    The offense is very efficient under Nate, but they play at the league's slowest pace so "fun" ends up being a pretty subjective thing. Personally I like W's more than I do run-n-gun, so I think they are very "fun" to watch.

    Let's dovetail this with the GO/KD talk. Our offense is fine and playoff-level. It's our defense that needs serious work. Greg Oden helps to fix all that. On this team, Kevin Durant just becomes another option on an already excellent offense.

    lol. 28th in the league in fast break percentage? That must be some kind of record for the second youngest team in the league. Most young teams can't do much but finish on the break--Portland seems to do everything else.

    Well we're ~5th best team in the NBA and our defense isn't that hot, so it stands to reason that our offense is that good.

    We could always be like Golden State and score a shit load of points. That'd sure be fun.

    QFT. We do have a pretty efficient offense. And then when we do get easy points on the fast break, we usually win.. we just don't get that many.
