I don't even think the local OKC fans know enough about basketball in general to hold Westbrook accountable.
Paul George made a historically poor business decision based on an irrelevant emotional requirement masquerading as a chief principle. The move for him was the Lakers. Should not have mattered if we traded for him or not. _________________ “There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you.

If the Thunder get bounced, you’d have to think that Donovan gets fired. Bringing Donovan In is a move I could get behind. Russ is so ball dominant and inefficient I’m not sure all the coaching in the world could make a team centered around him successful.
Who knows really. Changing the roster probably means changing your draft position. Which could be good or bad. Trading Lou was partly a tanking move. Also we wouldn't have the 1st from the Lou trade or the 1st from the DLO trade to take Kuzma.
I still like Lonzo/Ingram/Kawhi/Bron as unit more then that team. Maybe because I'm delusional, but Kawhi>PG easily. If we get Kawhi, not getting PG would insntantly become a blessing. _________________ “Life is too short. You have to keep it moving.” - Kobe

The question now is how well can PG recover from the (shooting) shoulder injury. _________________ Trade AD now.

So now taking home $1-2 mil more is a poor business decision? _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023.

Begs the question if he could have made that up in non-basketball related business activities and also set himself up for life after basketball?

wait, you actually believe you know what is the best decision for Paul George or anyone else more so than they themselves do? Why is it so hard for some to accept reality as it is, instead of always pretending it is what they prefer it to be?
Paul George decided to stay in OKC for many reasons that only he truly knows and understands.....it is that simple.

When you consider he could have gotten an extra $5-6mm in endorsements for coming home.
