Ibn Battuta 127 Report post Posted June 25, 2016 Continue to decline and put up much better numbers, that's generally the mark of a player on the decline. I loled when I read that too 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the notorious S.A.C. 89 Report post Posted June 25, 2016 If we wanted a shot blocking interior defender on the decline then I'm sure we could have signed d12 as a free agent and kept every one of our assets...or at least used them to get a better value. Look rob has had his hands on the wheel for many years now and at best we have a fair team. At worst we have a team still four years and a lot of luck away from a contender. Rob is done here and got fleeced again. He is still light years better than Otis. Best bet for our team is Devos sells to an owner who is less tolerant of a poorly performing team. The fact that Devos is fine with another crappy year is the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Awesome bro, keep up the good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaceman 58 Report post Posted June 25, 2016 I think what might be getting lost her is that we just got a new coach, hopefully a good one and I'm sure he had some input on this trade. Now sure Victor was a fan favorite but not a top ten two guard and many emotional fans will hate to see him go, I may be one of them but your not going to get a good player without giving something up. The fact is Rob has spent the last four years collecting assets and it is now time to turn them into a cohesive team. His next move in free agency will tell a more complete story.

But that risk could still pay off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flgatorsandmagic 9 Report post Posted June 25, 2016 Serge Ibaka was +38 in the OKC-GS series, the best +/- of any Thunder player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 25, 2016 Serge Ibaka was +38 in the OKC-GS series, the best +/- of any Thunder player. This is kinda misleading because he was only positive in two games. He wss much better against San Antonio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Catalina Maria 64 Report post Posted June 25, 2016 Look, I get that you think Ibaka is winning the MVP this year. We all get it by now. I think we could've gotten more, simple as that. Really? Stupid Henny!!! Such a poor record of making a mess of things!!! Like that one time he gave up D12 for worthless pieces. He clearly doesn't know what he's doing and never does his research! And if Ibaka leaves us next year, we are screwed!!! This trade gives us no flexibility!!!! Dipo was the key to getting us into the playoffs this year. Without him, we are back in the lottery!

Catalina Maria 64 Report post Posted June 25, 2016 That's two people calling for Ibaka to win the MVP now. No. I didn't say that... Ibaka's skill set makes us a better team. Without Dipo in the roster will allow us to rely more on Hezonja, a more talented offensive player. I think we are a better team, and I hope I am proven correct.
