    Yeah, PG looked like their third option when he should be second, Melo always shoot lol, if he gets the ball he never passes, just like Beasley.

    I still think we need to keep an eye on them, they have a terrific defensive potential and great lenght, physicality, if they can somehow find a way to make their offense work they'll be scary.

    Didn’t PG say he was gunning for the MVP this season?

    That definitely won’t be happening.

    Y'all are missing the REAL story. With all these stars, their college basketball Head Coach is out of his league.

    I agree, OKC hired the wrong coach. Donovan could have been a good coach for a team like the Magic or the Nets where he can benefit and learn from a younger team rather than having to deal with starts. I think westbrook is gonna start calling the shot in Okc as the season progress.

    To me this is an absolutely incredible stat:

    Russell Westbrook has now gotten a triple double against every single team he's faced. Congrats to the reigning MVP.

    (Okay, now I can go back to ******** on him every chance I get for being a chucker who can't figure out how to win.)

    Paul George looking lost

    Oladipo and Sabonis thriving

    The media's fellatio of Westbrook over Harden last year looks more embarrassing by the day.

    I was thinking the same. But in terms of how the season continues, do you really think Oladipo and Sabonis will be the better combo than the trio of Westbrook PG Carmelo?

    Nope. I do not. But that's not the point.

    The point is the media went out of their way to say that Oladipo/Sabonis/Kanter/Adams/etc. were all a bunch of absolute bums that should be in the Australian league or something. Now...two of those pieces are thriving due to actually being able to play basketball and shoot and pass to each other and actually be involved in the offense. That should surprise nobody.

    Ohhhhhhhhh. Yeah, I agree. This is what fukSPN does. We should know better to not let that raise our blood pressure. At this point I'm sick of all the things the media does in general. But it looks like we have to get used to it.

    So far, I notice any player that leaves OKC has been playing a whole lot better than in it. Could it be front office management, team chemistry or something?
