Trade: [HOU/OKC] Russell Westbrook for Chris Paul and picks

[Hardcore Techno]

OKC being referred to now as "the greatest dynasty that never was".

Seems appropriate....I'm trying to find a hockey comparison.....would it be fair to call them the San Jose Sharks of the NBA? Seemed like they were always primed to take that next step, finally win a title, but it never happened and now they're stripping away parts.

Buffalo Bills.

Buffalo Bills.

The greatest dynasty that never was...5 HOF played on that team.

Buffalo Bills.

Being the only team to go to 4 SBs in a row is a dynasty to me.

I don't think the Rockets could win a ring with Paul so I won't question their part of the deal. As for OKC at first I thought they were building a dynasty. Then I realized that if they, the Clippers, and the Rockets finish in the top 15 they won't get the top 15 picks they need to build a dynasty. They may try to do the impossible and move Paul's contract, but even if they do Schroder can play point and I don't think they're bad enough to be a lottery team.
