    Hmm I don't doubt that by I would argue by saying Durant actually has a higher concentration of people who like him as well.

    He is a combo guard who will partly hold down the fort until Paul gets back.

    But do not say he is a great playmaker, PG or a pure PG, he is not.

    Austin will frustrate you guys. He is neither a good point guard nor a good shooting guard. At best, he can bring energy and heart, which does not equate to wins in most cases. What he will do is have the ocassional good game to give you hope and prevent you from trading him. Plus, he is an arrogant ass####.

    With Paul down, I can see why there was a rush...but man i have to think there were better options than him.

    Austin is hot garbage himself (this season) so he'll fit right in. ;)

    If this sends House down to the Valley, it's not going to help our team-- unless Gary Clark steps up.

    I’ll give him time to win me over but it’s hard to forget him doing the Harden “cooking” hand motion after just leading his team on a good run. He better bring that same energy when he suits up for us!

    Says he'll frustrate us.

    Then goes on to say he will do the only thing people want our players to do.

    If you haven't noticed, the biggest fan favourites only ever brought energy and heart.
