Thunder beat The Nuggets by fifteen points. Westbrook has another dismal shooting performance. Presti was wise to trade him away. SGA is becoming a superstar.
The Thunder are the superior team right now. Westbrook is a rotation guy off the bench. Yeah he didn't shoot it well but he also had 5 rebounds and 5 assists in 21 minutes. He is far from the worst problem the Nuggets have. Presti traded Westbrook because the team was going into full rebuild mode. The fans of OKC will, rightfully, always love Russ. Not sure why you would even bring him up. As for the Thunder, they looked great and Chet is a budding superstar.Thunder beat The Nuggets by fifteen points.

Yep, Chet and J-Dub could carry an NBA team, add in the superstar SGA and all the depth and you're looking at a finals level team.Thunder look like the best team in the league.
At some point you probably won't be able to keep role players like Wiggins, Joe, Jaylin Williams, Wallace, Dort etc down the line so you need draft picks to replace them. If you try to just keep say Chet, JDub, SGA as long as they are capable having those draft picks will be valuable to fill in the other spots. IHart is only on a 3 year deal and if you extend that you probably will have to let others go. JDub and Chet are probably about to get big contracts in a year or so. And you already have SGA till like 2031. With as much space as the top 3 guys will take you probably are only gonna keep a couple of the other role players at most.It will be really interesting to see what Presti does with all of the picks that are upcoming. The roster is already stacked with young talent.
I don't think OKC needs another superstar. Do you just keep pushing them back in time until you need them?
Chet out about two to three months with a fractured hip. No Ihart to fill in for him.Ihart out about 6 weeks.
It kind of helps when because of injuries, The Thunder's low post player is 6'5".PJ Washington is very mid except for when he plays the Thunder lol. Dude always plays out of his mind against us
