Not a fan of CP3 but the fact that he stayed AND excelled in OKC is admirable.

Kemba ain't even try.

Different situations tho, CP3 squad was actually trying to be competitive, Kemba got sent to a full on tank operation…Can’t blame yo for not wanting to be there as an aging vet

Kevin O’Connor seems to be the nicest and once of the more logical reporters.

Clearly Nurkic is triggered from the past

Good enough for me.

@amitt5504

ALEX CARUSO TIER 5 ?!?

Damn Ratsull fell off that bad?

It's harder to argue a tiered list.

I demand an ordered numerical list.

Trey Murphy shot is butter

 

[iheartboost]

Is Perk really connected like that to get the inside info, serious question

No.

I bet this ***** plug is an online sneaker forum.

I’m not giving up $20Ms for nothing

I used to think like this till I smartened up. Would rather get 20 mil or get a book that teaches you how to make 21 mil?

Matter fact, I’d rather you take 20 mil from me than give me 20 mil. It’ll just make me grind harder

 

[SneakerProSr.]

OKC's coach and SGA already too good to be a true dumpster fire.

Unless they get funny with playing time again they'll never be inline to get a top 3 pick again.

 

[xxpizzo]

Isaiah Joe butter from 3

want to see more of him this season

 

[shuges]

I'd say so. As already stated, he's Klutch all the way.

It's also been pointed out how tightknit these dudes are. Him and KD patched things up and that shout out from Draymond was them just messing with Perk imo.

PJ Tucker also came on the show and thanked Perk for not releasing the news that he was headed to Milwaukee bc PJ said Perk was one of the first he told.

I'm sure some players don't like him but he clearly has enough clout with the important ones.

 

[MajinZuub]

No.

Perk been tied to Klutch for years

Westbr00k is gotdamn menace. This guys can’t even let people work out without stealing all the rebounds.

The goal for OKC is to be in the top 10 mix and have the league bless em with the ping pong ball …They’ll be picking top 3 in one of these upcoming drafts

I feel you but this lowkey kinda dumb when you could be having Dinner with Jay-Z. That's the right answer

If you think about it, Kemba was in a really crappy situation in OKC. Either you give up tons of money on your deal or the thunder will hold you hostage by not allowing you to play.

I realize that being paid tens of millions of dollars to not work is a dream to most people but it's a nightmare to a competitive, high level athlete.

The Thunder had no ill intent with Kemba. He was going to be able to (hopefully) play and rehab his value around the league and then he would have been traded for picks and more bad salary rehab projects (like Horford just was). Presti even goes out of his way to trade guys to where they want to go. I bet we see a Kevin Love or a Porzingi trade soon

Also, given he got all but 4m of the money back I guess it's not a bad deal for him he didn't leave too much on the table. He could have given it a chance though, if he was healthy, him and SGA would have been something.

Silver/Stern don't even **** with us like that though. We never got a sketchy, storyline rigged pick. Cleveland got 1 for losing Bron. Minnesota got one for losing Love. N.O got one with the new ownership. We lost 3 mvps, can we got a #1 pick in a good year sir? ***** put us 6th, right in a place where Presti could have leeway to do something dumb again because he's the smartest man in the room. Always drafting ****** without hoopmixtapes

Instead of getting 20 million outright, get a loan for 20 million and flip that tenfold

Naw the league office def invested in having star power in that market …OKC and N.O always gon get a lil push if/when they need it due to the NBA forcing teams there, don’t want it to look too bad

Koc and his draft takes are always good for a laugh
