    I couldn’t be happier with our coach, as a fan. Mark actually cares to give us honest answers, and he always drops wisdom if you listen to what he’s actually saying. How he thinks about the game is very unique for an NBA coach from what I can tell.

      I'm here since the comeback against the Clippers in the 2014 playoffs, It's the reason I started to route for this team, they never give up.

    It's just occurring to me now that Bruce Brown would be a greta pick up for them. CHampionship experience, does everything, gritty, and won't take away at all from your stars. His contract is heavy this year, but you send Bertans over with picks and then you have team option for next year.

    People actually gonna learn how to spell his name soon. He’s been the best kept secret in the league since he got hired

    It's a very Miami Heat-esque hire. Took the same route developing a coach as developing and building the team.

    Fred Katz looks like he’s in a safe room, does this pod contain dangerous information 😅

    They need someone who can rebound, though. They dont need a big trade, but they definitely need to add some rebounding.

    • @charlescohen6140
      @charlescohen6140 8 місяців тому

      What happens to 21 year-olds is they physically mature. For instance, Chet at 22 and 23 will be bigger, stronger and a much better rebound. They will either draft a big or less likely a trade. But don’t expect something dramatic unless they can pu a Day’ron Sharpe from a clueless franchise. He is the prototypical big man who somehow only gets 12-15 minutes from coach Jacques. Or perhaps Isaiah Stewart.

    • @bigdaddydzzzzzz

      We play five out. Our lack of rebounding allows us to lead the league in contested shots and deflections. It is a gameplan. Listen to Mark's interviews about it. It obviously isn't hurting us, we are stomping teams. You don't just add a random rebounder unless they can space the floor and handle the ball. It isn't worth it.

    • @charlescohen6140
      @charlescohen6140 8 місяців тому

      Thanks. And realistically is near impossible to find that rebounder who can fit in with the play. Obviously, Poku has disappointed and Ousmane is still not there. It sounds easier than it is.. Day’ron Sharpe if available.@@bigdaddydzzzzzz

    Guys they haven't accomplished anything yet. Dated back when OKC had Duran, Westbrook, Harden upsetting the favourite Spurs in the playoff after trailing 0-2 by winning 4 games in a roll, people started to talk about them winning NBA title but they failed.
    It's not until they win the last game of the final series just like what Billie Bean referred to his team's failure. People will eventually forget all these good things.
    People also talked a lot of good things about Scott Brooks in his early days with OKC and what happened 4-5 years after that. High hope and expectation works both ways as we all know.

    I think Kelly Olynik would be a great fit. Start him and move Giddey to the bench!
