Regarding player development, the Thunder are CLEARLY top-notch. They developed Green, Harden, and the players that are still on the roster. While Aldrich was clearly a horrible mistake from the get-go, they rectified it by dealing him away. I'm also not sure the Perk/Green trade was a win, but Perk has served a role.
While the other players will hopefully continue to develop, I'm too much of a Royals fan to appreciate trading away top talent for what could be. Harden is a top-10 player in the league.

To say I rationalize every move is the same to say I'm sucking his hypothetical dick IMO. I'm not mad at ya. Im just pointing out i don't blindly defend him. I'm a Royals fan as well, but that isn't a good comparison in my opinion. They still have talented players on the roster, and feel they need something besides Harden to get them over the top. I tend to agree, and understand that piece may not be there yet. I don't think we are winning the title this year, but I don't feel Harden would have made a difference in that regard. However, we still have a punchers chance, and will be set up very well for the next 3 years.
If we were the Royals everyone would be gone
