    Okay, Portland got a "C". Fine. But I thought some of the justification for OKC getting a "D+" was funny:

    Shouldn't Portland get a half grade up for extra credit for sticking it to a division rival?

    Paul Allen's long-term strategy is to bankrupt all the other owners. He can afford higher salaries, and they can't. Someday we will win the Finals, uncontested.

    I think Mathews getting injured made us an F, as in F-ed, and from their Olshey gets a B for the re-tool. Had we landed Monroe it would have been an A.
