Prayers to all of you in oklahoma. "the true measure of a man is what he does when he has nothing to gain" . true respect to KD.
@Royce Young @Thunder S but being a fairly good team may get in the way of becoming a great team. thats the flaw in the logic of "sustainability". you cant be sustainably GREAT. you can be sustainably good- some years you just have to go for it and take chances, even if it means a couple of years ull be mediocre.
there are two approaches in my mind. be good for many years. or be very good and then not as good later and then very good. Thunder are choosing the former. But as a fan, I dont want us to be consistently good but not great- thats no man's land.
I'm not saying thats what we are right now, but their logic seems to justify that approach.
All this sustainability talk is fine. But the Utah Jazz of the 90s were sustainable. So were the Sonics. Sometimes you have to go for it NOW. Its fine for the thunder to preach this- but what it means is that they would rather be a contender for 10 years than be an odds-on favorite for two or three.
I dont know about you. But i dont want to be the Utah Jazz of the 1990s or the Cleveland Cavaliers with Lebron. Those teams were "in contention" but not good enough to win it.
@Legendary_Dork @Thunder S he mustve watched too much film of our post season offense. #shotsfired
Perry Jones sounds a lot like Reggie Jackson. #igotjokes
Lamb sounds like he was falling asleep in his exit interview
@kierantk @Bry Bry Ibaka was a good pickup, but im skeptical he can improve his ball skills. he has just poor hands, theres no two ways around it. even on freethrows sometimes he doesnt get a clean grip on the ball. still a good player- but just dont think we can expect him to turn into hakeem.
@TrueChamp @Thunder S im not lying, here:
Chris Tomasson @christomasson4h
LeBron on OKC: “You can’t replace Russell Westbrook. He’s an Olympian and if he continues on the path he’s on he’s a future Hall of Famer."
@Amnesty Perkins @Thunder S Lamb has similar size and physical tools. problem is he doesnt have the same motor- and i dont think thats something you can just teach.
Can Lamb replace Thabo next year? Would we take better shooting if it means some drop off on defense?
@Amnesty Perkins i dont think thats a prerequisite for a center. see marc gasol.
@TempBoy Brandon @Thunder S oh haha. yea i agree. people nationally are missing what a once in a generation player russell is. we see him here everyday. his heart passion is not surpassed by any player playing today.
@TempBoy Brandon @Thunder S haha i was just joking
@OBoy @Thunder S haha he didnt say that. im just joking
@OBoy @Thunder S Lebron "But boy, they gotta amnesty perk"
Lebron: “You can’t replace Russell Westbrook. He’s an Olympian and if he continues on the path he’s on he’s a future Hall of Famer."
Also - i think spurs easily beat memphis. i think memphis is really overrated- our team is just average without russ.
would people take oj mayo over k-mart? - assuming mayo was cheaper (keep in mind better d)
@TheresABabyFaceUnderMyBeard @Thunder S If westbrook gives Perk swag on the basketball court, he is even better than i thought.
Perk: "Russ do one thing that stands out to me. He gives everybody swag. He gives everybody swagger to Coach Brooks to KD to myself."
