He has been an all star caliber player but I don't want to give that to a fringe all star they should be a bonafide player

I think Lowry never got better. They held him out of the last two weeks with back spasms, then brought him back for the last 3 games, two of which he sucked in.
Now in the playoffs he's got a PER of 1.0 through 2 games. He's 5-20 with 10 fouls. Either John Wall is the NBA's greatest living defender, or that dude ain't right.

Yeah obviously the Raptors are gonna be bad if they're best player is secretly Raymond Felton. Washington should sweep.
Wittman gets an extension.

If Houston makes the CF I'll be back to eat crow and congratulate RBK and get that avatar change. Otherwise, I'll probably come back mid August ish

By reilo Go To PostScott Brooks fired: http://slaent.com/thread/160658/page/13/#p191320Good. Hopefully they're smart enough to get a coach to play Westbrook at the 2.
By K@do Go To PostGood. Hopefully they're smart enough to get a coach to play Westbrook at the 2.That'd be dumb
By K@do Go To PostGood. Hopefully they're smart enough to get a coach to play Westbrook at the 2.Don't know about that tbh. Westbrook at point is fine now. 2 years ago? Sure.
@WojYahooNBA
Presti's decision wasn't a reflection of the job Brooks did this season, but ultimately a long-view for the franchise, sources tell Yahoo.
Whatever that means.

By vire Go To Post@WojYahooNBAIt means that we weren't firing him based on missing the playoffs last season, it was based on wanting to inject some fresh thinking into the franchise.

see you then bruh
Better hope Ollie is walking through that door and is enough to keep KD happy. Wasn't he and YNB really really close to Brooks?

Look at this guy.
Be good Vahagn, SL&ENT is in good hands.
By knux-future Go To PostBetter hope Ollie is walking through that door and is enough to keep KD happy. Wasn't he and YNB really really close to Brooks?Hard to really know. They put a good face on for the media but it would be hard to get a negative quote out of KD about Hitler.
"RT @sam_amick: Sam Presti made call of firing Brooks w/out consulting his players. Was about the long view more than it was last season "
Boy o boy!
Boy o boy!
By KingGondo Go To PostHard to really know. They put a good face on for the media but it would be hard to get a negative quote out of KD about Hitler.I though his recent FUCK DA MEDIA stance was based off of them constantly calling for Brooks' head?
By knux-future Go To PostI though his recent FUCK DA MEDIA stance was based off of them constantly calling for Brooks' head?No telling. I think it was based more on criticism of the Thunder as a whole.
By psychintellect Go To PostThat'd be dumbno it wouldn't. a pass first floor general would be far more efficient in getting westbrook and durant the ball then ynb prentending to be one and because you know, getting to the finals once is a huge success.
By K@do Go To Postno it wouldn't. a pass first floor general would be far more efficient in getting westbrook and durant the ball then ynb prentending to be one and because you know, getting to the finals once is a huge success.If this was a couple years a go I'd agree with you. but Westbrook has more than proven he an run an offense more than well enough. What the new coach needs to do is find a way for KD and Westrbrook to cooperate on the court better instead of just running isos like what Brooks did.
Relegating Russ to the 2 and getting a "pass first" point guard doesn't solve OKC's problems, it just limits YNB's and KD's powers
I'm usually all for having a pass-first PG but YNB needs the ball to be effective, i would rather put a good 3 and D guy at the 2 and continue having him play PG.
By K@do Go To Postno it wouldn't. a pass first floor general would be far more efficient in getting westbrook and durant the ball then ynb prentending to be one and because you know, getting to the finals once is a huge success.YNB and KD lacking synergy wouldn't change by sliding him to PG though. Besides... Russ bringing the ball up the floor is probably one of the most terrifying things a defense can wake up to these days. DJ coming in to take pressure off and share the floor with him worked great but Russ at point is fine. The offense itself was what was broken.
i'd like to argue the offense was broken because they started with an offense minded pg.
change that to a pass first pg and they're offense will be just fine.

By psychintellect Go To PostOr have a coach implement a system beyond "make shit happen"and "try harder"
Yeah. Brooks should've been fired two seasons ago. This is pretty much a hail mary, hoping for KD to stay.
i was under the impression that this thread wasn't for losers
please take discussion of dominated, loser ass clubs to the off-season thread, thanks

By DY_nasty Go To PostYou can't win with a primary ball handler that doesn't need to be guarded. Rondo ain't shit.Exactly.
I can't believe we're still having this dumb conversation about YNB. He isn't a prototypical PG, but he's a great PG nonetheless.
