    We were the worst team in the league last season and have nothing to show for it. What a complete and utter disaster. The Westbrook trade is up there with one of the worst trades of all-time. OKC and Presti are about to be contenders thanks to getting an elite talent in addition to what they are getting with their own 1st round pick. Get ready for another year of tanking. I guess Chet better be the real deal or something.

    Tillman screwed everything up. Even the Harden trade was trash. F****!

    It's okay, you can't draft Cade with the 5th pick anyway. Keep tanking

    This still isn't the worst that's yet to come. Things will continue to get worse before it starts getting better

    It was the NBA's intention to screw us all along. We were never going to get a top 4 pick. The NBA, the media - they all hate us and want us to fail.

    am I doing it right?

    I wouldn’t go that far. He for sure has a better build already. He’s got some skills and shot looks good. If Chet fills out (big if) he’s still the superior skillset, frame and prototype.

    I wouldn’t be mad at either pick
