KD, come on down to SA man...
- Thread starter Metcalf #2
- Start date
He and Bullmarket were dropped out on an isolated island to argue out their differences.
Other than OU, just follow the Bay Area teams. Fair weather fan as Saturdays in the fall take up most of my sports time.
I know a guy who is a Yankees, Lakers/Celtics, Cowboys/Steelers fan......he also roots for A&M as his college team (even though he attended UH)......so he can't be called a total frontrunner fan.
No way Paul can be put over Westbrook. I think you are in the minority there.
Westbrook is a beast. You take the good with the bad. Overall he's an incredible player and still has not hit his ceiling. If he and KD stay together they will win a title eventually. They have been playing against a loaded western conference ever since they became contenders.
Not to speak for the guy, but I don't think there is a consensus either way.
Top PGs are Curry with Westbrook and Paul behind him in either order. Then you have Kyrie Irving then a step down to Lillard, Lowry, and others.

Curry
Thompson

Oh wait, you only wanted five.
Your about a telephone tough guy save that tone for talking to my face okay there little man
Dafuq? You asked for a list of 5, and got a list of 6..... thats tough talk right there....
Lmao. Are you high little Matty? Where have I acted like a tough guy? And don't worry I would say it to your face.
I have nothing but mad respect for Russ and his alpha male style of play. He single handedly won one against GS. And I like his lack of respect for Curry's defense because it's true. I knew he wouldn't come out intimidated and afraid and he didn't,
But he drives me crazy when he tries to play hero ball and just try to take over and win it singlehandedly. To be fair he and KD as well, do it to much, they just don't trust their teammates when it matters.
As frustrated as I get with KD as well as Russ, what OKC needs is a third scorer. Steven Adams can be that guy. Beneath that New Zealand charm is a burning competitor who keeps raising his game. I look at the other centers in the NBA and I'm not impressed. If Adams can develop a good low post game and continue to improve on his free throw shooting he could be the best center in the NBA. And Lord knows the man is already the toughest player in the NBA. Even after what that ***hole Green did to him he played great.
I don't know about Serge Ibaka's future with the Thunder if there's anyone in their rotation he could be gone next year it's him.
Westbrook is crazy athletic but he is also his own worst enemy. Striking similarity to Carmelo & AI because he'll put on one helluva show but shuts down the rest of his own team to do so.
He'd harm a team like the Spurs much more than help them. Yes, our Spurs are a "system" team but the sheer consistency of sucess speaks volumes.
I believe KD would thrive in Pops system as long as he can control his emotions.

All I have to say is who sent your beloved Spurs home? Oh that's right it's that team you keep trying to put down! What is the overall record between the 2 oh wait a minute they own the Spurs there to.
I would have guessed so, seeing as his avatar pic was taken from the ass-end of the Cotton Bowl. But he claims otherwise.

Dude, never go full aggy. This is the umpteenth incarnation of the Spurs since their first championship. TD is the ONLY remaining player from that first ring. I'm not putting down OKC, I'm just saying their style of ball doesnt jive in San Antonio. Westbrook works well at OKC but wouldn't with Spurs. That's it
I believe Westbrook and Durant share equally with making stupid mistakes and going 20/58 from the field in game 6.
I'm in the minority when I say this but Russ would do great in SA. Popovich, above all else commands respect he has the resume to get that from every player in the NBA and that would include Russ.
Every player he's ever coached he's not afraid to tell them when they suck and that includes Tim Duncan. And because of his rings they respond the right way. Because of that Pop and Russ would do great together you wouldn't have to convince him off Russ' talent.
I can see your point of view. The Spurs top brass put a huge emphasis on a players potential to fit in vs their ability to put up gaudy stats. That's why so many guys that were mostly bench warmers tend to shine once in San Antonio.
I have the same opinion about Westbrook, Hardin & D Howard. They're all insanely talented but with them it's all about "me" before team. Don't get me wrong, Pop is a mastermind and well repected but some players just cant give in to conformity. Eh, who knows. Maybe they would flawlessly fit right in. I'm only a fan.
