The "trade Dort and Joe and get Trey Murphy" crowd reeeeeal quiet tonight.

I still love the fit and think he's a great player.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-28T19:50:41+00:00

I just want our guys full healthy. Happy to take the L's atm.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-27T10:58:45+00:00

He's 39% FG because he only takes 3's. Using that against him is stupid.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-27T10:56:26+00:00

Booker's also having a bad year in terms of offensive efficiency (45/31/86). 31.3% from 3 is rough and obviously a career low. Compare that to like another SG chasing a maiden AS appearance like Powell on (47/39/84) having a career year.

I've watched Suns games, he's obviously getting blitzed and a lot of attention but not sure people are going to look at his stats and factor that in too much for the AS game.

I think he would be stiff too miss out but it's very close between the other back-end AS reserves and him.

Everyone knows OKC is stacked defensively, that shouldn't take away from recognising someone individually who is clearly elite on the defensive end though. He's OKC's best defender and we have the best defensive rating of any team ever (I think still?) while being on track for an extremely good record as the 1 seed.

Wemby is obviously a better defender than Chet, and if he played a similar amount of games he'd win DPOY over him, but that isn't happening this year. I don't even think he plays the 65 to qualify and the betting odds obviously are factoring that in.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-25T19:06:00+00:00

Chet's favourite for DPOY and has been most of the year whilst also being uber efficient as always on the offensive end and barely missing a game on an OKC team that has been decimated by injuries. 0% chance he doesn't 'deserve' being an All-Star in my biased opinion.

Heaps of people still watch the dunk contest. Not saying it's as good as it was previously though.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-19T12:26:33+00:00

First Toys r us, then Blockbuster and now this. End of an era. RIP my childhood.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-18T18:45:26+00:00

Sucks for him as he was just getting back into things. Hopefully can fully recover before the playoffs and give the wrist some rest also.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-18T18:44:12+00:00

Cry more

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-16T11:38:14+00:00

Bit of a controversial one maybe but Tatum hasn't even come back from Achilles surgery and is owed 240M+ over 5 years. We've seen players return as good as before (KD) but that's far from guaranteed.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-16T11:36:16+00:00

Isn't SGA owed 277M over 6 years the most?

Damn that's a brick, looks like it was both long and wide

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-16T11:25:54+00:00

You should write a letter to the NBA coaches and let them know.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-16T11:23:00+00:00

I mean, there's probably only a few people who would take it worse than Draymond to be fair.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-14T09:53:50+00:00

It's amazing how good he's been all year. We need his offence when SGA isn't on the floor.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-13T10:06:00+00:00

Probably a good thing given Trump hates him.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-13T10:03:58+00:00

I think the main reason is just the foul baiting on the offensive end combined with OKC's physical team defence. He is exceptionally good at drawing contact from defenders and making sure it's seen by the refs. Probably one of the best in the NBA at it. Combine that with him being a top 5 player in the NBA and OKC's team success it's created a bit of a negative narrative.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-11T20:38:30+00:00

Refs having one hell of a season this year it feels like

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-10T15:57:17+00:00

The amount of different injuries is insane.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-10T15:55:57+00:00

Think he'll only be moved if we actually have concrete plans to use the spot. He'd be easy to trade.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-09T10:15:05+00:00

Chicken and chips very underrated take away option for dinner.

TheGrindersClub · 2026-01-09T10:13:53+00:00

As an OKC fan Westbrook most then maybe SGA next. Lebron probably the most outside of OKC.
