I didn't watch. I just followed the score. WTF happened to the Rockets? I don't mind seeing the Rockets win it all this year, but man their propensity to blow leads is concerning.

Did you see the Cp3 back to the Clippers speculation?


Lets ignore the elephant in the room, his contract.


There is zero chance you'd take Beverley after the Westbrook drama.

I won't even bother talking about Adams.

No way would OKC do another deal to help the Clippers.

What Trades Can Clippers Make to Get Kawhi Leonard, Paul George over the Hump?

wirh the Thunder knowing they have to shed $50m in salary next season they very well may become buyers at this point. They are playing well enough to consider it.

the Thunder got hot and just locked down the defense. Harden didn’t get a couple calls and was the little bitch that he is. Thunder are just the better team.

Thunder have been a nice surprise. I wouldn't mind seeing them win it all while the Warriors are on sabbatical.

As long as you ignored I´ve said for a while Green would be nothing special on this type of team and you disagreed......remember when you said a guy like Green could get a bad team like the Suns to playoff contender?

Here´s a flash.....when you are comparing 2 players you compare them as a whole. Not basing one of the 2 on what he might be able to do on a team that could be the perfect fit for him.

But at least we´ve established on bad teams Green = Nance, Jr.
All we've established is a couple of argumentative types going back and forth about semantics and vocabulary. The games got played, Dray's team won a lot more of them and he was as important as anyone to those titles.

But I do understand that you guys enjoy the endless sameness.

Have gotten you way more than once and each time this is the type of reply. Instead of just manning up and owning it, you also try to add on to it to take away from your huge gaffe.

Love is a better player than Green. Always has been. Because Green might be better for one team does not prove your point. Never will.

But die on that hill, my friend.

Not for winning championships he isn't.

Trying to decide what is worse....you just not owning up to your flawed comments or someone else claiming you a winner for those comments.

You do get this was the whole point of these conversations from my end? Sure, with elite players around him on O and D Green is a nice role player. On a bad team (or really nearly any other team) he is nothing special.

Nope.

Love might (might) have been the better player in some bygone era of the NBA where lateral quickness in a big was less important.

But if we're talking today's game... Draymond is better piece to have if a team is building towards a championship. And I don't really think that's arguable. They are different players, of course... so one or the other might fit better in a specific situation... but that's a separate issue. Draymond's defense and versatility is invaluable in today's game... and it's a skill that only becomes more important in the playoffs.

Neither are #1's, obviously.

This is pretty obvious but dt gonna dt

You said Green was a better player than Love. You were wrong.
Actually the answer to the pretty broad question of who is 'better' comes down to 'it depends'

'Better' for what? Putting up numbers or winning rings?

It would be kinda perfect if Thunder won a title without their former big three and with Chris Paul laughing at everyone.

32,11, & 12 on 16-24 shooting is bad now?

Harden is the issue with the Rockets right now

How do you as a coach allow Harden to shoot 17 threes? He only made 1.

At some point as a coach, you have to pull the player if he keep shooting 3's this often when he can't throw it in the ocean

Harden is a two trick pony. His game is simply about making 3's/getting to the free throw line. When one of those is off then he is a mediocre player
