    With the way the Rockets utilize the D-league, cfans certainly wasn't calling him a bust for that reason

    I disagree, if Durant and WB elevate their game enough to win the chip without Lamb or Adams contributing significantly, the trade is still a net loss

    I said could've. Harden is playing better than Westbrook this year, and was equal to him last year which means he would've made up for Westbrook's injury, or even better the Rockets wouldn't have made the playoffs (cuz no Harden) and Westbrook does not get injured and OKC's big three rolls into the finals and have a 50/50 shot at winning.

    big if though so yeah, I would've amnestied Perkins and given Harden the money.

    SMH....Harden would be coming off the bench in OKC. Harden plays ZERO defense. Harden is too one dimensional. Give me Westbrook all day

    ESPN reports that the Celtics are a dark-horse to trade for Omer Asik.

    why are you looking at my comparison statement. if OKC had Westbrook, Harden, Durant and Ibaka in the Finals last year wouldn't they have won since Wade and Bosh were playing like ****. if the answer to that question is yes then Houston won the trade. you can gloat all you want about a second year player who might contribute to a level Harden does but at the end of the day you took a net loss.

    Thunder with another late game collapse. The bench blew it and the starters are trying to finish the job.

    How is it that Arron Afflalo hasn't been linked to a contender yet?

    Dude is criminally underpaid. Is Orlando asking too much?

    and when the three would've reached their primes in one to two years,

    1 franchise player+2 semi to full franchise players. easy 3-4 championships. domination

    Heat dominated the Thunder when their players were just beginning to drink lol

    anyway. two close games Thunder vs Magic and Blazers Vs Pistons

    Magic and Pistons will be very dangerous in a year or two, so much young talent

    OKC would have lost tonight if they weren't up 12 with less than 2 mins left.

    There are times when I can tell they are ready to blow a game and tonight was the night. They are lucky it was at home against Orlando and the lead was so big it was almost impossible to lose.

    Guys, don't feed the troll. It's a waste of time and serves no purpose.

    they might or they might not have. I said they could have. but they would have still dominated the league when they reached their primes. 72-10?
