Could Sam Presti be making his "3rd Strike" decision with Donovan?

With reports that Oklahoma City is in "serious talks" with Flordia's Billy Donovan to become the next head coach of the Thunder, one has to wonder, is Sam Presti making his 3rd big mistake as the team's GM? 

Mistake 1 was letting James Harden go to Houston. If OKC keeps him, I think last and this year's results are different. 

Mistake 2 was Kendrick Perkins' ridiculous contract that kept him on the team WAY past his productive prime. Presti got lucky in being able to trade him off to Utah this year in the big 3 team trade that brought Enes Kanter and others to OKC. 

Colleges coaches with no previous NBA experience don't have the best track record, so why would Presti hire a guy like that when there are better options out there? 

Time will tell if this makes Presti look like a genius or sends him looking for another job. But of course, these are really just my random thoughts.

Could McGary be the piece the Thunder really needed?

Mitch McGary was pulled up from the Thunder's D League team, the OKC Blue, and made the most of his first game back. McGary put up 19 in 23 minutes in the Thunder's 131-108 victory over the Clippers this afternoon.

This leads the question, could he be the spark? I think so as he brings an energy that OKC has missed all season. If they can continue to get solid play from him and stay healthy, they could very well climb back into the playoffs and what team will really want to see a surging Thunder team in the first round...nobody.

Time will tell whether this first game back was a fluke or the start of a run, but again, these are really just my random thoughts.

I'm not so sure Scott Brooks should set down.

Let's face it, the Oklahoma City Thunder are not performing to expectations and lots of fans are starting to call for his head, including me. 

Scott keeps proving that they can't take care of business. I'm not sure he has any control of the locker room which means he has no real control whatsoever.

They have no true offensive scheme other than get the ball to KD or Wesbrook. This has bitten them in the butt in the past. 

Now, they are in jeopardy of not making the playoffs. If they don't, Presti will virtually have no choice but to fire his boy. 

In my opinion, we need a Poppovitch style coach who won't take any crap and has an offensive game plan. But again, really just my random thoughts.
