Don't get your hopes up, cause Boston is still beating that team in 5. And i am not even sure if they are coming outta the west, cause everyone is coming fir smoke. Denver massively underperformed and Mavs, Wolves etc. are looking promissing as well.

@@kjjr3270 i’ll be honest on paper. I think we should be favored over Boston better defensively probably much better rebounding wise now three-point shooting theoretically we should be but that’s the one area that I’m not so sure of yet Boston should be favored just because of the defending champions, but I see no reason why at least on paper why Oklahoma City couldn’t beat them we fixed our only two holes

As a spurs fan idc about Minnesota, Denver, Dallas…. OKC is the real threat, now and long term in the west…. Their future picks, Shei as an MVP candidate, and their stacked team (including their recent pickups this offseason) …. Teams in the west have to really think about how they’re handling their future cause OKC is gonna be a Monster for years to come…. I believe the spurs are up for the challenge eventually especially with our draft picks for the 25 draft but we really have to be carful if we wanna compete with OKC long term.

Great insights into the on court value of both these high impact "role players." Caruso does indeed make plays that don't loom large in the box score but win ball games. On winning teams such as Okc where detail counts? Yup. Down the stretch, in the clutch. Bulls were the winningest team in clutch time last season. Two reasons. DeMar and AC. That doesn't happen without one or the other. Alex does "the little things that count." Now when he does them it'll actually mean something bigger.

Imagine the first 2 subbed off are Chet and Dort only for AC & iHart to check in. Jdub is gonna FEAST with iHart’s screens. The rest of the league is gonna have to faces the fact that the #1 team in the west upgraded their 2 weakest links, Josh and Hayward, with 2 incredible defenders… in the draft why got one of the top 5 players in the draft by selecting Topić, and they didn’t give up any 1st round picks throughout this whole offseason. Incredible.
@kayonzo48332 күн бұрын
Big day, 6 man with an OKC vid :). As a German fan, I am ofc super excited by the additions to the team. Hartenstein especially will look like a beast dishing out assists to all the smart cutters we already have. An amszing fit, who won't take away too many shots of the star trio and who fills all the gaps we had last year. I also think is touch is underrated, + he used to be able to shoot a little bit. If he gets fully unlocked and the social fit with the young group is great, I truly believe that these acquisitions can get us over the hump in the West (although I would never count out Jokic). Will miss Josh in OKC, but it just wasn't meant to work out. The situation here was unfortunate for him here, still rooting for him and believing in his all star potential...

Always nice to hear from you Kayonzo, I agree with the Hartenstein assessment. I didn't go all the way in depth on his screening and everything he can do on both ends because I wanted to talk about Caruso and some other guys but he's just gonna be such a perfect fit and the contract will work out well because its front loaded
