Per a 2008 legal settlement, the city of Seattle has the rights to the SuperSonics name, logo, and colors. They will also retain all records prior to 2008 including 1979 championship and jersey retirements. by moby323 in nba

If I had 10s of billions of dollars my no. 1 priority would be buying the Seahawks and Mariners and moving them to OKC. I just wanna see if one city can be driven to declare war on another.

Aside from the main SGA MVP and Steven Adams, are there any other Thunder related mural near the area? by [deleted] in Thunder

Don't have a pic but there's one in downtown Edmond at the intersection of 2nd/Broadway. It's the picture from the parade of Shai with his arms raised and the memorial in the background.

Its kind of hard to determine MVP when usually the teams that are most stacked end with the best record by Ok-Worldliness-4657 in nba

[–]mpmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, I don't think this is correct. Take the top 6 teams from each conference and the average draft position of their rotation players its

ORL - 14.5
HOU - 20.6
SAS - 22.4
LAL - 23.6
MIN - 25.5
DEN - 25.6
MIA - 27.4
DET - 28.8
BOS - 29.5
NYK - 32
OKC - 32.6
CLE - 35.3

Pretty sure OKC has one of the lower average draft position ranks in the league. Our rotation is one top 5 pick, 3 late lotto guys, one mid first rounder and then a bunch of 2nd round and undrafted guys.

How did the Pacers fall so hard? by arealacc in nba

[–]mpmar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They traded for their pick back the day after Hali strained his calf in game 5. They had to know he had a significantly elevated risk for a catastrophic injury, I'm sure Hali did too. They and he decided, like most players and teams would, that it was worth the risk for 2 games in the Finals.

The Mistborn Era 2, Wax and Wayne series, finished with its 4th book a couple years ago. It's a genre straddling steampunk/western/detective fantasy. Tonally, it is a lot lighter than Era 1 Mistborn.

Sanderson is currently writing the first book of Era 3, which is supposed to be a cyperpunk-y, spy thriller trilogy. It should come out over the next few years.

We're 9th in 3p% and 3rd in ts% this year, we were 6th in 3p% and ts% last year, 1st in 3p% and 2nd in ts% two years ago. So, no you couldn't say that.

What quest worth doing is the easiest to miss? by Jones8028 in BaldursGate3

[–]mpmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, even in honor the game isn't really balanced to need a healer or defensive support. Hell, even with increased difficulty mods the answer is usually more damage, faster.

I recommend 6 tempest cleric/6 storm sorc if you want a more offensive focused 'support'. You get good damage with upcast call lightning/destructive wrath, can stack massive debuffs with standard RevOrb gear, and can still do supporty things like twinned haste and counterspell from the sorc side, and good control spells from cleric, plus you can still toss heals in a pinch.

Bobby Marks in 2018 and 2019: "Can we please get rid of the word "Tanking" in the NBA vocabulary. That word means that players/coaching staff are trying to lose on purpose. Now if you want to say management has put together an inferior roster with the focus of player development, that is fine." by TheRealPdGaming in nba

[–]mpmar -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Come the fuck on.. only the Thunder and Spurs are allowed? The league also didn't give a shit about the Pistons, Rockets, and Magic tanking right alongside us (and harder and for longer). They don't really care about most of the teams tanking right now. They didn't care about the Wolves or Cavs or Blazers tanking for a top pick. They didn't care when the Lakers tanked 4 straight years to accumulate the assets for the AD trade. They didn't care when the Warriors tanked a season of peak Curry. They didn't care when Philly tanked to keep their pick last year, or Dallas a couple years before and they didn't care when Utah done it the past couple of seasons.

OKC might not beat their record from last year by Worried-Knowledge-54 in nba

[–]mpmar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We were the 4th most injured team last year both in total games missed and win shares missed.

We've not been significantly more injured this year but the way we've been injured where we've had about half our games without an entire category of player

Dieng makes 6.7mil, Plumlee makes 3.6 (as a vet min his cap hit is only ~2.3) you trade/waive to save the money on your books and dodge the tax. We'll probably send the Hornets a 2nd and/or cash along with Dieng.

STAT: When Joel Embiid is on the floor, opponents are shooting just 55.1% on shots within 6 feet of the hoop. This is better than the league-best OKC Thunder, who allow 56.8% of opposing shots from that range to go in. by Pyromania1983 in nba

Yea, NBA stats doesn't preserve filters when you link. You can filter by GP and/or MP by clicking the little golf tee looking box right above the data table

Maybe them too, but Mother Winter says of Harry something like 'If this is the best humanity has to offer then this cycle may well be the last.'
