This is a team with no depth whatsoever. They beat up on weak teams but are too shallow to last against contenders. Don't buy into the Ibaka hype either, far too many defensive specialists who can't be counted on to score. 4-15 look like a d league squad. Can't waste talent like Durant for too long.
Grapenutz is an OKC fan who's in denial that Presti probably ruined that team's future with the Harden trade
Relocating back to Seattle where Ballmer and his deep pockets doesn't let top 5 talent leave to avoid the luxury tax.
no way, durant is the nice guy who will stay in okc till the end of his career because only bad guys leave their teams.
Wait....so hes gonna leave a team thats been to the finals to go to a team that hasnt been out of the first round in years?? Clutchfans are brilliant
so did dwight, as did carmelo (although he forced a resign and trade), heck chris paul forced a trade to a team that was generally unaware of the word playoffs.
The long term plan is to string Durant/Westbrook along as long as possible so they can turn a profit despite not really being contenders.
they have solid pieces. KD, Durant, and Ibaka need no mention. Very, very solid players. Role players--Thabo (solid D), Collison, Perkins, Reggie Jackson. Not shabby in the least, as f ar as role players go (though i HATE perkins) Young players: Steven Adams looks like he can be a viable starting center for years to come. Lamb, is still young and devloping, and he showed some promise with the Rockets. I was very excited about him when I watched him play. Very smooth and athletic, yet knows his limits and creates few TO's. Plays like a vet. Add in PJIII, and you ave a good nucleus of young talent to develop. 3 studs plus 3-4 good to above average role players...thats 7 deep. They could get some more pieces, but it's not too shabby
