I guess you still don't realize that OKC had one of the most dominating seasons in recent memory last year.
4-1

I have nothing but respect for those players and organization. I just feel that Durant/RW took it to such an insane level last year that nobody was beating them in the West. I figured Miami would beat them but that was before I realized that Wade was a shell of himself. I think they would have won last year. This year will be a lot tougher because they need someone outside of the big 3 to step up. I think Reggie Jackson could be that guy but they are going to need more than that and I'm not sure they have itthis year.
In the last 3 years the Miami Heat have beaten OKC 8 times....the OKC Thunder have won 3 times.
Not sure how much that mattered for last year in the playoffs. You saw how Wade was playing. RW would have eaten him alive and they can't switch Lebron on him because then Durant would have went off.
Melo wants to test FA.
Thoughts on that Budden?
Clearly you missed this on the last page.....not shocking you take the headline and run with it. Any NBA writer with any brain has reported this isn't news, Melo has to opt out to get the most money from the Knicks OR he has to opt-out to create cap room for the Knicks to sign players before he re-signs. Everyone with a brain knows Melo isn't going anywhere.
Let's say the Knicks lose in the first round, decent possibility, you don't think he would consider leaving and joining Kobe in LA?
I would guess he stays because of the money aspect but it's not crazy to think he'd bolt to LA if they lose in the first round.
Considering he already said he isn't going to the Lakers? Yeah, I'd doubt it....He's not a LA guy, if he left the Knicks the only place I could see him going is Washington but I don't think they have the money and that's about a .00002% chance.
Melo runs the Knicks, why the hell would he leave that and leave 33 mil on the table?
Dwight left LA and left about the same on the table, who knows.
And LA will have mega cap space this summer.
You know who coaches LA right? You know who who couldn't coach Melo in NY, right? You know why Dwight left LA, right?
Whose to say MDA will coach LA after the year?
If they were going to fire him for a player, why wouldn't they have done it for Dwight? You make no sense
Using BRules logic, OKC can offer him the most money when it's time.
