The Thunder cause me to have the worst cognitive dissonance. Like, they are a team that I would hypothetically root for, if it weren't for the fact that my pettiness won't allow me to not hate Sam Presti. I don't want that guy to ever be validated by anything he does professionally, so I feel like I have to root for Oklahoma City to fail in order to spite him.

I have to ask. What has Presti done for you to hate?

Cmon man, you made a pretty big proclamation on a public forum, where you are a long term poster and moderator, and you’re feigning surprise at why someone would ask you to clarify your outrage?

Not everything has to be a thing.

First of All™, I'm not "feigning" anything. Second of All, I'm not the least bit surprised: if there was anybody on this board who was going to ask me that question, there was a one hundred percent chance it was going to be him. And the fact that I knew that is the reason why I responded the way that I did.

And, with that being said, that's as close to an answer as he's going to get out of me.

it is a forum after all, you act like asking you this question is beneath you

I would classify "beneath me" as an inaccurate choice of words, I just don't want to engage with it, and I don't feel like explaining why I don't want to engage with it. I mean, you can ask whatever question you want, I'm not going to stop you. That doesn't mean that I'm going to answer you, though; it doesn't even mean that I'm going to give you a snark-free answer, if I do decide to.

I felt like taking a cheap shot at Sam Presti, that's it, and that's all. If I felt like explaining why I hate Sam Presti, I would have led with that.

being mad at the world must be a mentally consuming activity

Sloppy play and some killer defense by both teams. Both teams need another scorer. Not sure I would have called that foul on that scramble for the ball

The "We Gettin' Arab Money" Cup stays delivering, I don't give a damn what anybody says. That was an entertaining first quarter. Could have done with fewer threes, but still.

They are saying it’s likely a first round pick going to the Nets given that was the asking price and it’s being done early. Does that set the market for useful bench pieces at a first rounder?

yeh I just saw the update. Thats probably good news for us as far as trade value but kind of annoying they got a good player for essentially 2 second rounders given they get one back from the Nets

Yeah I think Schroeder is a bit overrated so him fetching a first would have surprised me. Maybe the Nets value Melton's contract if they plan to trade him as part of another deal?

It's all about market I guess. If the Wiz still want a first or two for Kuz or the Nets want one for DFS/Cam Johnson then they'll have to wait for a team to get desperate more than likely.
