Never mind, looked at the wrong player, Lamb is -.5 offensively. So Waiters is better offensively and worse defensively... This just doesn't make sense :lol:

Its like my whole life is upside down.

"The second factor is the escalating value of first-round picks in trades; the Thunder are taking advantage of that market on both sides. While some teams value future first-round picks so highly that they're willing to give up significant assets (or tank half the decade) to get them, the Thunder have established a pattern that other teams would do well to emulate. They've mastered the art of trading their own future picks, which most often would fall in the 20s, as part of trades that bring back established players who were top-five picks -- and who have an NBA track record, established behavior patterns and future salary commitments they can plan for."

Can't remember if this was posted somewhere on here or somewhere else...but none the less.

Waiters has been hitting that step back midrange pretty consistently lately.... Just needs to take less threes.

I just can't behind the Waiters acquisition. He's a low IQ player who doesn't seem to get it. I actually think the team would improve without him (the Rudy Gay effect). Tell me why I'm wrong.

You're not.

I want to change the thread title to "Dion Waiters: GTFO".

No doubt. It's a crime that Augustin has to share ball handling duties with him in the 2nd unit.
