Isn't it common sense to say you need to draft well, trade well, and sign FAs well? At least 2 out of 3...

And of course you need luck.

I would think so.

But then the Lakers singlehandedly ruin Wiggy’s case.

Because he has criticized how portly they have drafted. Then I believe he might have criticized the Lakers for giving so much in the AD trade. And he also said FAs would not want to play with LeBron and has criticized some of the signings they made this summer.

For the record, if I have to pick how, I don’t think they will win this season. But they are clearly on the short list of favorites. And Wiggy has argued recently that they have done all 3 of those things poorly.

Wiggy has lost a lot of cred lately. Not just this week but pretty much ever since the Finals his posts have been almost uniformly awful. It's not fun, I prefer my trolls to at least be challenging.

Really should have made a separate thread for the Westbrook/CP3 deal. There's too many posts about here. What about those of us that wanted to talk about Marcus Morris! Or even better, how Grayson Allen is still a fucking little bitch

Kid has a fucking mental problem.

Fuck you get kicked out of Summer League?!?!?

That was like his 3rd or 4th dirty hit too. He sucked ass in the game as well. Just waive his ass. He's clearly not an NBA player

Goddamn

Pokemon indeed!

As a Thunder fan, it is very difficult to see any brightside to losing all the talent we've had at one time or another.

But in some strange way...personally, the release of Russ feels like the Ancient Mariner as the albatross finally falls from his neck.

Onward and upward...gotta have faith in Presti and Donovan. Billy doesn't have the Diva Syndrome as a crutch any longer so lets see what he can do with a TEAM.

Thunder are going to be stuck with CP3 for the next 2 seasons it seems

OKC has so many 1st rounders that I think a team hoping to make a leap to the Finals might bite and make a deal for him at the deadline. CP3 + a 1st rounder would be enough to entice a team. Getting a 1st rounder with it would make eating that salary a lot more palatable, especially if they're desperate and/or really think it's that final piece (ala Sheed to Detroit). OKC could use it as an opportunity to get more flexible assets back in return.

I would have respected Marcus Morris if he said it was about the money. Instead he "wanted to do what's best for his family". Yeah i'm sure moving from city to city every year is good for the family.

What do you think @10HtownRebs?

Best one two punch in the NBA next year!!

Ok ok... LOL. Let me be real... 2nd best one two punch in the NBA next year.

Second to Lebron and AD...

KD out next year... Thompson out half the year..

Kawhi and George is right there with them.

The big mystery is how Harden and Russ will play together. Russ is the big question mark. If he try to come in and run the team and be the man it won't work... But Harden has to take a back seat at times and let Russ shine... So it will be a sticky situation but hopefully they can let their pride down for the teams sakes. They have played together before and know what to expect... Neither one has a championship so both should be willing to do whatever it takes to try and make a run..

Russ is 4 years younger than Paul and extends the window for Harden and the Rockets window to win a championship... So who knows. There's a lot of doubters that say we can't play together but only time will tell..

Adding Russ sent the Rockets' odds to win the 2019-20 NBA title from 10-1 to 7-1, behind the Los Angeles Lakers (7-2), LA Clippers (4-1) and Milwaukee Bucks (9-2).

Psycho T is still the GOAT of them breed.

 

[msgkings322]

So basically Kawhi beat the Dynasty Dubs, then single handedly blew up the Thunder, all in a few weeks. It's his fucking league now, or rather he is officially battling LeBron for Big Chief of the NBA

This image is the epitome of douche bag

I said before there are two people that just by their looks you want to punch in the face / kick their ass:
Adam Silver
Justin Bieber

Well add Grayson Allen to that list

It is always ok to talk about Grayson Allen being a little bitch. That should go one every thread.

Here are the 2 flagrants on Grayson Allen... that guy is one b!tch-made piece-of-work.

LMAO what a piece of shit. You think being coached by Coach K he would have learned, this kid has anger problems and mental issues

I don't know that I've ever seen a more immature player... these reactions he has to contact and his facial expressions afterwards remind me of my 5 yo and 3 yo sons.

 

[Heatles84]

Doesn't that mean 'technicality' Iguodala is an allstar too?

One-time all star. Cousins has been a consistent all-star up until his injury.

He was going to be a free agent next year either way. I respect his decision.
