the board is overrating Smith and killing Jackson beyond his demerits.

we are a mediocre team in a mediocre conference, whoever runs the point. period.

You should hear Jazz fans talk about Enes Kanter.

Every fanbase has at least one of those guys, I think.


Who do Thunder fans hate more, RJ or KD? :wink:


Probably KD, tbh. But RJ's up there. KD at least didn't tear up the locker room on the way out.

I don't generally come in the Pistons board and talk about Reggie, though, cause there's...history.


I don't get it. A reserve guard is a locker room problem and gets moved. Two years later we have Thunder fans still checking out another team forum for threads about him. This obsession is bizarre.

After Smith got moved, it didn't matter a lot to me where he went or how he did.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

I'll put my pretend PhD to use here:

I believe Thunder fans still hate RJ with such passion is because he's the one that walked away first!

The Thunder CHOSE to trade Harden so they can't be mad at him

Reggie CHOSE to leave them when he could have replaced Harden's output

And that CHOICE then leads to KD bailing...

So RJ is the reason the Thunder died
