I was wondering tonight during the game, how do y'all in the city perceive the team going into the playoffs?Specifically, is it more of an attitude like "well we don't expect to advance" or is it more like a blind allegiance like "we expect to compete with anyone"
Secondarily, how do fans view the Vic Oladipo situation? The fact that he was maligned as a Thunder but now is doing well

Also, EG plays defense, and often times surprisingly good defense

He's going to waste away wherever he is because he's him.
I hope PG13 does leave because it doesn't behoove us for him to stay.
We need a bunch of Abrines slash Corey Brewer slash Etwaan Moore's.
We don't need any player better than an Eric Gordon if they are wings and guards.
ROle players and shooters are with low usage% are the only players Russ can be "somewhat" succesful with........
If you're more than a role player when you get to OKC(with Russ), you for sure will leave less than a Star.

Thing is, I never said I'd rather have Lou over Gordon.. Gordon is perfect compliment to that team and can start or come off the bench seamlessly

It's actually 19 years if you include the 50-game lockout season.

Man tbh, other than my immediate Family, I haven't had alot of exposure to the outside World so I can't really tell you what the temperature of our fanbase is.

I'm on that Grind right now so my head is down but.........I did hear some folks this morning, on the Radio, who echoed my sentiments and those are that OKC is built for they Playoffs and they ALL believe they will be highly succesfull once they Start(assuming they make it)

Clips led for 48 seconds in that game. Definition of stealing a win.
This is crazy. The West now will officially have 10 teams w/winning records.

no wonder terry stotts left him in despite them being down like 10 with 3 minutes after he got hurt... he fell down like 3-4 times after that too on drives to the basket. thought they had the 3 seed locked up.

So the several years he spent with KD being Contenders & going to WCF isn't Considered "somewhat Successful" ? The same teams that had immaculate Shooters Such As Thabo, Jeff Green, Caron Butler, Serge, Reggie Jackson?
Literally the exact opposite of what you just stated Russ needs to "somewhat Succeed" is what he succeeded with in the majority of his career.

KD is KD.
OKC/Russ will never have that again.
I'm talking in the now, that was all then.
They had their chance.
Russ isn't taking them anywhere.

10 years later and hundreds of games and mainly this Season watching Russ play after it was pointed out to me, how he moves............yea man, at this point in his career, he needs what I listed, in order to be anywhere close to succesfull.
That or a WHOLE BUNCH of luck.

...............and I'm tired of his quips and one liners and turdbucketass attitude.
Have some grace.
Someone needs to punch him hard AF in the face, but miss and hit that fake chip that sits on his shoulder, and knock it into a Million pieces.
Yes, I've had it...with Rus.............s

Your original comment wasn't geared towards them Winning it all tho, it was more geared towards this ridiculous narrative that Russ can't have "success" with other talented players, when he proved that Constantly for 8 years.

Meh, I'm not going to get into a debate over what success is.
Russ will make the playoffs (maybe, most times anyway).
That is it.

Well looking at The Rockets & Warriors i'll be inclined to agree, that's not an indictment on him tho. two superior & deeper teams.
