O.G. is playing phenomenally hard. To be able to do what he’s been doing demands incredible dedication. I just wonder if his body will hold up to the rigour given his past inability to play a full season.
precious will be back better than ever. Dont get me wrong it sucks that he got injured but i think he can use the time to sit back and watch the team, watch some game film, see what he can do to get better and help the team, I think he'll come back smarter and stronger.
Hopefully Precious recovers quickly, but it's about time Thad Young and OPJ take some of his minutes.
We don't need a star right now, we need to develop Scottie Barnes and make him the next top 5 guy. The window for championship is next couple season. These up coming dudes are just pieces to trade for a bunch of role players to help our big three Scottie/Siakham and FVV.
Bring back Wilson
Shai is a max player that will demand $200 million for 4 years we not giving anyone that because Scottie Barnes after his 4 rookie years he will demand money like Giannis in the 30-40 million a year. Precious Achiuwa try to force selfish plays and that why I could see injury like this coming
Anthony Davis thinks Khem Birch is injured all the time.
Can someone asked Nick Nurse why isn’t he playing Justin Champagnie?
let Drake do the talking for Shai
This is the time for next man up. I think Raps will benefit from this in the long run.
Some of y’all are gonna be shocked at what SGA costs when it comes time to get him. You think we are genuinely going to get an up and coming superstar for Gtj’s expiring contract and OG? Scottie for Sga swap is going to happen and that’s better for us I promise you
@benrogers do you realize SGA cant be traded till june 29 2023 the earliest?
I feel bad for precious but it's not like the team is going to miss him
There's no way we're getting Shai, outside of Scottie what would they possibly want from us? Doesn't make any sense for OKC
if okc trades shai they should be relegated to the gleague absolute joke franchise
Barnes should be sitting out as well until his foot heals. Who cares about the standings. Let the kids play with a long leash. It's not a chip year for the raps anyways
Precious can use the time to work on his shooting skills as you say, he can also bulk up his upper body, spend a lot of time in the video booth with the trainers building up his IQ, learning to see things better, make better choices. And just watching from courtside without the pressure of waiting for his number to be called.
I love SGA but we'd give up wayyy too much to get him. It would be like buying in high rather than low. The only way you wouldn't pay an outrageous price for SGA is if he asks to be traded, and he seems happy to stick with OKC while they build around him so far.
just a question …does anyone think this type of foot/ankle injury is somehow related to wearing low cut basketball sneakers?..not trying to jump to any conclusions, just curious what any one else might respectfully think
Banton needs more minutes
Get Crowder
I feel the nba purposely injures our team out of feeling threatened
That’s the danger when you play with that much intensity night in and night out..
