Who Do We Love?

It's 50-50 which state this is, round or oblong.

Basketball or football.

The Thunder had the opportunity to capture the state's sports fans, but might have blown it by trading the beard. Successful chemistry is magical. It's hard to recapture. Without Harden, Durant is dribbling more and scoring less. Westbrook is more out of control than ever, casting about turnovers and wild shots in equal shares.

The rural media in OKC is outraged because it was rumored that Harden wanted to be in a bigger market, even though most of the yahoo media lives in Edmond or Norman.

What should OKC have done? Paid the star. Paid the tax.

It's early. Surely Durant will get the message that he should score, not baby Westbrook.

The Lakers look pitiful. Nash couldn't guard a ref. San Antonio is said to be aging for the 20th consecutive year.

With OU having settled into its medium game win routine, and with OSU sinking fast, the state's sports heart is up for grabs.

We will love OU again next year until they lose a game. Its all about who is winning. The Thunder traded their chances away.
But What Do I Know? (3 months ago)
Thunder will be fine. If the Beard leaving is the downfall of the team then the other players, including Durant and Westbrook, aren't as good as we thought.

Don't play around with a chemistry set.

Agreed, talent is not everything.
