Wasn't actually serious, should have never used the word "die"...

With KD we're on a 62 win pace. In a normal year that's right there fighting for tops in the league. Unfortunately, this isn't a normal year.

I'm headed there now, I'm back!

Good game, I really think they're clicking for the first time this year, and I like where they are.

Also up to 7th in D rating.

Let's start a crowdfunding project to get Dion out of OKC. He's so terrible.

What's the current feeling here, about KD resigning with Thunder this summer ?

Listening to KD talk about Russ, I just can't imagine those two not playing their entire career together , but hey, sometimes I don't get this NBA thing.

I feel the same, I don't see either leaving. I'll say that barring something weird happening, or I could also see an end of career, old guy KD going to play in DC for the hometown crowd when he's in his late 30s.

Just wish he'd say something like Conley did today, where he was asked on a scale of 1 to 10 how hard it would be to leave Marc in free agency. His reply? "An 11".

Yeah, that'd be nice.

Irrational excitement about Payne now (for the moment anyway) replaced by irrational excitement that Kyle Singler might actually be a serviceable 3 and D guy.

I don't see any overexcitement about Singler. Glad he looks like he can dribble a ball w/o falling over more like it. And Payne is exciting because he's young and actually can run the bench. Augustin was a wreck, the bench is actually playable now.

I'd like to have some stronger signals before the end of March , when I have to decide on renewing my season tickets.

I feel that. But let's not undersell what Singler could potentially bring to the table here. He was never as bad as he played since coming here (and sure as heck not as bad as he had been the first 40 games or so of this season). His first three seasons in Detroit he shot from 35% from 3 as a rookie then steadily progressed all the way to 40% last season before the trade. The guy could be really helpful for our offense.

If nothing else it could pave the way for less minutes of Dion. And less minutes for Dion is a good thing.
