Underplayed. Suspended. Undrafted. If my story teaches you anything, it's to never give up.

Jones is going to be my favorite player this year.

Teams that might be interested in McBob:

CHA
CLE
DAL
LAC
MIN
OKC
PHO
SAS

Honestly, I can't see many good (and likely) returns from that bunch.

Talks on an extension broke down between the Thunder and Harden on an extension, and Presti moved quickly to trade him.

Damn I leave the apartment for a quick second just to get something out of my car and OKC trades Harden to the Rockets. That is a good ass trade for OKC, very well done by Presti.

I'm interested to see the protection on those picks, if there is any. If there isn't, this is a steal for the Thunder.

Houston sends two 2013 first-round picks (from Dallas and Toronto) to Oklahoma CIty, source tells Y!

I think that Toronto pick is a lottery pick, IIRC

Damn it!!!!!!!!!!

Harden was my man.

Watch the dude ball now.

Just think... Had we made the Houston deal, we could have Harden on the team right now.
