Best current point guard? Definitely.

Best current player? Not as long as Lebron is still Lebron. I will say though, that if we're talking "pound for pound" like in boxing...a solid argument can be made.

One of the best point guards of all-time? He's definitely headed in that direction, but he's got a loooong way to go to be mentioned in the same breath as Magic.

I agree he has a lot of work left to do. But there hasn't been a player since Kobe in his prime that's had this combination of skill and desire. And I hate Kobe.

Agree 100%. Dude is fun as heck to watch too. I was enjoying watching him yesterday, even though he was kicking the Lakers collective asses practically all by himself.

You like that Olidipo deal?

Yes. Ibaka never developed into a top PF like he could have and Sabonis should be a good solid PF. Olidipo still needs to develop but the Thunder might be able to help him more than the Magic did.

No...I mean his extension.

4 years 84 million.

Oh I hadn't seen that. But yes. If that's the deal they got him for and if they get Adams for the 100 I've seen then they have done a really good job of signing some good young talent under the max.

Congrats, Dude.

I know it feels good to have that piece of mind.

I'm gonna be sweating bullets all Season long.

Think you'll resign Blake or trade him?

Well, he's one of those guys that loves the LA lifestyle.

But, he and Paul are hot and cold.

If they traded him, it would have to be for a Love, Aldridge, Milsap type.

Otherwise, it's almost better to let him walk or get picks.

If they did that, they'd have cap to chase a Milsap, Ibaka as a replacement.

If I had to guess, I'd say he takes the near 30 mil and stays.

I'm on the fence about CP3.

I agree that he loves LA. I don't see him coming back to OKC. Aldridge is interesting. CP3 was in OKC for a few years, he seems like a primadonna.

He's a screamer.

Millionaire Men don't like being screamed at by a guy a foot shorter....lol

I kinda get CP3. He plays with a roster full of underachieving divas with zero heart.

Yeah, he can hit some shots.

Looks like Adams will be locked up too at 4/100-106.

Thunder taking care of business.

So these deals that just happen all but make it impossible to get a big time free agent now. May not be a bad thing as these young players are getting better but getting a Blake Griffin is unattainable now.

Yep.

Only way to get a Milsap, Griffin is by trade.

Unless you're giving up Westbrook, which would never happen, good luck.
