    finally we rewarded this professional with something. All these years hearing his name on the trade block, but he kept his coolio.

    It’s really awesome to see when he gets hot and launches those deep threes.

    I’m happy about this. Ego has had to deal with rumors and his name thrown around in trades for too long. We need him now more than ever. I feel like he will have a big year with Westbrook pushing the tempo and finding him.

    All good. We can be buddies and disagree with posts.

    If you believe the sources then I could see how you could think my post is unfair.

    If you believe it’s BS like I do then I feel it’s warranted for me to make what I (and others) believe is a valid point.

    I love me some EG but for the love of God, we need some length and size in the front court. Small ball can only win so many games.

    I agree except the Rox are the one who got rewarded not EG. The FA market is super weak and lots of teams have capspace if it was any other FA who didnt have loyalty he would have left town as quickly as Portions did during his FA.

    Just because he has this contract doesn't mean he won't get traded. I don't see us keeping Austin Rivers Eric Gordon James Harden and Westbrook.

    We have Harden Westbrook EG and Capela for say 3 more years. PJ for two and hope he doesn’t decline and House hopefully improves.

    We have to do a sign and trade and use our remaining picks for a forward this summer. We can’t afford to wait. And can’t afford to not be able to do sign and trades. At this point I’d be happy with Crowder even if it means firsts and then pray another forward falls to us through the buyout.
    All wishful thinking.

    EG plays in the backcourt not front court have no clue why tf are you complaining? EG shot 40% from 3 in the playoffs last year we need his sharpshooting even more with brodie on the squad.

    Btw the Rox arent exactly small anymore (with shoes) Brodie is 6'6, Harden 6'5, EG 6'3 and Clint is 6'11. The only midget is PJ Tucker but he can still defend all the pfs in the league pretty effectively. Backup is Tyson Chandler 7'1, Rivers 6'4, House 6'6. Off the Rox' first 7 dudes only 1 guy can be considered undersized and that dude was arguably a first team all defensive player last year.
