Not true. Last year OKC was one of the worst in AST but that will be fixed this year thanks to K mart. He's cuts and moves without the ball better than Harden. You can argue that's fine but I've noticed a difference in just 2 games. As we speak he's putting up Harden off the bench numbers

Again, I won't say we are better or worse for at least 18 more games. I just think it's a bit premature thinking we aren't able to win the West again this year.

Numbers can be deceiving, they are going to miss Harden in the fourth quarter. He often ran the show late, and was by far their best decision maker. He makes smart plays and players better, Martin does not. Anyone who says they are comparable players is crazy! IMO

Yeah cause Martin is gonna stick Kobe or Lebron come playoff time, or run the team in the fourth quarter, or play any sort of defense.

Remember this when Westbrook shoots goes 9-23 and has six turnovers in the Western Conference Finals.

Exactly. Harden helped when this would happen cause he could run the point. Was great at getting people involved, something Martin simply can't do. People forget Harden was the big reason OKC beat the spurs. Clutch shot after the clutch shot in that series.

Didn't help last year even with Harden, I don't care if they got Pippen they aren't winning when Westbrook shoots 17%

I love that you totally ignored this post, cause you can't dispute it. And twisted my words in a different one instead. Lol

I agree with you on that post. Were you a Sonics fan or just after the OKC move?

I grew up in GA but couldn't stand the Hawks, didn't like anything about them. Became more of a player chaser. Watched AI at Georgetown, became a 76er fan, followed him around to Denver, Detroit, and briefly Memphis. Had the privilege of going to a UCLA game when visiting one year with an in law, saw Westbrook. Wife grew up in Texas, saw Durant. It all just kind of happened. :loco:

I understand why people would consider me a bandwagoner because it's somewhat true. A year ago I tried keeping up with Golden State and the Bucks because of Jennings and Ellis. When Ellis went to the Bucks I was ecstatic. Just from personal experience I love watching OKC and I'll support them forever. I still have a soft spot for Philly
