Gallant Fields was major news. No one runs on one day of rest.

Don't be bitter because that money hungry franchise you stole from a respectable city like Seattle traded Harden for a stick of gum because they didn't want to pay him.

They got two first round draft picks, and at least one will be a lottery pick, for a player they could not possibly resign. Plus, they saved the year long " when should we trade him " headache. It was a GREAT trade for OKC.

It really is a good trade. Martin will bring scoring, Lamb is very talented, and they get two 1st and a 2nd from Charlotte, which is 99% to be the 1st pick in the 2nd round. Further, they got rid of two bad players with guaranteed contracts in Hayward and Cook.

Anytime you get even close to real value for a player you need to trade, or lose for nothing, it's a good trade. This was a great move by OKC.

The NBA is completely unwatchable in any format.

It's a star league and Harden is a young star.

Losing a guy who was the 3rd overall pick in the Blake Griffin draft and who has lived up to it is obviously something that can put a fan on tilt.

As evidence by the fact that 'For fans of PETA' by Indian Charlie was no included in this poll.

Spurs and Mavericks had lesser known stars and they prevailed. There are too many fans that would rather see a superstar fail than succeed.

I would rather watch a preseason NBA game than a MLB playoff game any day
