@kennygee90 Did you just " seen " that ? Do you seen the sticks you must live in ?
@MisterJohnsonOKC @tydude Traber said for two years that Presti made a mistake drafting Russell, I guess you gonna defend that also ........................... you spend too much time on these forums and sucking off Traber.
@MisterJohnsonOKC @tydude Oh good grief ......... yes, he plays PG, he's not a traditional PG, but he's as much a PG as Derrick Rose, now go suck on Trabers cock some more.
@tydude This from the guy who said Russell was not a PG , for TWO FRICKEN YEARS , buy into what he sells, at your own risk. He's an expert at conducting a sports radio talk show, nothing else.
@TaoMaas @okcjim Cept Miami does not really go small, Lebron is a big. Their " small " lineup has three bigs. That's what causes all the teams in the NBA a problem. Its why they are a great team.
@persiansooner How soon they forget about the 50 Plus million our owners spent to get out of the lease in Seattle , that was on top of already over paying for the Sonics. They paid 350 mil, while Forbes said the were worth 260 .
Our owners are wealthy men, who are making a lot of money from successful business'es, they did not buy this team to make a profit.
@Legendary_Dork State and Fed Tax eat up a big part of the diff, he won't risk injury this season for the other part of the diff.
@Royce Young Give credit to Tydude at Thunderfans.com
Cept they misspelled Thunder ................. Thudner ????
@MisterJohnsonOKC But we won't know if Maynor has lost anything, till we see him on the court. He's not very athletic to begin with.
@justin_mia I disagree. Whether Jones can play the 4 and the development of Cole/Thabeet ............ might make the amnesty of Perk easier.
Two questions for this training camp.
How far back is Maynor in his rehab ?
And what do we have in Perry Jones ?
I think the answer to those questions might play into whether Harden signs before Oct 31. But I'm not sure we will know the answer to either one by Oct 31.
@Crow Thunder making 20 to 30 mil more per year in OKC
See historical bar graph here

@Crow On a bar graph at the bottom of this page, are revenue numbers for the Sonics for years 99 through 2008

Trouble with Abbott's analogy, is the Sonics team revenue in Seattle was terrible. In the same year that the Hornets moved to OKC on four weeks notice, season 2005/06 ......... the Hornets playing in OKC were within 3 millon revenue of the Sonics in Seattle.
http://www.forbes.com/lists/2005/32/Revenues_1.html
Think about that one for a minute.
And in 2006/07 , the Hornets made higher revenue numbers than the Sonics did in Seattle
http://www.forbes.com/lists/2006/32/biz_06nba_NBA-Team-Valuations_Revenue.html
And the Sonics were perennially at the bottom of the NBA in revenue numbers, somewhere around 80 million per year, for the entire 2000's.
Abbott and the other Northwesterners, don't wanna deal with that reality.
And if the goal is parity among the teams in the league, then I do not see Abbotts point. How a team came to a small market , has no bearing on creating parity. That's what the CBA negotiations were supposedly all about last year, creating more parity.
@diddoff You must look at revenue, not operating income. Thunder had high net income because they have low salaries.
You talking bottom line, gotta look at top line.
@justin_mia You just make it up , as you go along.
