    We had the most injured season ever. 2009-10. We had at least 8 surgeries off the top of my head: Oden, Przybilla, Rudy, Outlaw, Roy, Pendergraph, Mills, and Nate McMillan. At one point, our star players were Howard and Bayless and the only players on our bench were Cunningham and Blake. Every player but Miller and Webster succumbed to some injury or illness. Still, we won 50 games. The Thunder and Rockets have never been through anything like that. One injury plagued team I remember that was delightful was in 2013 when the Lakers lost all 4 of their guards (Kobe, Nash, Meeks, and Blake). They had to call up Goudelocke and Morris to start in the playoffs. They were of course swept by the Spurs.

    Um, haven't all OKC "fans" just become NBA fans? By far the most entitled fan bases I have ever seen, got handed a team with KD and RW, then their first year in the draft got Harden.

    In all fairness, the yokel probably only started watching the NBA when OKC stole the Sonics.

    This is not Westbrook but shows what most likely happened to his face.

    I wonder how long he would be out with that kind of fracture. Or is it just a mask and back to the court after a few games.

    None of them will care about their team when Durant and Westbrook bolt anyway, back to the corn fields.
