I say George Paul and Westbrick will get past round 1, but doubtful for round 2. James Harden and CP0 aren't changing the landscape of the league either. The only way Houston or OKC will win a title is a major injury occurs to their opponent.
With Paul George moving West, only 1 of the top 14 players in last year’s #NBARank will be in the Eastern Conference.

I just made the same point about the East and West disparity 4 minutes before you posted. Nice job swagger jacking my material. Do you enjoy to plagiarize, because I don't think it's very cool.

Then once Lebron goes to LA the east will have none. Just contract the east and have the WCBA Western Conference Basketball Association.
You can thank Larry Bird for that one! Maybe was the worst GM in the NBA. Paul George announced what...18 months ago of his intentions? That gave Bird plenty of time, yet he did nothing.That's it. That's all the Pacers got in return... They (OKC) shed Oladipo's $21 mil/year contract in the process.
I'm a Russ fan, so I'm happy with what Sam Presti did. I've seen about a hundred different trades that the Pacers were offered and this trade was probably the worst in terms of returns for Indiana. I don't care though, I'm happy. Well, for the next year at least.You can thank Larry Bird for that one! Maybe was the worst GM in the NBA.

Larry firing Vogel was a disastrous move also...hope new GM Kevin Pritchard can do better with what Bird left him.
Curry gets 5 year 201 million dollar contract. Highest paid player in NBA history. For these last few years his contract was the biggest bargain in nba history.
Nice of KD to take less, so that Curry can be the highest paid player in NBA. Am I the only one who can't stand Curry?? Love his game, but don't like his antics on the floor or his attitude. Just something about him rubs me the wrong way. Good for him though raking in the money.
Also, being a Wolves fan, not sure yet how I feel about the Rubio- Teague deal??
Teague's ok. Nice offensive player but he's not much of a high screen defender. He's slow fighting through screens or he just goes underneath, which is death against a good PG. Odd choice for a defense oriented coach like Thibs.
Thibodeau completely transformed the formerly-laid back Noah into a defensive monster.Teague's ok. Nice offensive player but he's not much of a high screen defender.

I agree. I think the Wolves need more of a distributor PG like Rubio is, versus a scoring PG. Wolves will have PLENTY of scoring options, just need a PG to get them the ball IMO. Would like to see Monte up there as a backup. Just go out there, run the show, get others the ball, don't turn it over, play the pick and roll beautifully, etc, etc
