Really just don't understand why posters here are pushing Bradley. It's not even like he's the most likely/cheapest option. Evans and Williams are better.

Tyreke Evans and Lou Williams?

Give me Bradley all day and take the best defense in the NBA to historic levels.

Bradley's not a good defender though.

Bradley isn't a good defender

He’s better than Lou and Tyreke IMO

bradley is afflicted with arron afflalo syndrome.

Ok I’ll keep the Bradley convo to the trade thread. Didn’t mean to derail a great win PG thread.

They just beat 2 of the top 6 teams in the NBA.

Keep it going.

Probably better than Williams. Not better than Evans. And offensively worse than both.

Reminded me of when PG was talking about being able to guard KD and we said "bet" and ran him off all the screens the next game so KD could light him up. Screening was good across the board (except for Grant, who is trashy trash on screens)

Tables starting to turn on a lot of early season narratives. I said give this team until around Christmas, which is when the season really begins and you'll see if they're committed to this. Everyone has bought in it seems, just one piece away.

i really want to see abrines more with better bigs. he cannot get open with grant in the game as the big setting the screen on the strong side of the court. wish we'd play a 'traditional' lineup off the bench if we're not going to play melo-bench.

Abrines clearly isn't as bad as tonight showed, but his defense has been horrendous. Always fouls.

Nice win, can’t believe how the team has turned it around offensively.

This team went from "interesting to watch" because of the talent to "fun to watch". The team has elevated the offense from awful to pretty good level with lots of upside to spare. Best part of the team playing better is at least it shuts up all the doom and gloom from talking heads.
"How concerned should we be about the Thunder ? "
"What does OKC do with Paul George ? "
"Is the OKC experiment a failure? "

:roll:
