Yep
Healthy Perk + Nazr + slam dunk champion = not bad
I know everyone is making a big deal out of the Perkins trade, but playing Ibaka at the PF has completely changed them defensively. This is a dangerous team. Very dangerous and now physical in the paint.

Im starting to think that SA would rather want Dallas at the #4 seed haha. OKC wears you out cuz they run so damn much. They actually played better with Perk on the bench but he'll be needed to defend well in the postseason.
Did I hear right? Thought I heard Hubie's partner (forgot his name) on the broadcast say that Ibaka's got 19 blocks in the last 3 games?
Wow!
It will take Perk some time to get in shape, but I think he and Ibaka gives them a lethal duo in the paint. Limited offense, but it doesn't matter with Durant, Harden, and Westbrook on the perimeter. Wow, what potential this team has.
Ordinarily I would be very impressed if McGee didn't block the out of my team last night. He ended the night with 12
If the Mavs and Thunder are smart, they'll make a gentleman's arrangement to switch playoff seeds. At this point, I think Thunder have the best chance to beat the Lakers in the 2nd round IMO. Mavs and Spurs are better suited for meeting Lakers in the WCF if either of them can get their together in time.
If OKC's smart, they're gonna try to matchup with the Spurs as soon as possible.
I'm actually starting to hope Dallas starts winning to stay in LA's bracket.
I still think they're 4th, but barring injuries and upsets, this should be one of the best WCSF in a long time..
Not gonna lie, this OKC team scares me more than the Lakers.
No team in the NBA is this athletic, now only if they got some more chemistry with the front line acquisitions..... Watch out.
Scary good.
they won't even beat the Nuggets
Book it !
Spurs match up incredibly well with okc... I rather have them then Dallas but I doubt Dallas will get out of the first round if they play portland, maybe even New Orleans if they are healthyIf OKC's smart, they're gonna try to matchup with the Spurs as soon as possible.
They matched up with OKC well before the Green-Perkins trade. They're a much different team now and with Perk and Ibaka in the paint, the perimeter guys can swarm the Spurs guards.
Why you wishing such evil on our season? OKC isn't getting by the Lakers if they take the Spurs spot in the WCF, that's deep water and those boys aren't swimming in it with the Lakers. OKC needs to go at LA in the 2nd round!If OKC's smart, they're gonna try to matchup with the Spurs as soon as possible.
I'm not wishing any evil on anyway.
I do think OKC matches up well with most teams now with Perk and Ibaka in the paint, including the Lakers. Honestly, WCF semis should be great.
OKC's problem is obviously that Artest absolutely owns Durant..I don't see how that would change..I guess if Perkins is healthy, his screen-setting may open things up, but it doesn't help that Scott Brooks is an idiot that kept going to isolation plays in the playoffs, last year..
Green actually gave the Spurs trouble, I think the spurs are a nightmare matchup for OKC they really don't have any one to step up on our outside shooters, especially Bonner who has killed them this season if he shows up in the playoffs, and Manu and Parker haven't had a problem with Ibaka this season, I seriously doubt Perkins will give much of a difference besides the fact he really doesn't have a offense game, and can stretch the floor like Green did, that's the only problem spurs had. Bring on OKC 6 games the most.
LMAO Sonics fans
Dallas is a much better matchup for SA IMO. OKC's bigs might not be great on offense but these ers jump all over the place to grab boards. Duncan, Blair, Bonner & Dice might have a tough time keeping up with that pace over a long series.
I'm sure no one will be looking forward to playing OKC in the playoffs.
