Thunder Drafted 3 Future MVPs and Blew It by Losing 2 of Them

(1/4) > >>

CelticsElite:
Anyone else have trouble wrapping around the fact that thunder drafted 3 future MVPs (durant, harden, Westbrook) , and they ended up only keeping 1 (the worst of the bunch)? That is a major GM and organizational failure

Its hard to comprehend because obtaining one mvp is hard enough for a team but they grabbed 3

KGs Knee:
OKC screwed up by trading Harden.  If they were going to trade any one of the three, they should have traded Westbrook.  Had OKC kept Harden instead of Westbroook, they probably would have kept Durant too.

If they had kept the 3 of them together they'd have multiple rings (possibly even one before they had to pay Harden). That team was ridiculously young when they made the finals, if they could have hit their prime together... wow

early on ....i could see he was easy next best to KD.   Ibaka was the odd man out for me .  Green seemed like a sure thing , but a waste of talent

CelticSooner:
$4 million a year was the difference for OKC ownership. The 30 for 30 that team should be good.
