal/nuclear shooter like that.

The Luka comparisons were kind of crazy from that standpoint alone.

Still a really good player though, not everyone is going to be Luka.

Y’all defense been ass for years now :russ:

Do you think y’all will be a lottery team? Dame, Simons and Grant are a nice trio.

I can see y’all getting bounced in the play in vs not making it at all
