I have an information strategy to offer called reading RPM estimates. Prior to the Thunder's 2014-15 acquisitions they were all estimated badly negative on overall impact; and after acquisition (late season and this season) they are all still estimated badly negative. This estimate is generally supported by box score stats and the eye test too. Only Kanter is debatable imo. Foye is a repeat of this theme. I'd be happy to provide this analytic service to the organization. Or perhaps just give it further consideration. As impressive as the list of skills you seek is, it is less so when so many decisions fly in the face of a lot of what I consider credible public information.
