“Only person that I see that is not sustainable there is probably Giddey and not because of the trouble just because he is a point guard like he’s a point guard that actually can’t shoot the ball at all right. He’s a playmaker rebounder and I don’t really need that.”Read More: Ex-Warrior Jordan Poole Receives Warm Welcome at Chase Center Despite Ugly Break-UpOklahoma City Thunder won the West Conference Championship against San Antonio Spurs in six games in 2012.

“(OKC) was trying to sign Serge (Ibaka) and then (James Harden), not realizing he is the most important piece. And then you got outbid and you couldn’t afford him. All it cost you was $4 million a year, to keep him.”
