The thing to worry about is whether Durant will want to stay in the smallest market in the league.Originally Posted by DatZNasty
I just like that he doesn't dominate the ball to get his points like most scorers, nor does he "chase." I mean, he certainly can bring the ball up the court, 1-4 iso, pound the ball 10 times and take his man off the dribble, in the post, or whatever he wants to do but for the most part Brooks has him scoring on quick hitting type plays. Like the most common and successful one is just a basic play where he starts to post up, Nenad or Collison or Ibaka are at the elbow (where you have to respect them because all 3 will knock that down), then he curls off and gets an elbow to 17ft jumper off that pick. Easy money, quick. Then he'll get an offensive rebound and go right back up, or get a kickout pass off of a broken play.
Looking at the Thunder's contract situation too, it's very promising but none of the young core guys (KD, Jeff, Russell, James, Thabo) are ending soon and in fact we have team options on Harden, Westbrook, Maynor, and Serge through the 2012 season. So we will, at some point, be able to resign all of our guys provided they don't get big headed and still possibly bring in a big name free agent.
