Man how lucky, even the stock photo has the "00" jersey! It's like they knew the whole time.

If we do make a trade I hope Presti manages to clear some of his mistakes off the roster. No reason to pay some of these stiffs for the next several years if we can flush them away.

This would be about as big of a win that is realistically possible for us. Surely we can beat out the clippers.

How does this affect the trade deadline moves?


One has to hope they're rushing him out there to trade him.

We can't trade our 2017 first. And if we could, Presti would have already gotten rid of it for a freakishly athletic guy missing three fingers on his shooting hand.

Disappointing but not surprising.

On a side note, I listen to some of the OKC sports radio on IHeartRadio. It's amazing how clueless these hosts on the franchise and WWLS are in regard to the salary cap. I'm not an expert but I also don't work in sports radio. Al Eschbach Has no idea what's happening in the sports world.

Eschbach and Traber are really bad on NBA stuff. I don't know enough about the other stuff they talk about to know, but the NBA coverage is not good.

Eschbach was talking about trading for Rudy Gay three days after he tore his Achilles. I'm not expecting him to be a scout but maybe watch sports center occasionally.
