This OKC game pretty much explains why I don't care about DSJ. Dallas can keep him

OKC roster was so clumsily constructed.

Wow, in reference to the Spurs and OKC, are we seeing the decline of two of the league's best managed organizations?

Mitchell is too good. **** you Phil. **** you a trillion times over. How could have you picked Ntilikina over him. It's not even close! Wingspan isn't everything.

The drama follows Melo. If/when PG leaves and Melo re-ups Westbrook is going to lose his mind.

I know Westbrook is Westbrook. But OKC was still more productive without Melo. He fled to a team with two made stars and still failed. His offensive game and clutchness was always overrated.

Serious? Phil was one of the few who was up on him. He actually wanted BOTH guys.

No proof of that.
Even so, he should have secured Mitchell first and then tried to get Frank.
