Big Three (Oklahoma City Thunder)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Per comments made here, a discussion on the notability of this "Big Three" seems warranted. Some routine coverage obviously exists on the players but term "Big Three" has been exhausted and it is too soon to access the notability of this "Big Three", which may only exist for one season.

 * Delete Agree with The Slick wholeheartedly. Not enough coverage, just Okies shooting big. :) L3X1 Become a New Page Patroller! (distænt write)  00:03, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Sources As mentioned in the deprod, there were sources already listed at Talk:Big Three (Oklahoma City Thunder). I'm relisting those here for convenience, as well as some additional ones.  These are not routine game recaps.

 * Delete hype for the sports pages/websites of no lasting importance or encyclopedic value. Legacypac (talk) 23:48, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. The trio have not lasted long enough, nor acquired enough winning impact together, to warrant their own page. If George, Anthony, and Westbrook are together for several more seasons of significant success, then maybe. In essence, the article is too premature at best.

 * Merge to 2017–18 Oklahoma City Thunder season. The topic arguably meets WP:GNG based on sources identified above. The trio has received good coverage, and they have often been referred to as the "Big Three".  However,  having played together half a season with little other accomplishments to date, this is too early when it can be WP:PRESERVEd at the season article. This is consistent with WP:N, which states that GNG "is not a guarantee that a topic will necessarily be handled as a separate, stand-alone page. Editors may use their discretion to merge or group two or more related topics into a single article." No prejudice to reconsider a standalone article if the grouping is still covered next season, when it would not fit into one season's article anymore.—Bagumba (talk) 13:04, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
