Wonder how the spurs will match up against okc now..thunder got better but they're not at the same level as the dubs. Westbrook-PG-Melo-pat-adams lineup is definitely going to cause some problems

Looking ahead to playoffs, this gives GSW a real challenge in the 2nd round.
Either Houston or now Okc should be able to take them 6 games minimum before the Spurs see them in the WCF.
OKC at least won't be able to dominate the Spurs on the boards with Kanter and Adams. There big man rotation now is even worse than the Spurs.Quote:

He always kills whoever we put in front of him, their role players always play out of their mind while ours shit the bed, and their bigs - especially Adams - out-rebound our bigs every time (which should be exacerbated this year even after losing Kanter when you consider we have only two legitimate bigs this year, one of them being a soft, low stamina Spaniard).Quote:

Yes because trading for a glorified fat ass chucker is great deal.Quote:

They have Roberson and George to throw at Kawhi just in the starting lineup alone. Just picturing Patty Mills and brick feet Green try and guard them hurts my head :lol

This move could easily put them past the Spurs if it works out. Stop trying to downplay it.Quote:

Winning by subtraction
Not as optimistic as you. Although it was one game, in the one game against us without Kanter last year, the Spurs still gave up 12 offensive rebounds, were even on the boards, while Adams had a double-double. Pau didn't play, sure, but the game was close the whole way through, and the Spurs still let even Domantas fucking Sabonis grab 10 boards. Also, Melo is going to out-rebound any 4 we have other than Aldridge.Quote:

God the Thunder land Melo for Anal Kancer and meanwhile RC reups Gasoft and Eddie House.
People are just looking at their roster, but refusing to take a hard look at ours. Anus Kancer is gone, sure, but we have no legitimate rebounders other than a fat LMA:lol and an ancient Pau. Melo is still going to out-rebound any big we have at the 4 (Fathead, Gay, Bertans) not named LMA. :lolQuote:
