Jeff Teague going back home.

That's going to be a pretty good deal for the Pacers is Teague could play like he did a couple of years ago.

Imo that OKC trade may end up being pretty good for OKC. Oladipo and Westbrook are gonna be a heck of defensive backcourt plus they get a pretty solid PF prospect in Sabonis.

I agree. Ibaka might be 26 but he has big man mileage. That was a coup adding a legit big contributor and Olidipo. and you said it, the thing about Olidipo is he can athletically defend his position. Thats a nightmare of speed and athleticism. I wonder what the head to head metrics were on Olidipo vs Curry.

I noticed another small athlete on the celtics really caused curry issues with his quickness and strength, and I'd guess Viktor is an attempt to compensate that.

If KD stays in OKC I think they become the favorites to win next year. They robbed Orlando in that trade, I look forward to watching them play

Thunder murked them. Ibaka never became what they thought he would become. He got stuck in his development. Good player, but should be a great player. Has not shown the ability to take over a game and got way to 3 happy for a man that should be dominating on the boards. He also has progressively got worse the last 3 years. Maybe he needs a change of scenery, but this trade was great for the Thunder.

Inflation has officially hit the NBA. I guess we are going to have to get used to it. Of course our FO will say fuck that and anytime it comes to pay our players we will say goodbye. The future doesn't look bright unless the young players we have now win quick.

Robin Lopez is a bargain now!

It's a great time to be an NBA free agent

Indeed. I can't even begin to imagine what scrubs will be worth when the cap explodes even more next year. Hinrich could sign for $12mill somewhere. :smug:
