After a much-needed hiatus, we are back with plenty to talk about. I have to admit the NBA does have the best playoff system, even if it seems nearly every series is threatening to go seven. That is because the teams involved are not letting anything get in their way, much like what Oklahoma City needs to do next month.
The Thunder nearly won/stole the Griffin Lotto but are positioned nicely at number three. They jumped past Sacramento and Washington, two teams with many more question marks than the league's newest franchise. All of this is setting up for an exciting roller-coaster of events.
Carbert and I will be debating options from now until Draft night, as OKC holds multiple options. My current favorite is the looking backward approach, where the Thunder target a team with a veteran shooting guard. They can then pull off a trade and better the team in the present and the future.
Enjoy the Holiday Weekend everyone and let's get ready for some Summer Basketball!
