The Thunder have a dilemma. The new NBA Collective Bargaining Agreement, which many hoped would protect small market teams from losing talent, could break up Oklahoma City's burgeoning dynasty. Signing both James Harden and Serge Ibaka to contract extensions seems impossible under the rules.

Outside of the rules? Well, now you’re talking.

C’mon. You know a “college atmosphere” like OKC knows something about throwing money around when it’s not allowed. I bet they know who to call. And when they do, he’ll become the first booster in NBA history.

That’s right -- the Thunder need a booster, as you’ll see in the latest episode of “Bomani & Jones.”
