Breh sefalosha averaged 43% from the 3 on the 3 attempts a game one season. As far as offense goes Roberson is in a trash league of his own
Don't just breeze through stats. 42 games 71 shots 43%.. No way in hell should he have been starting over Harden..

First round? Shiiit as bad as they're playing right now I'd give them a damn GOOD shot against Steph-less Warriors.

My ideal path for GS to the Finals actually would be Jazz, Thunder, Rockets :ohlawd:

That'd be legit af. They go through that and I'll never talk about their easy path again. But if OKC faces Rockets first round and Warriors luck continues while not even being the top seed, maaan
full

Are you just assuming that Kawhi ain't coming back?

Spurs with Kawhi are a more frightening prospect than anyone other than the Rockets. OKC has the pieces but as long as Westbrook is leading then I don't see how they're going to use those pieces with the necessary effectiveness.

Obviously breh, but Sefalosha isn't as bad as Roberson at shooting and is pretty much average from the 3. I picked an outlier, dude is a 35% 3 point shooter, about average and will make you pay if you leave him open. Roberson can just be ignored on d.

Presti covered his bases though, getting Russ locked into that deal will allow them to move him if they need to.

I can already see the Knicks giving up a lot for him.
I don't see it at all

Knicks don't got trade for Russell Westbrook assets breh. I could see the Bucks or the Raptors going after him though.

Paul George should have been the number #1 offensive option but Russ won't ever defer

Also the team still suffering from their whole build the team around KD & Russ with people who are good at one thing and horrible at everything else but they not even good at that one thing

:hhh: Obviously he wasn’t starting over harden cause he was better. He was starting cause okc wanted to stagger the minutes so harden could be on the court less with kd and Russ and dominate against other teams 2nd unit. Which is exactly what he did. He destroyed everybody 2nd unit until the finals, where he just went cold.

You don't need to stagger minutes.. that's like saying golden State should bench klay Thompson so he can score for the 2nd unit.. maybe harden should come off the bench in houston.. You know how dumb that sounds

George is not a #1 option. He is inconsistent and refuses to drive at times

Bad example. Klay is a two-way player. Harden was a liability on defense. OKC's bench has the same problem they had when all 4 stars were there.


Golden State had a good bench though with guys they signed for cheap. OKC didn't have that luxury. They had to keep hitting on picks. After a while, it stopped happening on the level they were used to.
