Ben Simmons passing is ridiculous.


Having him and Saric on the floor at the same time will be all kinds of fun.

Been watching the summer league I guess?

 

I did hear that the No 1 and No 2 picks and their respective teams were going to meet play a game, but I didn't see it.
Pistons quietly having a solid offseason by replacing Steve Blake with Ish Smith and Anthony Tolliver with Jon Leuer.

Brandon Ingram is unstoppable in summer league play. Lakers got the real #1 overall pick.
Draymond Green arrested for assault.....

Simmons has been putting on a passing display in the SL. Gonna have trouble scoring his rookie year, but his vision is incredible.
Do you think Draymond went for the jewels. lol
UNF's Beau Beech made the best of his summer league opportunity and just signed a contract with the Nets. Pretty cool.

Will be interesting to see how he develops in the D-league and if he can turn that into a full time spot on the roster. Would be awesome to see someone from UNF playing in the NBA.
The next Chandler Parsons

The Ponte Vedra Beach area is rich in NBA potential.

Westbrook signs three year deal with OKC, which is essentially a one year extension.

 

Still probably will leave in 2018.

Will be interesting to see how OKC operates as "His" team. The guy is a gamer.

Westbrook has that Michael Jordan tenacity that I like. Too bad his perimeter shooting isn't that good.

I'm now scratching my head over the Oladipo acquisition.  Now that we know Westbrook will be there 2 more seasons, the Thunder would benefit more from a true #2 that can shoot the 3.  Westbrook and Oladipo in the backcourt doesn't appear to be a good fit.  Heck, I think Durant was a better outside shooter than Oladipo.  Their lane is going to get too clogged.

 

Update:  Actually, it's not even close, Durant is a much better shooter than Oladipo --- even from the 3 point line.

 

2016-2017 Thunder --- Traffic Jam in the paint

 

Record Prediction:  45 Wins - 37 Losses ---- that's a 12 games swing and places them back to where they were in 2015 when Durant missed 55 games.

Like JJ Reddick and Matt Dellavedova --- killer instinct.
