Why don't we just make fun of you?

I'm going to roast you that night. 

Staying on-topic, who are some of everyone's favourite draft prospects? Don't follow college hoops much at all but I liked the little I saw from De'Aaron Fox. Think he could be an All-Star one day.

Him, Ball and Fultz are legit.

 

And I suppose I deserve it.

"Butt" is filtered because people call each other that and it gets combined into nasty words.

I wouldn't be so down on Victor Oladipo. He's gotten more efficient every season, with his FG% and 3PT% rising in each of his first 4 seasons and his TOs dropping as well. Not a defensive liability. Solid starter in my book. Naming him as the Thunder's 4th best player is perhaps a bit low.

As a Magic fan I feel like what you see at this point is more or less what you get with Oladipo. He can play solid man defence (he can body someone up and stick with them) but his team defence (which is a bigger part of the modern game imo) isn't so flash. Attacking the rim hasn't been an issue per se but he's never been able to draw fouls for some reason. His gameplay's always been streaky too - he'll play extremely well for a while (like he did earlier on this season) but then he'll go through games where he can't even make layups. This is a contract year for him too. I'd say he's better than OKC's 4th best simply by virtue of being capable of having a presence on both sides of the court, but I think that says more about the team outside Westbrook than it does about him.

Just straight up.. Screw the Warriors. Screw James Harden. I hope Westbrook wins the MVP over you. I hope that the idiot analyitics guys get their head out of their butts and finally admit that Kobe >>> Harden..

 

That said. Kobe won 5 championships. He lost 2. 5-2=3. The amount of MVPs Kobe won was 1. The amount that he should have is at least 3. 

 

Put 3 and 1 next to each other, and you should get 3-1.

 

The Warriors blew a 3-1 lead. Never forget.
