PJ Washington is currently doing that exact Aaron Gordon thing that was mentioned: - former lottery pick - underwhelming on a bad team - same age as Gordon when he was traded - does all the winning things a contender needs Ironically, Kuzma was probably right. If DAL got Kuzma instead of PJ they probably wouldn't be contenders. That guy turned this defense from near bottom of the league to maybe the best defense in the NBA
I've been clamoring for OKC to go an get Deni for awhile now man. Literally fits seamlessly for how the thunder like to play 🔥
OKC doesn’t need KD. They need more muscle, they need their Aaron Gordon. Funny, because PJ Washington would have really helped them in a series like this.
The Thunder need to put the ball through the hoop more times than the Mavericks. If they can't do that, well, next year is looking great for OKC. Returning all the players with enough cap space they could sign a max contract player if they wanted (they shouldn't do that... but they have the money). Just gotta let these 21-23 year old players get another year of playing.
OKC is going to be scary next year.

I need Luka to be like Jordan and deny future H.O.F’s from getting rings
DeRozan to Miami could be amazing, especially if they could get a center like Hartenstein. Only issue is that they got a bad front office

But those players are still missing open shots they usually wouldn’t. Dallas are defending well so I’m not mentioning contested ones but PJW is hitting every open shot but Joe, Dort etc aren’t.

@@FreeBandz658they’re technically open but not the same shots they were getting in the regular season. They didn’t have to really go against a defense that would hone in on their guard screens. Additionally, even open shots don’t feel as open when you’ve been run off the line continuously before that shot.

@@ImMe20127 Joe has hit 41% both of the last two years on about 5 per game off the bench, over 850 shots. The best young bench shooter in the league the past two seasons. OKC had 3 of the top 20 3pt shooters in the NBA this season, JDub/Cason/Joe, all on decent volume (JDub needs to shoot more though).

Yea they had the most efficient 3 point offense. No they didn't make more because they didn't take more. I'd rather have more efficient shooters than guys who just throw up 3's every game.
Nico is the reason Dallas improved, killing it this year. He saw it when others didn't and used what he had in capitol to get it. OKC has been amazing in team building. They have the capitol, yet surprised me picking up Hayward. HAYWARD! really. Yet the fans said his experience and DA DA DA would help. Yea sure. The Pacers went out and got Siakam. JJR was free for Dallas. Washington Jr and Gafford have paid off. Nico is the man.

OKC fan here- We need to get KD. He fits the 2-3 year window of cap space we have until we need to pay Chet & Jdub

I'd take a shot at PG13 first. Two way player, younger, and a lot right in place for Giddy (big upgrade).

OKC fan here we don’t need KD, we need to trade Giddey and a first for Deni Avdija, he’s young, on a very team friendly deal on 4 year $55 million and he can make up for the things Giddey brings such as playmaking and rebounding but he’s also a much better shooter,defender and scorer and then we should draft Cody Williams at 12 and look to add a guy like a Cam Johnson off the bench and maybe go after a Jonathon Isaac who can help defensively down low and help rebound

ESPN, please take down this show. Rando's randomly speculating, I'd rather listen to Legler.
