I miss Nance... Couldn't we have traded Zubac instead?


Nope. Lakers wanted to move Nance's $2.8m salary.

Hood is the best pickup for them. They needed younger 3 point shooters and and he’s going to feast.

Clarkson and Hood can't miss.

Being in a losing situation made Clarkson underrated

Can OKC miss the playoffs?

With an OKC loss, the 5-9th seed all have 26 losses.

Well these are the center pieces we'll be building around, wouldn't PG want to hear from them why they should play together?

OKC is overrated. If the Spurs get KL back the best OKC will get is 4th seed. The 1st round is not guaranteed either. I think the T Wolves would give them a tough series if they were 5th seed. And then if OKC makes it to the 2nd round they will get beat by the Warriors.

You want OKC to lose badly, so PG can see the futility of playing with the three superstar group. If he can't beat LeBron and his journeyman... he's never going to beat the Warriors.

Cavs are such a hot shooting team even before the trades. I would always see Korver or JR have like 6/6 3pt shooting

I could see OKC giving the Warriors a run for their money as the key to beating the Warriors is attacking Steph. Against OKC, Steph can't easily hide.

Warriors are too deep for OKC. They would be lucky to win 1 game.

Depends if their hot shooting can continue. They have been shooting over 50% from three last two games.

I think only Toronto has a chance. They have been the only consistent Eastern team this year and their bench is special.

Boston will get beat by Cleveland easily.

I say Clarkson because he creates shots for others and is probably the fastest guard on Cleveland

LBJ runs the team. Jc would be off the bench. I think hood is their long term gunner.

OKC is 2-0 vs. GSW this season (beat them by 17 & 20 points), but they cannot get a game or more in a 7 game series. My opinion is there is near a 0% chance GSW could sweep a healthy OKC team.

I remember when we got our asses handed to us by the Bobcats over and over again in the regular season during our championship years, 2008-2010. Yet, I'm 100% sure that everyone would have picked us in the Finals if we went up against that scrub team.

Of course, the Mavs are stinking it up today. These scrub teams only get up the play the mighty Lakers.

Omg I remember this...the bobcats turned into the 96 Bulls whenever they played us. In fact I'm certain if they made it out of the east they would have swept us in 3 games.
