Mark Bruty: I’m excited. Not just for Carmelo Anthony the basketball player, but for what this means for OKC as a city and as a franchise. Having someone actively drop their no-trade clause is HUGE for the Thunder. We haven’t been able to land big name free agents, and have often struggled to put ourselves on the map – even with a contending roster – so this is big. Then it turned quickly to just how exciting this team is going to be.
R.K. Anthony: About the same as my reaction to the Paul George news.
