Neither the Clippers or Knicks even contacted Sloan or Phil. The only 2 coaches available that could turn their franchises around.

And I'd suggest avoiding the trade machine sbh. That was horrendous.

I suppose it's a lot to give up for Gasol, but what are they going to do with Boozer? dumping him off is better than paying 13.5 to let him rot on the bench

Amnesty him. Use a package with Noah to get Gasol, use the cap space by Amnesty to sign Eric Gordon.

Rose, Gordon, Deng, Taj, Gasol would then be your starting line up.

This is not happening.

Absolutely not, but I have my dreams, MY DREAMS. This where something about Matt Bomer goes.

First 5 OKC possessions involved a postup each by Perkins and Sefolosha both resulting in turnovers and a Serge Ibaka 20 footer. Solid execution.

Gasol is a creampuff. They don't want Gasol. They suck enough, they don't need to suck more.

[yo123]

Kawhi Leonard is already such a good defender. The Thunder just spent like half of that possession trying to get Durant the ball and they couldn't do it.

Imagine if we had gotten them? #Knicks2012Champs. Oh well. One more year until the dynasty begins.

We're giving the league a year to have some fun, since we're merciful.

I wanted him for the Kings so bad. I kept telling everyone who would listen that Leonard was really good. He was exactly what the Kings needed, he would've provided a defensive stopper, length on the perimeter, a great rebounder (for a SG/SF) and an efficient offensive player. I hated the Jimmer pick so much.

Who knows how he would have done in another system , especially whatever the system the Kings are trying to run exactly, but that would have been a much better pick yes. I thought Jimmer would be a little better but I was really unimpressed by him all season. If he can't score more efficiently than he did this year he's useless.

The Kings have a system?

Its called watch Tyreke Evans go one on one and hopefully Demarcus Cousins can get the rebound and not blow the putback.

[Raiderz4Life]

The Spurs are so pleasant to watch.

[yo123]

Spurs/Heat is going to be incredible.

[bigbluedefense]

The Spurs play the game the way it was meant to be played. Just such great ball movement.

[LonghornsLegend]

This **** is crazy. I'm glad I'm watching this. I hate the Spurs but this is art work. Thunder aren't ready.

The Knicks won't do **** next year if we can't get a quality bench and coach who doesn't suck balls on the offensive side of the court.

That and Lin has to be good.

[Raiderz4Life]

Spurs are beautiful right now. Westbrook's ego is killing OKC. Their offense right now is Westbrook dribble dribble dribble, dribble some more, shoot.

[WMD]

As awesome as the Spurs are playing right now, the Knicks from 2013 would just completely destroy them. That team is gonna be completely stacked.

[yo123]

I heard MJ and Kareem are both coming out of retirement to play for the Knicks. In their primes.

[Raiderz4Life]

Heard Isaiah is coming back too...as their PG.

As if we even need that.

Along with Bird, Magic, and the monsters from Space Jam.
