It was like listening to Trump hit the 10,000 lie plateau in his historically corrupt presidency. Does Sam Presti think every human on the universe only reads Low Energy Royce Young and Little Nick Gallo?
I was embarrassed for him…and the lip smacking. He literally drove me insane with the seemingly never ending lip smacking. First thing you learn in a college speech class is no gum chewing and no lip smacking. I knocked them dead with my final speech in my college speech class. Sam Presti is not in my class in that regard.
It was as if this was his first rodeo giving this speech.
I’m not sure Sam Presti hasn’t been given way too much credit for being a basketball savant.
Okay. Portland took Greg Oden in the draft. Then as we know everyone’s grandmother would have taken Kevin Durant as the second player in the draft.
So without Durant—Sam Presti is 4-12 in post season as a GM with one of the league’s highest payrolls these past two seasons.
That’s just a fact.
But he’s in Oklahoma and like when Trump is in West Virginia… they both know they can make up anything and the local simpletons will nod their heads.
The parts about Russell Westbrook’s three point shooting and the absence of the always fragile Alex Abrines as being factors which he couldn’t have forecast left my jaw agape.
Wow. Seriously…wow.
Keep chucking threes Russ because we all know Alex Abrines will be back from Spain to get the Thunder over the hump next season.
I’ll do this blind without even knowing the Thunder’s roster or schedule next season…. OKC will be a first round exit again next season and be the No. 8 seed in the West.
