Personally I’ve been saying for a while now that the Oklahoma City Thunder should move on from coach Scott Brooks and now it appears the team reportedly feels the same way. If they do decide to part ways with Brooks who will be his replacement? A major factor in the decision will be pleasing Kevin Durant who will become a free agent in 2016, and for that reason, UConn coach Kevin Ollie is reportedly being considered for the job.

NBA Report: OKC May Consider Trading Kevin Durant Next Season
By now I’m sure you’ve taken notice that Russell Westbrook is playing on another level. The Oklahoma City Thunder guard had five triple-doubles in six games and has recorded a total six triple-doubles in his last 15 games. AND on top of that, in the 9 games where he did NOT post a triple-double, he averaged 32.5 ppg, 9.3 apg and 8.5 rpg; absolutely outstanding numbers. Westbrook has been able to go on this rampage since Thunder star and reigning MVP Kevin Durant is injured. With Westbrook carrying the team now, some people think it may lead to a permanent position.
