    Because in the FINALS...they shot the exact same 35 percent from three that the Lakers did. Yet they did have the same advantages of size, rebounding and shot blocking. The latter over the former in getting the chip IMO.

    Nope. Golden State, Miami and Phoenix all shot the higher percentage from three in the Finals they lost in the last three seasons. They were all out rebounded in those Finals too.

    i don't even know where to start on that fake sga thing.

    i will say, sort of off topic, that okc having him in a bunch of talks doesn't surprise me. i don't think he's a superstar, and i think they're hoping somebody else does so they don't get trapped paying him max.

    joke's on okc as usual, since while we can't trade for him, he's not good enough to lead a team to the playoffs and they're going to have to max him out quite soon.

    i'll take lebron and AD. you take SGA and the 6th pick and all the future lotto picks you are both owed and will accrue.

    Tony Jones from the Athletic said that Kuz for Joe Ingles is a possibility. Not sure what that means, but sign me up.

    Ok, Jake Fischer (whoever that is). How in the world are we supposed to pull off a trade for Westbrook AND Hield??? Hield alone would require both Kuz and Trez. That leaves Schroder and KCP and who exactly to reach Westbrook's $44 Million salary?

    I am glad to hear though, from several NBA sources that there are Vets willing to sign for minimum if we line up a big piece.

    I guess Kuz and the pick for Hield?

    Dennis, Trez, and KCP for Westbrook?

    Kuzma, Harrell, #22 for Hield

    Shroeder (18 million), KCP, Gasol, and McKinnie works mathematically. Not sure if Washington would do it though. Unless they really want to unload the contract.

    There could be a surprise move somewhere. There could be something like Shroader (18 million), THT (9 million), Kuzma, and #22 to Chicago for LaVine and Young.

    I think your expectations are too high, we dont have much flexibility this offseason, so Rob is in a tough spot. I would be very happy if we got Hield and another solid contributor, especially if we have to package KCP as well.

    In a heartbeat. I don’t think that would be the deal though. I’m guessing Kuz and the 23rd pick

    I don't really expect something like that, but hey you never know. It would not surprise me if something like that happens. Is that better?
