and okc finally have a Center. perkins is only 24 i think should be good enough for OKC beside perkins was going leave boston due to him not getting enough credit as the big 3+1 there...

He doesn't care about being the star. Celtics wouldn't be able to afford him in the off season cause he'll prolly end up around $8m in the FA.

Chatting on a forum in the Australia thread is hardly stalking.

He doesn't deserve attention anyway. He's a good defensive player but can't do much on the other end.

OKC are the 2nd worst 3pt shooting team in the NBA last time I checked....

They have a great perimeter scorer in Durant, Westbrook is still developing his outside game like most young point guards... but they are pretty awful from 3.

They have Dacquean Cook and now Nate who can knock down a 3 as well as James Harden but yeah, they're not exactly lights out or anything from 3 point range.
Westbrooks strength is his driving and mid range jumper.

Something that hasn't been mentioned is the Nazr Mohammed pickup which i like too as he's another good interior defender, rebounder and shotblocker and can put in a shot every now and then.
I did like Jeff Green but i think OKC did pretty well today (assuming Perkins stays healthy). Overnight OKC has gone from fairly weak inside defensively and rebounding wise to fairly strong in that department without really having to lose all that much.

outside scoring is not just about 3pt shots...

westbrook = mid range and drive
harden = 3pts and some drive
durant = everywhere.

maybe not outside scoring but their perimeter players are scoring beast so doesnt that qualify as outside scoring?

outside scoring in the nba is deemed as 3 point shooters or long 2 pointers (of which thunder is terrible) - mid range shooters are mid range shooters ie westbrook , carmello ,etc .


i go for the thunder and i love this trade but calling them beastly from the outside is a joke.

so 2 decent 3pt shooter is not enough to qualify as a good outside team?

they would put up better numbers if they have an inside scoring presence...

and per usu, you guys take things too seriously... whats wrong with calling a team beast... I call everything beastly so...

laters :p
