So much for Kevin wanting to play for a contender.
but but but they might land jr smith
I doubt they land Smith. Letting Martin go was all about refusing to pay the tax and Smith is going to command something close to what Martin got.
People can criticize Martin all they want, but the bottom line is, Lamb is entirely unproven and Wright/Delfino (or whoever else of similar ilk they ultimately end up signing) can't create their own shot. Jackson can, but him next to Westbrook cramps their spacing.
So basically, they now have two scorers, neither of whom is a post up threat and on top of that, no discernible offensive system to help create easy shots in the playoffs when teams really have time to game plan for Durant and Westbrook. As talented, athletic, explosive and tireless as those two are, I think this makes the Spurs the clear top team in the West. It's not a massive gap and they're not immune to losing a series to them, but if they land Kirilenko, it's going to be extremely difficult for the Thunder to beat them, if they're healthy.
Yup okc goin after dorell wright
Hardly a big blow to OKC.
Spurs' ticket to the Finals punched again tbh
wolves looking like a decent team next season...if Love and Rubio can stay healthy.
Spurs lucked out overall...
They should of kept Harden and moved Ibaka at the right time. They have no bench and little money to do so unless the Amnesty Perkins or move Sef for a scorer in maybe an S&T (like Red )
They need a couple of more wings and the can be a playoff squad depending on whether Howard stays in L.A or moves to Dallas or Houston.
lmao @ letting go of your best playmaker to get a one year rental of KMart
OKC still has the refs. They just didn't have westbrook to go into the middle last year to get those phantom calls.
OKC aren't top 4 anymore.
I agree. Plus, I think N.Y has bird rights to Smith, they don't have them for Prigoni and Copeland. Smith can be re signed even on their tight budget. OKC can't promise him a big role like N.Y can or the money. Ibaka needs Westbrook to score, Perkins needs a miracle to be a passable offensive weapon. Collision is the best bench player they have and as a P&R guy, I don't think Jackson is gonna command the same respect Harden did running that. I actually think GSW could make a big leap. They didn't have a Lee & Bogut healthy at the same time. Thompson & Barnes seem like they can take a big jump in terms of production.
AK47 is versatile enough to guard and play both forward spots and would be a perfect backup to Kawhi and give us another big wing that we missed against Miami.
looks like durant is gonna go what lebron went through in cleaveland
I hope this is the case.
Who's left to replace him?
Rumors r they r targeting d.wright
And they traded away Harden why again???they single handily extended the Spurs le window another 2 years..
So true. Complete blotch by OKC. Good Lord.And they traded away Harden why again???
that wcf spurs/okc seems so long ago tbh...
wow, sucks to be a thunder fan!! i envied them last year because of that young talented core and now? hehe. hehehe. hehehehehehehe. i can't stop! he....hehe....sorry i'm trying....hehehehehehe........get it together. hehehehe, ok, ok i'm good, i'm good. i promise
No worries, DFish will gladly come back with a full bottle of geritol.
