Just lol @ "the thudner don't have anything beyond this year."
They got about $85 million in new cap space, which is more to build on than what they would have had in the absence of these trades and assuming RUSS left.
Unless you're getting ready to defend a starting 5 of Christon, Oladipo, Roberson, Patterson, and Adams as a contender in the West, I'm not sure what the hell the "derr, now they got nothing past this year" argument is meant to accomplish.
Once Durant bailed, this is the best anyone could hope for.
*Scratch that, this is far better than anyone could hope for. If you could go back to the day after Durant's decision and say "a year from now you're looking at Westbrook, Roberson, George, Melo, and Adams," is there anyone in the world other than NML who wouldn't be impressed?
