Good luck with Harkless and Leonard. Both solid character guys but Harkless is a wing who shoots like a center and Leonard is a center who can shoot like a wing every so often.Good riddance. Whiteside needed to go.
Cool. I believe Harkless is heading to the Clippers when all this gets sorted to complete the Butler trade.Good luck with Harkless and Leonard. Both solid character guys but Harkless is a wing who shoots like a center and Leonard is a center who can shoot like a wing every so often.
Why did the Thunder make the trade, if they thought they could win a title with Westbrook?Smh...dude stayed in OKC an extra year because of Westbrook, but ok.
Clippers are officially in play now, they got a great team for once, not something fraudulent...
And it worked out so well.Because George told them he wanted to be traded. Back in March it came out that they were talking about free agency. He, like Kawhi, wanted to be in LA for awhile now, that guy you're trying to **** on is what convinced him to try it another year in OKC.
-Having now chased away 3 superstar teammates, I'd say Westbrook is the problem in OKC.
So did Curry/Draymond chase away Durant too? Dude is the most sensitive player of his generation, how is he still unhappy in GS of all places? The narrative about this is already getting ridiculous, I just want some clarity. I could've swore GS was supposed to be everything Durant wanted, they play so well and everyone shares and it's Basketball bliss. So what happened? Sounds like he was the main issue in the locker room, with no Westbrook in sight.
Also, if reports are true that Durant told Westbrook personally he was coming back only to dip the next day, how is that ok? Durant bails again, are we not holding anyone accountable for that? I barely see it as any kind of story, his reasons for leaving, how come? Or is it just not sexy enough if it's not Westbrook's fault? And who's the 3rd superstar??? If you're referring to Harden, OKC simply didn't want to pay him, they chose Ibaka over him, how is that on Westbrook? Oladipo also had nothing but praise and credits Westbrook with his improvement. I'm not coming at you, I'm legit confused.
George came back for a second season and sang Russell's praises, right? Not only that but he had the best season of his career, does Russell get any credit for that? The fact that PG and Kawhi are both from LA (and PG mentioned them speaking back in March) and both made it clear before they were initially traded that LA is where they wanted to be, does that not play into this at all? Isn't that how they wound up in TOR and OKC to begin with, or is this just Westbrook affecting all this?
Everyone in the NBA is becoming unlikable with all these team ups. KD has always been unlikable even when the media was proclaiming him as "humble" during the Miami Big 3 Era. His move to Brooklyn only solidifies that belief. I do not respect this guy one bit and his two championships does not make him greater or rank higher in the all-time list.
Yes definitely.These team ups though make the NBA much more unpredictable and less likely to have a boring outcome, unlike the upcoming NFL season.
