Against the Pacers.
Yawn.
Talk to me when he does this against some elite defender.
They play in GS on Friday, anything short of 30+ points on 50% shooting im trolling.

He did it against Roberson and the Thunder like 5 days ago.
It's so funny how bitter you are about that trade.

Roberson isnt good, im not sure what has to do with anything.
Secondly, i've said before the trade was awful, but Harden would never be what he was if he was on OKC.
Harden, Russ, and KD are all alpha-dogs, they'd make it work im sure, but he wouldnt be the player he is sharing lots of touches with KD and Russ, even Ibaka.
He's a great player. Not bitter about a thing.

Roberson is an awesome defender. That's what it has to do with this situation. Ask thethe.

He's a good defender but when teams dont have to pay attention to him on offense, it doesnt matter.
He needs to be benched, and you'll laugh for Waiters, or Morrow.

Keep what up? He's playing just like he always has but shooting at a 45% clip rather than his normal 40-41% and 37% from 3 rather than 33% everything else is the same. He's actually taking 2 more shots per game with OKC than he was with Cleveland....he's also passing less, not sure how that is possible though.
He's actually played acceptable defense. I'm just asking a question. He had a pretty good sophomore season but kind of got lost in the shuffle with Lebron/Love coming over this year. He definitely has talent but its a wildcard for sure.

In what world was Waiters good last year?
He had a PER of 14 and yet had a 26 USG......the dude is a selfish gunner that can't shoot well.
As a second year player on an awful team? Let's see if being around a good team changes things. Basketball more than any other sport has a lot of factors that go way beyond an indivdual.

What does it matter if he was on an awful team? He wasn't the 1st or 2nd option, teams weren't game planning or doubling Dion Waiters......read any scouting report on the kid and they all say he's a gunner with a me-first attitude.
But hey, enjoy the 5 games or whatever he's played with OKC and think that's the norm.
Never said this was the norm. Just saying he showed improvement from tear 1 to year 2 and got lost on that cavs team. He has been good so far with the thunder. I didn't think it would work but still would have done the deal because we didn't give up much. I'm encouraged though with what I've seen. 5 straight games of 15+ is huge for this team. They get anything out of the benbench and are really tough to beat. I think you would agree with that.
