Thunder training camp starts tomorrow and amid Trump’s Corona Pandemic epic fail this will be a Thunder season like none before.
As I’ve written before on my blog…if Sam Presti was ever going to blow it up in one magnificent swoop…this is the time.
This is the time to lose and align the stars to draft a player like Cade Cunningham. This is the time to go 14-58 in a 72 game shortened season and align a core of Cade, SGA, Lu Dort, D-Baze and perhaps someone else Presti has in mind none of us are thinking of currently.
No one is going to attend the Thunder games in Oklahoma City. No one at this point should have any illusions what this season neeeds to be about.
As my buddy Barry Tramel wrote…”To not tank now would be fiduciary malpractice of the most grotesque nature.”
This is the way you get top elite black talent to a Trump racist market like Oklahoma City with the exception of Paul George and none of us in hindsight know what the the hell he was thinking.
SAM PRESTI HAS TO ACQUIRE ELITE TALENT TO OKLAHOMA CITY WITH LOTTERY PICKS BECAUSE OTHER THAN PAUL GEORGE WHAT OTHER ELITE BLACK FREE AGENT WOULD COME HERE IF THEY DIDN’T HAVE TO. And in essence…Paul George was more of a sign and trade…on a delayed basis albeit.
Team building in Oklahoma City cannot include elite free agents coming here for the most part…even when Durant and Westbrook were at their apex. Even Pau Gasol in his twilight years wouldn’t come here.
This is how Sam Presti has to do it in a place where 70% of the people in this state voted for Donald Trump twice by a plurality which I’m certain is the highest among cities in either the NBA or NFL.
It is what it is. If you can’t handle the truth don’t waste your time reading my blog. Read that mamby pamby millenial nonsense on Daily Thunder if you can’t handle the truth.
You read my blog and you’ll learn the truth and how to beat Vegas consistently on your NBA picks.
Just saying.
