2014 NBA Off-Season; Paul George suffers a double-compund-fracture, likely out for season. Speedy re

anyone see ric bucher's "report" on B/R that no one wants to play with dwight and harden? dude is such garbage

Season by season, more and more Dwight is showing he won't return to that 2011 player (or that he'll even be on a team that could help repeat that) and that the Harden trade was far from a mistake (given how he hasn't made the leap to superstar and OKC really hasn't lost much of a step).

If Buss really wanted "Showtime" back instead of hiring lame duck coaches like Prngles and Scott he should've convinced Rick Adleman to come to the Lakers and have him assemble a '02 Kings knockoff.

- Oh how I wish there was a team that entertaining that played that unselfishly in the game now.

spurs?

kobe and unselfish???


IMPOSSIBRUUUUUU

First thing Adleman does is bench Kobe during practices or gives him the option to show up or not It really would be about building the future of the new Lakers

So A.I. Sixers when Kobe is in the lineup and then Kings when he's not

I think he either buys in if it can get him back to the finals or goes YOLO Bynum on the Lakers.

Adelman was asleep at the wheel this past season in Minnesota. He has to take care of his wife, no way was he considered.

They play great and I enjoy them but their core 3 is older and their emerging key guys aren't as exciting and good as a Webber/Peja/Bibby were together.

The route on the Heat in the finals was reminiscent of them at times but then it became typical Spurs clinic on a team that gave up.

I know he wasn't and quite frankly he hasn't been great particularly in Minny for few years (given what he has) nor has that team or any team in the league really try to recreate that Kings team formula (probably cuz they never won although I think that's a mistake).

i mean, if anything dwight's playoff performance says otherwise. 26 14 and 4 blocks is kind of good.

and harden, offensively speaking, just put up a season that ranks among lebron, larry bird, d wade, MJ, and kobe. he turns 25 next month, so if you don't think he's become a superstar he still has plenty of time

Dwight needs to be consistently dominant and given those playoff stats if the team were really focused on him as the anchor on offense as well as defense he'd performed better.

I watched that Rockets/Blazers series and clearly saw Dwight really wasn't that same player as good as those stats are.

 

[denni5themenace]

i'd have to agree with DWS, dwight had a MONSTER post season. even though it was cut relatively short.

they were going to him late in the game. he was making his free throws and getting good shots inside.

Okc would have been to atleast another finals appearance..

"My team has been and remains trash for years and years so let me speak my opinions on everyone else's that isnt"...makes sense

I STILL DONT AGREE W DA HARDEN MOVE

SHOULDA AXED IBAKA INSTEAD OR PERKINS

If that's the case I disagree and there's no reason to continue this discussion.

I think Harden trade was a win for the Rockets

I considered that (OKC not getting back to the finals since) and I feel they still lose in the WCF.

With or without Harden KD needs to better control games. Son don't be looking like a leader out there when it counts.

That's fine.

DEF A W FOR THEM

BUT FOR OKC SMH

I REALLY WANTED SOME EPIC OKC V MIA FINALS

Just a dumb statement by dude.

People can't give Dwight the respect he deserves.

Dog Becky Hammond is still playing the WNBA?




Let me find out Theresa Witherspoon's fine *** still in the league.

Ibaka is awesome and proved to be a difference maker on defense (something Harden SEVERELY lacks). The way Reggie Jackson played too it looked like they got their much needed spark off the bench for MUCH cheaper.

I think the Thunder could have won that series if Scott Brooks would have put Caron Butler in over this bum
