Lol. Literally most teams are still a chance at the play in. Which is a joke anyway. You can have a losing record and make it.

I hope he stays also. But they will tank later in the year. That's a given.

OKC have never cared about winning other when they caught lighting in a bottle with KD, WB and Harden.

They won't go over the cap. As Khal says, they'll continue to turn a profit and be happy.

Shai sounds like he's happy though at least. At some stage though Giddey needs to run the show.
