He's got a really unbalanced team. I really don't agree with the good stats on bad teams = bad player sentiment.

I don't think anyone said he was bad. It just sucks if you go out and ball hard and your team doesn't win.
 
Kings may not be pushover tied with clips

Also dragic and Bledsoe back to earth tonight why do the suns own us?!
 
Bledsoe just hit a gamewinning 3.
 
He's nasty. What a brilliant move getting Bledsoe and Plumlee. Meanwhile oshley gets robin Lopez. Yikes.
 
They have three first rounders next year and four GREAT players in plumlee, Bledsoe, dragic, and tucker. Nobody in nba is set up better for future

Funny though sixers and suns 2-0 so much for tanking

I'm proud of them for playing their hearts out. Set a tone for a winning culture. Glad their coaches didn't get the memo
 
Re: The 2013-14 Around The NBA Thread......

Are the clips really 1-2?
 
Phoenix 2-0. They may end up with one of the worst records in the NBA, but I still think the 76ers record is safe.
 
Check out the Bucks-Celtics game. Celtics had it in the bag then the Bucks cleared their bench and Pachulia and Wolters made like Magic and Kareem for the win. Bonus weirdness points: Gerald Wallace hits a three!

Oh, and the Celtics' best player was probably Vitor Faverani, who had 12 points, 18 rebounds and SIX blocks. And the guy barely gets off the ground! He's the runaway fave for cult player of the year.
 
I honestly don't see the Thunder winning the division. They are obviously missing Westbrook, but I don't think he solves all their problems. They look very bad so far. The Wolves and Blazers are much improved and if both can stay healthy, I think one of those teams takes it. Thunder will be sub .500 until Westbrook returns.

As much both Portland and Minnesota have improved, they're still not as good as OKC is. You are right, the Thunder will struggle until Westbrook returns, but I don't think it'll damper their whole season.

Not seeing that at all. The Thunder lost a game on the road. They are 1-1. I hate Westbrook, but I respect him and he will be back soon. Minnesota needs to win on the road before I give them credit.

As for the Blazers....we are improved but we are not close to the thunder this year. The Thunder will not be as good as they were last year, but they will still win the division.

Again it isn't just missing him. Their whole team looks terrible. Ibaka has regressed tremendously. Perkins is still garbage. Their bench is really nothing besides Collison being solid and Adams potentially.

One thing I've learned in my many years of fandom is the teams to beat are still the teams to beat. As much as I would love for okc to fail, they still have two of the best players in the league. Because of that, I won't count them out
 
Bulls/76ers on WGN at 4:30 MCW vs Rose, nice opening act for the Blazer game
 
Two of my white guys tore it up last night. Love went off as usual and Hayward was 2 assists shy of a triple double.

That Adelman coached Minn team looks tough if they can stay healthy.
