I just dont think you guy are ready for playoff. Way too green and an imbalanced roster. Too many of the same type of player, and until they can shoot its going to be tough to win playoff series. Regular seasons dont mean much, I don't think you guys would go 6 with Boston right now

Yeah they have a nice core but when they are ready to win a ring I don’t think half of those guys will be on the team. I don’t think guys like Fox, Kelden Johnson or Harrison Barnes are gonna be on that team when they are ready.
 
SGA, the soon to be back to back MVP, just set a new record with 127 straight games of 20+ points. And in 35 of those games….he didn’t even play in the 4th quarter because they were winning by so much.

You know that you are the greatest player in the league when you break a 65 year old Wilt Chamberlain record.

Greatest player “in the league” part is going to start expanding. Never seen anyone score with the ease that he does. He didn’t have the 3 ball last year but does now. He scores with ease at all
levels and shoots a ridiculously high %. And he’s not like a lot of great scorers, he actually makes his team better with his defense and assists. If he gets another couple of rings and people are going to be forced to start debating “all time”

Best part is the Clippers didn't see that and traded him. Freaking Clippers. Forever the laughing stock of the NBA.

Paul George was fools gold. Great player who will put up stats when he’s not injured (often) but you’re not going to win with him as a team. OKC was brilliant to trade him and get a haul. Almost like the Herschel Walker trade. Was looking like OKC was getting another lottery pick this year out of the deal but probably not now.

George would have been a great piece of he could settle into a complementary role on offense, but he never could. He had a great two way game, but if he wasnt the focal point of an offense, his offense didnt influence winning like it should.

Where the Thunder struck gold was that that trade was all about Leonard and bringing the Clips back to relevance. Good organizations praying in bad ones is the backbone of NBA team building

Agree, when a team pays as much for Paul as they were paying him they expect him to be the lead dog and he’s just not that

It’s the closest thing we’ve seen to the Hershel Walker deal yet no one talks about it.

Dylan Harper tearing it up in his first start. Don't get me wrong, would have loved to drafted Flagg. Team would be set, but Dylan Harper looking like he'll grow into a career all star too. Crazy how all these young guys have quickly developed into that same unselfish team mentality they were known for in the Duncan, Ginobilli, Parker days.

Yeah it’s wild. He also was what the 11th overall pick? Nobody saw it coming.

The OKC front office is the absolute best in the league…..and it isn’t even close. Sam Presti knew that he was fleecing the Clippers.

It doesn’t take a genius to select a player like Wemby. But to make the Paul George / SGA trade and then turn many of those picks into stars….
It takes a special front office.

And OKC keeps adding up and coming stars via trades like McCain. They will be a dynasty for years to come.
