I'm going through the worst teams (by record) in the NBA for my blog and did up the Sonics.
I'd love to hear any feedback. Thanks.

I say well done. One thing that will not appeal to anyone on the Sonic board is that you said "soon-to-be" Oklahoma City Sonics. Most people still have faith that they will stay

, me being one of those people. I love how you described Swift, haha.
Nice profile picture thing too. Flight of the Conchords is the greatest

Your summary shows pretty good awareness of team roster.
One quibble would be I'd call Collison good at cleaning up in the post off on putbacks or taking advantage of mistakes in defensive coverage and dump passes but not anything above average (and maybe not even average) at operating from the post by called play in the face of good coverage.
One suggestion (perhaps for other team reports) might be to go further in the examination of the vets in relation to league averages for a specific position and role (starter / sub, emphasized scorer / not. If you did I think you'd probably move from saying a lot of the vets are somewhat decent to saying they are clearly below average compared to their peers in important ways and generally overall as well and that is a major contributing factor to the very weak team record along with trading the stars and their replacements, playing the rookies, lack of familiarity & chemistry and subpar coaching (for both offensive and defensive strategies).
I checked out a few of your other posts at your site. Good luck with it and good luck to the Wolves.
