I'm not over the moon about the current lineup...they're 6-8 in a year when the non-covert we're-tanking-for-wemby-Spurs are a game behind. But there's definitely things to look forward to if you're a fan. SGA as the cornerstone is a good position to be in.

Understood. The inexperience/youth is what I like about the current roster build. I can tell you most here in OKC do not want any part of a veteran/free agent in OKC. Most are still insecure about how the Durant deal went down, in setting the franchise back 10 years by how he left. So we’re all-in on building through the draft. I like what we have currently, and hope that a healthy Chet can give them another piece to grow from. I still think it’s 2 years away from being a competitive squad. At that point isn’t one, if they’re on the verge of pushing for a deep playoff run, I can agree to adding a few veteran pieces to put them over the edge.
