Our beloved OKC Thunder may or may not be tanking, but make no mistake they are rebuilding. During a successful rebuild the GM must be ruthless. Players come and go, barely getting their 15 minutes of fame, then all but the few precious keepers are shunted aboard the first greyhound out of town.
We have 15 first round picks in the next four years, that’s a full NBA squad of rookie players. While there’s no way in hell they let me, or even Presti, make all those picks, those ‘assets’ will eventually be turned into incoming players in some form or other.
