This league is built on those guys, you pretty much need a great (Top 10) wing to be anything. That's why the Rockets paid up for Harden, They cost you but those players make you. Toronto took some risks but I don't blame them for going after Gay.


Gay is not a top 5 SF though.

Plays like one when the game is on the line


Joe Johnson is the most clutch player this season, I still don't want him and he's still not the top-5 player at his position.
Same with Gay. Small sample size. He's obviously out to prove everybody wrong after the trade, but will it sustain? I doubt it.

:roll:

CBA doesn't work that way.

Unless you think that a mle level shooter is better for this team than our starting C, when our backups are Greg Stiemsma and the only person in the world that Adleman hates more than Derrick Williams (Chris Johnson).

Nowadays I just like to watch Rubio and see if he can increase his numbers towards last year after the slow start. Tonight's stats bring his numbers up! Yes!

Come on, even I, the most gullible and optimistic Wolf fan on this side of the ocean, knows this game is over. The refs will make sure of that. Even if they somehow reffed the game evenly from now on, Durant and Westbrook will kills us eventually, too.

Oh Kirilenko is opting out now.. I figured

“I’m going to wait until the offseason, right now there’s no point to make any decision,” he said. “Wait until summer, analyze the season, and see what you want to do next.”

Way to be a total non-factor tonight Pekovic. This disappearing act crap is starting to happen too often.

Ricky should have about 15 assists by now. It has to be frustrating to play with such incompetent players out there

It's pretty hard as a fan to watch them miss open jumper after open jumper, hard to imagine how it hurts for Ricky :(

Rubio got a taste of heaven when he was playing with Faried. Now he has an insatiable hunger for more.

What every one of our our best players demands a trade this summer? LOL

Don't worry guys, one day (probably after Kahn gets fired) we will bring in some good players, shooters and the like, who will deliver Rubio many dimes.

Ricky never gives up man. Obviously the game is out of reach and he's diving all over the place. Nobody else seems to care
