Off the top of my head.

KD being a top 2 player WAY early in his career.
KD averaging 5 assists per game.
The Hawks emergence.
Jimmy Butler.
Harden being a superstar when giles said he was a role player.
Reggie Jackson.

And many, many other things.
 
He said KD would regularly avg 5, he did it once.
Butler had a great 2 months, has come back to earth since. Let's calm down
He also said the Harden trade was good
He hates Reggie Jackson now

For starters, I only hate Reggie because of how he has acted. I still think he is a really good starting PG in this league and he will be next year.

KD would be averaging 5 assists this year (and still probably will) as soon as he gets regular burn. Its beyond moronic that you would even bring that one up.

Harden would not be doing what he is doing now with the Thunder. I still believe that KD/RW are better than him andthat Ibaka is the better fit as the third player. Also, Adams is going to be a top 10 center just like I said so it is what it is. You never get equal value for a star. I also predicted Harden would be this good in his rookie season and you and GF laughed but lets conveniently ignore that.

Butler is worn down because Thibs doesn't understand how to manage peoples minutes. He is still better than Kevin Love and always has been. You just don't watch these guys play and just look at statlines and act like you know what you are talking about.

Remember when KD wouldn't even be a top 15 player in this league? Yeah, after something as stupid as that I might not say anything anymore about someone elses basketball knowledge.
 
Assuming McGary's health than BRule what do you think he will be? Lets put it out there instead of your usual just laughing at others while never making a declarative statement on your own.

KD's played like 23-24 games.

Butler is worn down, Thibs NEVER rests him, even in blowouts, god knows why.

It wasnt.

All OKC fans should, Reggie is still a hell of a player, but he has acted like a petchulant child since the Waiters deal.

Still a top 15-20 PG.

I think the point is that you shouldn't be making declarative statements after one game... Good or bad.

It wasn't just one game. I watch the OKC Blue play believe it or not from time to time. I've seen a bunch of McGary so far this season dating back to the summer league. His skillset is not common and will work well with KD/RW.

Again, I haven't said he would be a star but a better version of Collison when he was good is what I see.

This guy was looked at as a top pick after his freshman year for a reason. I'm glad his stock dropped and fell to the Thunder. This kid can play.

I don't deny what you say about him could be true. He has talent. Everyone in the NBA has, or at some point, had talent. But it's impossible to predict their future after one game playing against a deplorable Clips' bench.

I only watched in the tourney during his freshman year.

College basketball is awful. I don't glean much from that style of game. Now Mitch gets to play with players that actually know what thye are doing (regardless of how good the Wolverines were the last few years). My track record is clear on this board. I have made many statements early on with nba players that you and many others have laughed at that have turned up roses for me. Just continue to ignore that and you will continue to look foolish.

McGary will be better than Collison when Nick was a good player. Book it...put it in your sig whatever you want to do. Just remember I said it and that you laughed about it.
