    lol its not twin towers that were guilty....the size didnt mattered at all... it was not passing the ball to sengun...and you gotta be real dumb or tanking to do that... and since we won then it must have been dumbness

    There is nothing to fear from Brooklyn as they are now. Harden is well...not himself. Their spacing is bad. And I'll be happy to play D on Durant and let him chuck mid range jumpers all game. We can do it.

    I don't think we'll see any momentum before the 15th since the offseason signings become eligible to trade then. My guess is teams that he fits a need for will be the same teams looking at Terrence Ross as well. Very similar players in terms of being vets that provide quick offensive boosts and have some postseason experience. Gordon has the better postseason resume and has hit more big shots in his career, but Ross earns about 7 million less per season which could be a big deal depending on the team. Not sure that either will get you a big return, and chances are you'll get something akin to what we got for Oladipo last year - matching salaries and at most a modest swap that helps you move up a few picks.

    The good thing is, there should be many buyers and the sellers here have fewer pieces than we do. I don't think there's anyone on the Thunder, for example, that a contender would want to trade for to put them over the top. Even with the Pistons, you maybe have Frank Jackson and Cory Joseph on the block, neither player being very good.

    If the reports are true about Wood, and we know that Theis is going to be on the trade block along with Gordon, House, and maybe Augustin (he should be), then we actually will have a number of impact players that can help contenders looking to get over the top or replace key injured guys. Hopefully that means we can drive up the price a little.

    I literally love hearing his interviews its hilarious
    He's so unassuming

    Funny story I met his cousin who had told him to retire when he had all those injuries in NO and I literally lost my mind when he told me that
    I always try to let him know that he has earned over $100 mil since then won 6th man, won 3pt contest over the greatest shooter in nba history and is an overall G

    In the endgame. Never doubted EG as long as he gets a shot off because he is one of the clutchest players in our franchise's history. He's dribbling and making plays to pass makes me nervous as hell. EG has more haters than any non-superstar in this league, hope he gets a ring somewhere and retire a champion.

    Great win. Props to the vets and sengun.

    Durant shoots 60% from midrange lol … if we let him chunk those shots it’s gonna be Aldridge in playoffs against us…. We just need to play the same good D we been playing … and rebound
