A starting lineup of
Shai/Dort/Dub/Lauri/Chet
Is scary
He also covers a lot of wholes on our team and fits in like a glove he’s a year older then SGA and fits our timeline perfectly.
But regardless of what happens we’re so good rn and will only get better.
Kenrich Williams will be valuable in the playoffs and keeps us flexible. Let Presti do his thing
Goodness this team would be so busted (not like it isn’t already lol)
I’d give you an award if I could
Mods can we please ban these shit trade idea posts every day. We’re not trading for Lauri, Mikal Bridges, Vuc, or any other person making 30 million that does nothing to make us better. If we do any kind of move it’ll be something like moving bertans or Mann for more 2nd rounders
“We”? Are you French? Who is “we”?
The Thunder are on 58 win pace. They are already legit contenders. Right now, they have minimum probably a 40% chance against anybody in the West except for a healthy Denver. I don’t want anybody to get injured but it happens. And being in place to swoop in and snatch a finals appearance if that happens isn’t a bad place to be.
The other thing to consider is that Lauri isn’t being shopped. Utah wants him on their team and he seemingly wants to be there. The only way good players get traded in the NBA is if they demand a trade or make it clear they aren’t resigning and their contract is ending. To get Lauri from Utah it would take a dramatic overpay from OKC (Jdub + Dort + Giddy + Several 1rps).
I’m a firm believer people hate Giddey because he doesn’t play hero ball like Russ
He’s just not that good
You people aren’t privy to basketball. Complaining just to complain. It’s not criticism. It’s just shit
I personally wishes he didn’t disappear in close 4th quarter games outside of inbounding. Volumes are spoken when Wiggins comes in for nut cracking time.
Josh is only in his 3rd year so I know that by his 5th my comment may be irrelevant, but it’s noticeable when all the starters expect him are on the floor and it happened last year too
He’s the 4th best player on the team.
Kenrich is a better player than Giddey
That’s a stupid fucking comment LMAO
Yeah I’m sure it has nothing to do with the fact that he’s a negative and tanks every lineups net rating.
