I still believe that westbrook can lead the team in the playoffs, the team is very good in rebounding and defense as well. With him to fully take control of the game as the point guard that has a big responsibility in offense too, he cannot lose his rhythm as the ball will be with him most of the time.

Without KD in Thunder, still OKC will be a playoff team. I see that they are still good. Westbrook has a big heart and he can carry Thunder up to the playoff but the fact is just in playoff. Not bad.

yes and if only he took over and didn't ask for help for durant from that game 7 against gsw i think they have a better chance to win kd got choked from that game leading the okc to lose in the final match but moving forward i can see that now westbrook will take the lead they can go and manage to be back from the play offs just hoping to win hahaha.

Well that's not out of the question really, remember when Durant was out and Westbrook almost single handedly put them through the playoffs? I think "losing" Ibaka was a very good move too so let's see. The West have a only 3 or 4 great teams, the rest are nothing special. I think the Timberwolves will surprise a lot of people this year.

We know westbrook is a beast but with their line up their gonna have a hard time to win. They need a big man that can score. Steve Adams is great defender and rebounder but Westbrook need another scorer inside to open up for him.

If it's a consolation, they have Al Horford, who is also a big man with a decent perimeter game. The league is slowly moving away from the big man game as evidenced by the small ball approach revolutionized by the Golden State Warriors on their way to record-setting seasons.  I think if Westbrook doesn't get traded they will still get a chance to make it to the playoffs, at a lower seed this time, maybe in the 5th to 8th spot in the ultra competitive Western conference.

Westbrook is something to watch this season, he was trusted by the OKC and he is the only one who will be blame in case they will not succeed to get it the playoffs so the pressure also in him is very heavy and he loves that to prove he is a legitimate MVP.

we will going to watch and see how far can he take the lead we all knew that they are in the west and hottest team are there so better watch out if how westbrook will prove himself, i think if he can get support from a defensive players they can proceed to playoffs.

the added poll is really funny. Whoever votes for the knicks needs to get their head checked lol. Or a super fan cause there is no
way the knicks are making it past lebron lol. Maybe the playoffs? depending if their old team doesnt get hurt.

Yes probably knicks would be taking lebron so hard but who knows? we can't really tell what would really going to happen. Of course those persons who voted knicks are a solid fans i think lol.

Lebron is the superstar in his era and the knicks could not match the current line up of the cavaliers as they are a new line up which still needs familiarity with the play and its new teammates, it takes time to achieve their goal to match but they are aging every season especially anthony.

He's not gonna leave OKC. He's aiming the highest salary ever in the NBA, 3 years from now.

I agree New York Knicks needs time to build their chemistry this season and they have to stay healthy. For now, they are not gonna beat Lebron and the cavaliers or even the Indiana Pacers.

Lance Stephenson remains an NBA free agent and he may have to head overseas to find a deal.Stephenson averaged 14.2 points per game in 26 games with the Memphis Grizzlies but they didn't pick up their team option.he clearly remains talented but teams have likely been reluctant to take a chance on his sometimes difficult personality.i think he may go to The Cavs as they lost Delly

You can't make even %20 of NBA earnings in overseas. It's the last option for an NBA player. Veteran contracts still got million of dollars every year. NBA contracts are ridiculous. It wasn't same 20 years ago, now teams don't even check for salary cap and build super teams with at least 3 superstar players near to the maximum contract.

i think he should see if Chicago gives him a year contract... he'd fit great behind rondo, d wade & butler big upgrade from snell & canaan

With the current line up of the chicago bulls, they are still a threat due to its defense, the current line are full of veteran players. Having wade in the line up and a possible addition of lance would be fun to watch though they will not reach the finals.

Just saw this report on the wire that Mark Cuban doesn't think we should send
pros to the Olympics anymore.

Not sure why he cares so much... He only has Bogut who isn't even good enough to
make USA team, he's playing for australia. 

Dude is such a moron would he rather we send high school kids and get our butts
 kicked?

[Mongwapogi]

What Lebron did to Steph and Klay is underrated

Even as much as we talk about it, it's still not enough. He broke both of them, he took their souls. They started talking shit about the Bron Bron and then he came out like a basketball God and made them run to the locker room and cry. Klay wouldn't even look at Lebron after the game to shake hands, that "man" ran away and cried on the floor. He broke that team, it was so bad they had to get another broken man to help them.

Well I can definitely understand that NBA teams have nothing to gain really from the Olympics and they are a risk for the players in terms of getting injured (Paul George anyone?). But I agree that international level is top notch, even NBA based teams lost against Argentina and similar squads in the past so I don't see a College or a Euroleague American players team having a shot at gold against Spain, Australia, France, etc...

Even a sub par NBA team would have a hard time (Let's say for example a starting five of Isaiah Thomas, CJ Mccollum, Wesley Matthews, Kenneth Faried & Eric Monroe). That's a very good team but I can't really say they would bring the gold.

These huge contracts are brought about by the collective bargaining agreement, which the players fought so hard to reach. With income from broadcasting partnerships, the money just flows and the players are not going to let the owners have it all. After all, they are the ones busting their ass off night in and night out while the owners sit in the court side enjoying the game and laughing all the way to the bank on their way out.

yes but anything could happen right? That is why i will always argue with predictions that this one will surely wins lol. It happens to pacquaio and marquez 3 boxing. It was predicted that pacquiao surely dominates and yes it happens but that lucky punch end it all and it will surely going to happen also in other sports like basketball

Yes the NBA teams have nothing to gain, but I think Olympics is the battle of the best of the best. They shoukd still send theirs best player of any country. Your competing for the pride and honor of your country.

USA should send their best players from the NBA to compete in the Olympics or the other countries will eat their players alive. One time they send College and Minor league player into the Olympics and they only got bronze medal. If they want to keep their title as the best in basketball, they should send their NBA star players.

They did already, they are sending their best player and simple the other countries just can't match the skills and strength of the USA team. They are the best in the world and they have proven that several times already.

I just even wish that they send a team that is not so good so I can see a good match up for the game, apparently the current line up of the USA is unbeatable and it is clear already that they will bring home the gold medal in the basketball game.
