Are we now the 4th seed or the 5th seed in the West?

    WE are not going to suck this year. Watch this and see where I come from, and how we love basketball and our club. Watch related videos also.


    OKC is not my club, I love Melo as a basketball player since he came in this league. I came here not to argue, but just to read and inform myself over the summer. But this is how you say hello to a new guy? That's nice from you, thanks.

    You're not the only one responsible for the creation of swyygal, but we all need to do a much better job of making sure this shitterusky doesn't get any more airtime on the site.

    I won't ignore her posts but at the same time I think there are a good segment of people here who won't tolerate it. So, we need to respect our fellow Clutchfan and all. Let's try to moderate this site on our own and be civil about ****.

    People need to seriously chill. Yes, OKC has improved a great deal over the offseason(although it could be short-lived). But who else has leapfrogged over us? The Warriors are still the best. The Spurs have actually gotten worse over the summer. Minnesota is much improved, but still likely an inferior team given the youth of their core. That leaves us as the 3rd or 4th seed in the West if healthy. And I still think we have a very good shot at #2 if OKC doesn't gel and if we stay healthy.

    Truth be told, I never wanted Melo here. Ryno is overpaid and we could do a lot better than him for 20 mil/season, but at least he's a 4. And he doesn't need the ball in order to be effective. I never really understood how a trio of Harden, CP3, and Melo was gonna co-exist at the offensive end. And frankly, I'm not so sure how a trio of Westbrook, George, and Melo is gonna work in OKC. At least Harden and CP3 are unselfish players.

    The mavs are not top 5 in the west. Do not worry.

    The only team clearly better than the rockets are the warriors.

    pretty sure come new season, all media gonna put their focus on GS and OKC, I like our underdog status so our players would have less pressure from the media and just play ball. I still see us in Top3 when regular season is done.

    What happens in PPat goes down? They don't have a back-up 4. What happens in Adams goes down? They don't even have a 5! Injuries happen. We have depth on depth on depth.
