@Dominguezburner@TwoWayDav@UnderdogNBA Haliburton couldve scored 50 in game 7 and he still wouldnโt have averaged 20ppg that series. You ppl act like LeBron went down
@okcamars He was literally perfect for OKC.. The most NBA ready guy+ a position of need + the same age as the core guys . I was saying all pre draft that should be the guy
Ngl after doing a deep dive , I hope Presti keeps Chet and drafts Yaxel Lendeborg . I had no idea he how perfect of a fit he isโฆ 6โ10, 7โ4 wingspan , solid shooter , rebounds , great handle & can get his own shot
@CBD_Thunder In my post I said Yaxal instead of Mara if both werenโt possible.. Plenty of teams including Atlanta at #8 would have traded with OKC since they didnโt love anybody in particular in their range according to Windy
This Jdub injury is why Yaxel was needed more than Mara or both shouldโve been drafted since OKC has a million assets that canโt be used. I think they will be good but depth at the wing has always been a problem
@FinnBorgar@VoidzMo@okcamars No i understand & agree with you. Iโm saying literally only 2 NBA teams had 25M of cap space this summer.. Only 1 the year before that
@CBD_Thunder I donโt think you realize how many assets they have over the next 3 years . Impossible to use all of them & also never gonna use them on a star player.. Wonโt be another NBA ready wing like Yaxel for years to come
Jaquez is probably the closest you can get to Jdub at the wing . 6โ6 3 level scorer who doesnโt need help creating his own shot + solid rebounder . He doesnโt hold a candle to Jdub on defense but with the triplets on the back end that may not matter
There is no way to fill Jdub shoes with 1 player . OKC should go after both Jamie Jaquez & Max Christie. (Yes they can acquire both & stay under the cap) use the 15.1M exception on Jaquez & give up Topic . Give Dallas a few 2nds for Christie or a bad 1st .
