What Brooks did in the Finals was like a mirror image of what Thibs did in the ECFs against the Heat last year.

No Reason To Hang Our Heads.. Thunder Off Season Thread..
- Thread starter Loose
- Start date
I gotta give it up to Durant, he stuck around like a man and shook Miami's hands and went to the back and cried his eyes out...that's class!
This is one of the reason's IM not an LB fan, bc when he lost he was a sore loser. Whether it was walking off the court and not shaking hands or ripping off the Cleveland jersey or the "now everybody can go back to their lives" line, he didnt show class.
With all that said LB got it done so I'll leave my LB bashing to another day

Smooth sailing from here on out...
no reason to make any major changes in OKC.Maynor coming back will help a ton. I had no real problems with Fisher other than him being played 20 minutes a game & that old ass fast break he tried that Wade shyt on. If he ain't hitting shots then he is useless.
We should try to get some more 3 point shooters. Cook didn't get time, Harden couldn't hit shyt, Durant is hit or miss from the 3, & Russy isn't a 3 point shooter. They should try & get Thabo in a gym working on shooting 3s.

Amnesty Perkins
Ship Harden to the Bobcats for the 2 pick if they can, or 6/11 picks.
Brooks should be under close watch for the '12-'13 season, if he fukks up again fire his ass.
Durant needs to demand the ball more, this guy is so long..he needs to develop an explosive first step and get to the rack.
Westbrook just needs to stop doing Westbrook things.
Ibaka, ship him somewhere, get a center who can bang down low, sign Roy Hibbert or something lol.
Cut 'ol tunnelvision fisher lol. fukk that guy.
Definitely looking forward to the '12-'13 season though, they played great all season and got a taste of what the final stage was like, they're young..so I expect them to dominate the next 8 seasons.

They ain't gonna amnesty Perk, not yet anyway. Who do they draft in those spots if they traded Harden? Fisher ain't coming back to be 3rd string. Ibaka is fine, he is to young to give up on right now. We don't win without Russy being Russy.
OKC should look at trading our late 1st rounder & Reggie Jackson to get up in the draft & try to find a low post player there.
Also
at Public Enemies in here talking shyt after he disappeared from the OKC/Spurs thread when the Spurs were getting beat.

KD definitely needs to improve on establishing position (core and lower body strength), It was sad to watch his passiveness at time's.....No reason he should be catching the ball at the top of the key when he can catch it in the mid-range area and finish over anyone
I'd amnesty Perkins, or trade him for a S&T for Chris Kaman.

If we could get Kamen I would be all for it but I doubt the Hornets want Perk. I would amnesty him when it's time to pay Harden & Ibaka but it would be pointless right now unless we had a replacement for him.

Kaman is a unrestricted free agent, and while they traded Okafor, they spent a good amount of time during the season trying to trade Kaman.
I doubt they're willing to pay him what he wants.

Roy motherfukking Hibbert.
I dont even want to waste a roster position im dead ass i rather run with our younger centers aint many dominate centers in the west anyway.
If I'm OKC, I try to trade Harden and Ibaka for Lamarcus Aldridge ASAP. OKC need a post up player badly. Or try trading for Paul Millsap. As good as Harden is, the dude becomes a liability on defense against elite players and get shocked and scared. Also, try to get rid of Perkins asap, the dude is a bum. KG made the dude so much better than he really is. Give Collison more minutes. And fukk it try to get KG too lol
Nah, that's too much for lamarcus
If you give up harden and ibaka Portland needs to throw in that 6th pick as well.
Wilt, kaman would be a great fit
LMA is much better than both Harden and Ibaka. LMA is one of the best Pick N Roll defenders in the game. The only concern is potential health concerns, but other than that, the dude imo is the 2nd best PF in the game, and they need a low post presence. But, problem is though is that they would still have PErkins, so that might not be the best trade in hindsight, but if they can get any decent Center in free agency, I think they would be fine.
