    This. People have been ignoring it because Of Hardens season but this offense looks awful. Come playoff time it will be easy to defend that is for sure.

    Yeah really. Would rather have House at this point. Plus Clint will be back after AS.

    For some reason this one stings more than the others.

    It might just be because this average player that filled a position of need chose instead to go to a division rival.

    I can’t see beyond a first round exit...

    They may have made a problem for themselves because now grant Noel and Fersusons minutes will be impacted negatively

    On the bright side, for those b****ing about how we were a bigger draw for free agents last year: Nostalgia is usually deluded. Our big gets in the buyout market were Joe Johnson and Brandan Wright.

    I think we should stop paying attention to rumours from now on. This year the fruition rate of rumours was dismally low. All the big deals came completely out of nowhere. Let's stop pretending anyone knows what'll happen before it happens. Everyone, including big media, is just guessing and hoping they can brag about it later if it comes true.

    I never bought the "we're saving our MLE for buyout szn" line, given their pick ups.

    And morey talks too much publicly he never does anything behind close doors he just have to always come out and say something publicly well we are going to be aggressive in the buyout market and amd the trade market and the best thing you come away with is Iman Shumpert.....Morey should slap himself

    Maybe, most likely though like others have said, it will probably mean Patterson is out of the rotation completely.

    Morris would have been a nice add but I don't see him changing our fortunes? Would have been nice to have though.

    At the end of the day it's always going to come down to if your best players can outplay their best players. Seeing how OKC has done in the playoffs post-Durant and it's not been pretty. Give me a healthy Harden/CP3/Capela over Westbrook/PG13 any year.
