    KG was traded back to the Wolves? Is this official?

    The analysts on NBA TV are falling over themselves on how good OKC just got. Sure they are better at C, but DJ Augustine off the bench is a massive downgrade from Reggie.

    I'm just really not that impressed with Kanter. He's good but not great.

    Nobody will want to play OKC.

    I'm hoping for a Blazers - Thunder WCF. Would be absolutely epic.

    Holy shit so many trades. Why did the Bucks trade their near All Star point guard Brandon Knight? They're having a great season. I'm confused. Can anyone explain this to me. Knight has worked his ass off to get to playoffs and now he doesn't get to enjoy the fruits of his labors?

    The Thunder have tons of wing talent now, but where will the playing time go? Is Roberson out of the picture? Will Singler back up Durant full time? Lot's of questions here. But they sure picked up some good talent for sure, no denying. It'll be interesting to see how they all gel.

    I'm hoping for a Blazers - T'Wolves WCF. Hey, if I'm going to pick a team, I want it to be the worst one possible!

    They will be lucky to take the Warriors to 6 games if they can't get higher than the 8 seed. Their D just isn't championship caliber and the bench is so-so.

    upcoming free agent, worried about how much he'd want when he's probably best off as 3rd guard. Got 2 PGs in Ennis and MCW on rookie deals, and a decent big in Plumlee.

    I am pissed that Utah would do that. A division rival? They helped OKC. But then I guess Denver helped us.....

    The good news is neither Kantor nor likely Perkins will play against us on Friday.

    Houston and OKC have some big bench question marks. Not a lot of proven playoff talent there.

    Denver got some young talent that they can tryout plus a pick. I don't understand why Utah would give up a offensively solid C that is only 22 years old? He's a big body and will only get better. They don't just grow on trees. What am I missing?

    Kanter will get abused on defense. He isn't that good he is basically a big version of Brandon Bass.

    Once Adams comes back they'll have either Adams/Kanter off the bench, along with Collison, Waiters, Singler, Augustin, Morrow and Lamb. Seems decent to me.
