Kevin Durant and Thunder Got Next

[playmaker88]

When did the Lakers come to an end.. i will say they will be a force to be reckoned with they have a lot of talenton that team.

 

[long_tong]

I'm still not sold on them. They are gonna have to show me more. I think they need some good vets on the bench and a real big man at PF. Jeff Green is a small forward in every way. I'm seeing 7th or 8th seed again this year.

 

[Darius]

got next at what? i dont speak swahili

 

[-JB-]

The only team the Thunder won't be able to really compete with, not even compete, more like they can't beat out West in a 7 game series this year is The Lake Show.

I can see them making a jump up this season from an 8th seed last year to being one of the top 4 seeds out West this year.

and i dont see Ollie's name

[Based GAWD]

Lakers will be done after this season. I give them at most 2 years.

they are done after this season, but you are giving them 2 years before they are done?

Kind of like how the Clippers had next back in the day?

The Lakers still have another 2-3 years, Miami will be there, and so will the Magic. Keep in mind that alot of these bad teams are gonna start building up too (Knicks, Nets, Wizzards,etc).

Denver with George Carl and Carmelo > Thunder.
Healthy San Antonio > Thunder.
Dallas > Thunder.
Utah w/ Deron Williams and Al Jefferson = Thunder.
Lakers >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Thunder.

...We'll see just how effective Durant is this season. He's just now reaching people's radar, so now they will start to make defensive strategies based solely on his offensive tendencies.

Also, I'm pretty sure he ain't scoring anywhere near 30ppg this season simply because Westbrook is starting to bloom, and he'll begin to take shots that he normally wouldn't.

Trust me, they gon make a huge jump to 2nd seed. Only Lakers can shut down this young,energetic & talented Team. I jus dont see any other team in the West stoppin them. This team dont need vets, it has been rebuildin since 08. As for a Real Big Man, Serge Ibaka wil get the job done. He held his own against Gasol & the Laker bigs. This is a team on the rise. Like i said, give them 3 years and theyl own the game.

I aint disputin none of this, like i said Thunder wil b the best team in the league in 3 years time unless either one of the dudes i mentioned becomes injury prone or gets traded. No team aside from the Lakers and the Heat got that madd talent in they roster. You cats dont realise that this team has potentially the greatest pure scorer the league wil ever see, a Point guard that wil be averagn triple doubles in the near future and possibly a top 5 centre in the league in 3 years time...

Harden, Ibaka, and Jeff Green are not good players on a championship team.

Harden is a 7th man at best, Jeff Green is way undersized and should be coming off the bench on a better team, and Ibaka won't really progress into anything special imo. He will be a big piece of the team for his size, but I don't see anything more than a 12-8 guy.

They're building which is a good thing, but I don't see them being serious contenders for another 3-4 years and that's only with different players to compliment Durant and Westbrook cause the guys they have now,,,,, naw.

 

[playmaker88]

lakers will be around for at least the next 3 years.. and after that.. then a proper assessment of their future can be made.. .. theres alof of good teams in the west.. OKC is just another one.. Durant is on his way but will he be more than the numbers who knows.. his jumpshot is his x-factor that he holds over many.. but can he lead , can he be a superstar.. yet to be seen.. contrary to popular belief but he is well on his way.

Like i say shit is not a perfect science in 3-4 years.. niggas dont grow their game.. teams dont automatically take that step up.. nothin is in stone.. let the boys play.

Keyword: 3 years. Im surprised how most of yall are criminally underatin thunder. Time is of the essence. Jus watch Thunder dismantle teams this season. As much as i believe in duncan, if he is countin on gettin help from the injury prone duo, ginobli and parker then spurs aint goin nowhere. Mavs are jus chokers. Nuggets are meehhh. Jazz jus lost Boozer. The troika of Durant-Westbrooke-Ibaka is takin over this league in 3 years. It is what it is. Bron better start winnin now.
