    I was able to get floor seats last night . This was the worst performance by a home basketball team that I have ever seen in my life on any level. We have one player that could start for another NBA team SGA and Dort would be an off the bench player on another NBA team. So we have one and a half starters compared to other NBA teams. Charlotte was the 22nd ranked team out of 30 in the NBA. We could set the record for losses. potentially set the record for losses.

      I'm not sure whether to be happy or sad? I know that as busy as I am every evening, right now is a good time for the Thunder to suck balls. I'd appreciate when my kids are older and out of the house that the Thunder go back to winning though. Sounds like that's about the time line.

        I'm predicting 15 wins for this season. What is your number? Weren't you right on last season?

          I picked 21 wins last season and they ended with 22. And I posted that I was debating whether they'd win 21 or 22 during last years preseason. I didn't see them winning that last one against the Clippers.

          The year before I was also the closest. So you all suck and I don't until proven otherwise.

          And I'll be waiting until later in the preseason to give my pick. Gotta build the excitement up. ChpThril doesn't pay me to just give away advice without getting clicks first.

            Wasn't able to watch but saw plenty of clips of Giddey making sweet passes to somebody who either bricked or blew a layup.

            Is it gonna be like that this year?

              I hate you Sam Presti. I really fucking hate you and how you’ve turned this one proud franchise into a loser. I can’t even tolerate seeing you on tv. It’s the ultimate gag reflex.

                Woof. What little I've seen of this game tonight, and preseason...just bad. 18 wins and I think that's optimistic.

                First home game is Sunday. Hrm.

                  To truly appreciate how bad this team is - when the second unit is in.

                  Would that group even win a G League championship?

                  I like Giddey though.

                    I’m going with 16 wins this season for the thunders.

                          Welp, I’m going to watch this team on league pass this year but it’s going to be tough.

                                Yeah. And I’ll watch eventually. Probably around Xmas time.

                                  As long as we are losing to the other bottom dwellers this season I’m happy. Gonna be rough though, but the way the league is structured it has to happen.

                                    My expert analysis of watching a a quarter and a half of the first two games, holy hell.

                                    To say this team is tanking would be a compliment. This team is a Mariana Trench submarine.

                                    Shai needs to be traded whenever possible. He is wasted on this god forsaken team.

                                      Is the apathy for the Thunder in this forum the same as the apathy for the team in OKC?

                                        My daughter wants to go to the Lakers game on Wed. *sigh*

                                        I don't get why we didn't move SGA if we were going to continue down this path. I understand that is a discussion that's moot now. He shouldn't be part of this shit, as much as it hurts me to say, he should be with a team that's gonna try to win games at least. Presti screwed up this window I think, last off-season was the time to push all chips in, instead he pushed them further down the road, while extending SGA.

                                            It really burns that the Thunder could have drafted Mobley and Giddey.

                                            The lotto really fucked us.

                                              Realistically, what's the first win? Sacramento? Houston? Definitely nothing over the next five games, right?

                                                  I don't know if he sucks but I do know some GMs that think he's quite over rated. I think it depends on what you think he "sucks" at. Is it trading and contracts? He's pretty solid at that. Can swindle some teams. I don't think he's great at drafting and relies too many promised picks. I also think he's too heavy handed into the rotational choices. It's not a coincidence that once Thabo left they replaced him with someone just like him and it was still a different coach.

                                                    They tried to win last night leading for almost 3 quarters. But lost to Golden State 106-98. Tankathon 2.0 is at full force.

                                                        If anything, I think Giddey is going to be a player. All 3 of the rookies LOOK like they were good picks so far.

                                                            Giddey may be something.

As you said, Dangault implied that the team needed to talk to them about how to handle that situation. Russ isn't part of this team anymore. Not his place.

                                                                          He was upset his team blew a 26 point lead to his former team.
