The Thunder need to keep a star at the PG position. It makes things easier on Durant. A guy like Stephen Curry would be nice.
Westbrook showed me something. he really is an NBA player. Pound the rock. Dont pass til theres 5 seconds left on the shot clock. Nice job.

Tbh I'm still a Westbrook fan but yeah I agree with this. Durant is not a big assist guy so they need someone who can create easy shots for others. Maybe a big can do that by drawing doubles though I guess would be the counterargument.
I'm sure other Spur fans have pointed this out but TP was benched repeatedly in the playoffs around the same age for Speedy Claxton and developed into a stud.
Benched for very different reasons. Sebastian Telfair has been benched before. A lot of PGs have been benched.
Only problem is that there aren't any low post players out there that are better than Westbrook, outside of Howard.
We live in a ty era of big man, so I don't see how it would be possible to trade for a low post player of equal value
Westbrook is singlehandedly burying the OKC team. I really want Parker traded but I would not trade him for this ballhog.
The real problem is Brooks. He is getting exposed big time by Carlisle.
The guy is just a terrible X's and O's coach. Durant didn't even touch the ball 18 out of 27 possessions in the 4th. Even though you put some on Durant, how does a coach not see that? Brooks just seems like one of those motivators who says "C'mon guys we're a great team, now let's go play like it!!" and does almost nothing else
"star at the PG position" like it's a good thing
The one positive for him in that regard is that he says he will allow his players some leeway if they play hard and how thats the most important thing to him. There are drooling stories (written by Bill Simmons and others) about how hard they play and practice. If you bring in some Larry Brown or Scott Skiles type who runs like a regimented system the players always get disgusted with the micromanaging after a while. ideally you'd like someone like maybe Adelman but then a lot of Rick's teams were mediocre on defense I think.
ITT: Laker fan desperately hoping for a team to cast off it's young PG so they can buy him on the cheap and have a tiny shot at winning a le next year.
finds your at ude distasteful.
But still proves my point
finds your at ude distasteful.
Hence me posting Starbury, AKA agreeing with you.

Ego and a big one.. This guy wants to be the star in OKC and may wreck their chances at winning a few rings by not getting along with Durant..
Westbrick.
Thunder shot themselves in the foot with the horrid shooting in the first. Mavs defense was solid but they missed a ton of open, hittable shots and next thing you know they were getting raped.
Gee, where have I seen that before.
KD has to take some blame for that too.
Having a star player at the PG position is a bad thing?
God, I hope this becomes an argument. If it does, please use a lot of advanced stats _Jag.
lol advanced stats geeks
And there is no argument here, the last 20 years make it that way.
What about the last 10 years?
How many teams with "star" PGs have made the Finals? How many "star" PGs have played in the finals over the last 10 years?
