Because the deal wasn't completed when this thread was made it justs adds to how hilarious it was.

A lot of nikkas look like idiots in here including myself thinking that Waiters could eat in OKC.

The problem with OKC is they have assembled all 1-1 iso wing players (Jackson, Durant, Waiters, Westbrook) who are shoot first, ask questions later. The team during the great run a few years back also had role players who played their role (Thabo on defense or even Eric Maynor as a facilitator). Also, on this team if one guy gets cold, he WILL keep shooting even if someone else is warming up or even hot. Sam Presti and Scott Brooks should be on the hot seat following this season.

I. Don't really matter who OKC gets as long as Brooks continues to run that 'shyt' he calls an offense, Teams are getting too good in both conferences for them to rely purely on talent anymore.

II, There might not be any hope for Dion. One game, the shots may be falling, the next they're not, but instead of falling back and doing other things to help the team he will still throw the rock up. It's one thing to be standing in one spot calling for the ball when you're open and a nikka like Bron or Durant simply don't pass to you cuz they feel they can take their guy 1 on 1; but I seen this nikkas the other night calling for the rock all the way up unitl the point where the ball was already in the air and he still standing their looking stupid with his hands out instead of positioning for a rebound or getting back on D.

When I posted it I thought Reggie Jackson was gone and Waiters was going to be the sole sixth man.

I also thought it would be a wake up call and a fresh environment for him to improve.

Right now, that's looking very bleak. Waiters has the worst real plus minus in the league at his position.

I'm not saying it's over for dude but I thought he would be better this season.

He also fukked major moolah for himself. Had he accepted his role in Cleveland Gilbert would've paid him handsomely.
