The phrase has always been mathematically inaccurate regardless of how it has been phrased.
100% or 0% OF something that doesn't even exist isn't what they think it is.

Why would anyone want a 40 year old shooting these percentages? Who also doesn’t defend, rebound or create for others? He’s not good enough to get a farewell tour. Man had a 19 year career. He exceeded expectations.

Would throw Randle but he doesn’t fit the timeline there. They probably get better offers but the players are solid value.

It's kind of insane.
You'd think your effort to stockpile all these assets as a mid/small-market team is so you can go dump them on someone else for a great player.
They just gonna keep drafting players and hope over time that one or two of them just love being in Oklahoma?

I can dig that.
Because cats saying poor defense and poor shooting as if JC hasn't been exactly that for the past 15 years isn't making sense to me.
Because everyone seems to be parroting each other. Give me something more than "can't shoot" and "poor defense" when again, this is who he has been since forever.
Y'all better than that.

In high school, I had EVERYONE switching they style up. White with white shoes, black with black.
or no socks with certain shoes. Some shoes just look better without socks

We will take Kemba and Shai off of OKC's hands for them

Now it's probably over for Crawford but I do think he could have been solid for someone last few years. Like other pacific northwest hooper seems like his career was cut short just a bit early (IT, Nate)

It's early for Presti to shop SGA, but he's going to keep rolling over contracts and not let his players enter unrestricted free agency unless he gets the super duper star.

So again, are you purposely ignoring the fact that he has been even WORSE in terms of his efficiency over his last 3 seasons?
He is 40 years old, which means his body is more prone to injury (Which was proven).
I'm really not sure why us speaking on this means we don't LIKE him.
That's why I said I couldn't tell if you were being serious.
Why would a team want this from a 40 year old?
There are SO many other dudes that hoop that could give you this. Why him?

Would you rather win games & have expectations or be applauded by John Hollinger for having 9 draft picks in 2026?
It's a tough call.

Cut short? He played 19 years in the league. Last season was the first season he didn't make a roster.

It's silly.
Part of me gets it. Part of me looks at it and I'm just like... At what point do you plant your flag and say "GO"?
You're just gonna keep trying to be bad until you land a LeBron? We've seen how that plays out. Durant didn't wanna stay because you couldn't get anyone else there. You traded Harden because you either didn't want or couldn't afford to pay three mega-stars.

Yea but the original quotes weren't meant to be funny. They were meant to be motivational. Bad math and motivation doesn't mix.

Right, but if I said 'Most comedybtaken literally...' it wouldn't tie into the originally referenced quote on 100% of the shots you don't take.Also, this statement is highly false anyway.
But can you name a joke that's funny even after being taken literally, at face value?

Everything with OKC always comes down to how cheap they are …that’s the simple reasoning in what they are doing
They gon end up hittin on a draft pick and stress about yo not having any help cuz they got rid of everybody before the new player got there
…It’s hard to assemble a group of good players, you at least have to give em a shot at competing before you “start over”

SGA been linked via trade to the Lakers for a bag of beans and a empty tomato can (aka Kyle kuzma) yet?
