    Also, Durant re-signed with OKC as a free agent.

    It's kind of a trick question because most all of the teams play in a big market. That's how they can afford to have a team.

    Mo Williams was an All Star and he signed with us.

    Resigning is different.

    It seems when players actually get to small market teams, a lot of them love it.

    He didn't have to sign it though. He could've become a free agent if he wanted but he chose to stay with OKC.

    It's all moot. We have a contending team with who we have. I don't want to disrupt chemistry next season.

    Teams aren't static entities. All rosters see turnover every year.

    In 08/09

    For an example, Kaman was an all-star in 09/10

    First of all, "bad weather" is subjective. Secondly, no one said "All-NBA", they said "veterans or superstars"

    Making everything you post more negative than it has to be has to get old for you.. I know it's somewhat fucking annoying to read every day.

    I'm not sure how much 40-60 degrees and rainy for the entire season is subjective :)

    Doesn't have to be that way.

    . McCollum has been with team since summer league and is on the bench for every game. He is part of the team. His offense will be welcome once he is healthy. But we don't need a new personality in the locker room. Remember Rod Strickland in 2001? KILLED our chemistry.

    I personally love that kind of weather. So yes, it's subjective.

    Sunny and clear today (and 30's) . . . must not be NBA season.

    I wonder if players would rather have warm and smoggy or cold and clean air?

    There is a Bi-Polar and depression joke itching to be typed, but I digress.

    How are you, by the way (not trying to derail, just curious and wont speak any more of it)

    I would say the latter, given players love for LA, Miami
