Just shows how bad we are without Shai and Giddey. Can't blame rookies like Jre ou Mann. The rest...we can get rid of them.

Flabbergasted tbh. I get that it's basically a perfect storm with the depleted roster/3rd game in 4 nights/2nd night of a road b2b but to commit the greatest loss in NBA history is admittedly just putrid. This squad showed no fire tonight. Ownership/FO/coaching/players should all be feeling embarrassed about tonight even if they end up getting another marginal tenth of a percent better lotto odds because of it.

What's funny though is I'm sure we'll look back on this box score in a few years and be like "Wow JRE was on this team and he was a -56!?"

Glad I didn't watch this one. And here comes the trade SGA talk. I'm going to need an internet break soon.

What a shame this game. Also the kind of turnovers.

Watson, Deck, Poku and Bazley. I don't see a future in OKC for them.

We went from OKC being a 9-73 team to being the worst team in history because of a terrible game without our 2 best players and two important vets.

I really don't care about the rest of the team other than SGA, Dort & Giddey tbh (and want to see something from Mann and JRE).

I was wrong on Maledon I guess but I still don't get the Bazley/Poku picks. I know Poku is very young but I don't see anything special in him.

Think Presti is an elite GM and won't ever blame him for the Giddey pick (even if GIddey ends up being a bad player) but I don't understand some other draft selections...

Still at least one/two seasons for Presti to make the right picks and trades.

This is an extremely ugly loss that changes absolutely nothing about the future. Shai and Giddey are good. Bazley and Poku aren’t at the moment. We need another young star. None of that has changed for better or worse as a result of last night despite the bad pr that will come.
