    Got to say: mad props to Sam Presti. One of his few black marks was giving Kanter that monster contract, and now he's dumped it for a shorter one.

    Westbrook did not hide his disdain for Kanter when he did not play D. I wonder how that will work with Melo?
    Paul George was a great pick up for OKC. This move was OK as they did not give up much for Melo. But doesn't George want to be the man when the game is on the line? This is a one year experiment in OKC.

    Who's left out there for us to get mad about when they go to some other team?

    I don't think it says anything about Dame and CJ. Russ is an MVP. OKC gets more exposure than Portland. Oh and then there's Paul Fucking George.

    Got to say, I don't envy Billy Donovan.

    Knicks can never have too much depth at C.

    Hernangomez
    Noah
    Kanter
    O'Quinn

    I think OKC probably wanted out of Kanter's contract anyway. They just got 2 superstars for spare parts.

    Rockets vs. OKC is going to be the biggest collection of stars competing to watch Golden State and San Antonio play in the West Finals.

    That implies that Vonleh was ever a reason that the Blazers would be surprisingly good.
