Is there a FA PG you have your eyes on this offseason?

Minnesota has no cash, so maybe Tyus Jones if he wants to come back home for the minimum?


He seems to be the hot name on the circuit. I’d like to see a trade for Reed Sheppard

Minnesota pretty much has zero assets, so it's kinda cooked. :lol:

Conley has to be replaced. They need a scoring shooting PG. Trade Gobert for Luka. LOL.

So much plus defenders on the court for the Thunder.

The Pacers will put a good fight against this OKC team. It might not be a long series but the games will be closer.

After back to back years of making it to the conference finals, even though this year their road was easy due to injuries based on the fact they did it last year against healthy competition and they were playing well into the playoffs, I think the Wolves are legit.

I think OKC is just the superior team and more times than not, your heart is snatched when you're down 3 - 1 or 3 - 0. This beatdown is fairly typical.

I guess we will see next year how Minny and Ant bounce back though.

Absolutely unacceptable for Ant to go out with a whimper

fouling aside, OKC's defense is just ridiculously good. Their players don't give up.
