He would like it a lot less if they get rid of Westbrook for some shitty role-players and keep getting bounced in the 2nd round every year.

You don't need some super PG to win a championship. I'd trade WB if it got me a good big and a good wing player.

Last dominate PG to win a chip? Tony Parker?

No way the Thunder trade YNB. In the playoffs when the entire defense locks up on KD, you really want to depend on the likes of reggie jackson,jeremy lamb,sefalosha and ibaka to show up and make plays? fucking lol
I'm sure KD looks at Bron's years in Cleveland and says to himself "I want that"

Um, are you talking about D-Rose? The guy who hasn't played in two seasons now, and was injured in the first game of the previous playoffs? The guy whose career has now been riddled with injuries? The same injuries that I JUST SAID have limited LeBron's competition? Huh? Is that what you're saying?
And did you really bring up old ass Tim Duncan? Seriously?
And yes, KD is competition. I don't deny that, but that's mainly one guy, and it doesn't compare the insane competition MJ had. Just to reiterate, this isn't LeBron's fault, but it's the truth.
That surely sounds like a 2nd round fodder in the West.

For a star big, yes, but what was suggested was a combination of role players. That shit won't work in the West. KD would have to stay healthy and play heavy minutes every season just to get a top seed.

yea, it's not like okc doesn't have serviceable wing players already. they don't really need an inside post presence.
even though perkins is a worthless slug, their starting 5 is very good. ibaka protects the rim well enough and gets easy shots since defenses collapse so hard on durant. sefolosha is a solid perimeter defender and shoots well from outside. why would you trade westbrook when he causes so many problems for opposing defenses that are already stretched thin guarding the best offensive player in the game?
besides, maybe we'll see a different russ in the playoffs this year. maybe.

meh. Jennings is cut from the same cloth as WB but he just sucks. I guess Monroe and Ibaka would work.
Thabo doesn't shoot well from any where and he sucks. Dude can't even dribble without out looking at the ball.

I thought he was pretty good at hitting open corner 3s? a career 35% 3 point shooter isn't great, but he's not bad. obviously he's not a playmaker, but he'll hit open shots often enough to be worth having out on the floor is my point.
Rondo would beg KD to take every shot.
Blackace

Well Jennings would be bonus
Dunno about Jenning. But Monroe is interesting.
He'd be paired next to Ibaka, who would cover his lack of athleticism defensively. But i dunno, i was higher on Monroe last year. I'm now starting to wonder if he's much more than elton brand.
He could be a great fit, or a terrible fit.
I've essentially given up on jennings.

With the development of Drummond he hasn't been used very well in Det so far...
High post offense with him and KD could be like the old Kings O with Webber and Peja

Mike Unleavy. Because there is no D with that man.
I need Wesley Johnson to have the greatest game of his career in this shortened week for fantasy because asshole David Lee decided to suit up but I couldn't take the chance of getting a zero.

his numbers look only above average at PF but advanced stats show him as a 57% TS when he plays C even this year
he's definitely all-star potential as a C in this league

Nets are the second word rebounding team in the league and the Bulls are one of the best in the East.

Bulls Vs Nets probably sounded good before the season started.
But Lakers vs Thunder?

The amount of times the bulls have been on this year isn't even justifiable with MVP Rose on the roster

Kobe will be the 2nd player ever to have a great recovery from an Achilles injury, obviously.
Nets can't rebound for shit. They've been bad all year.
I can't remember, did you show up yesterday?
I'm sorry that I'm in a fucking desert and I did a pointless convoy behind a mountain and lost service.
Also, if you weren't busy being a disgruntled Knicks fan all year you would've noticed that your team has been one of the worst on the boards this season

When D-Rose comes back to play it will be more exciting.
