Looks like Presti has found another gem in the draft.

[Suckafree]

Been tryna tell people he will turn out great. Maybe not all star great but a good starting center who can anchor the defense, run the floor and finish at the rim. He can pass surprisingly well too.

He needs to model his game on Tyson Chandler and Joakim Noah. That will keep him in the league for ten years.

[BlazerRed]

Man if this guy pans out for OKC.. looking good so far, though obviously just preseason. Looking forward to seeing how he develops.

[russwest0]

Where those weak ass niqqas at like Bill Simmons criticizing that Harden trade.

We swapped a 6th man for a potential 6th man in Lamb, a starting center in Adams, and we still have the Mavs pick that is protected until 2016.

And since the Mavs will sux until then basically OKC gonna get a high lottery pick in 2016 :lol

Sam Presti is GOAT

[DuMa]

the one who saved us from Perk :bowdown:

Still gotta admit that they could've done much better.

[Inferno]

Hope he gets starter minutes..

Might sneak him into my fantasy team :lol

We tried trading Harden to Wizards for Beal, they declined.

We tried trading him to Warriors for Klay Thompson I believe. They declined.

People forget that Harden wasn't some big star in OKC. He was a 6th man coming in and dominating 2nd units, often in garbage time. Plus him shitting the bed in the Finals didn't help his trade value either.

Had we kept him till the ASB shit would have hit the fan and his value would have lowered even more plus our chemistry would have went to shit for trading him midseason for shitty compensation

[russwest0]

Nice spin

Sorry, Harden was nothing more than a 6th man for us. He was stealing possesions from KD/Russ/Ibaka as it was and all of those guys have gotten better since then.

Not Presti's fault he drafted too much talent all at once.

[senelcoolidge]

Perkins will mentor Adams.

I do alright in fantasy basketball and I've taken a risk on him in a few of my leagues..:rockon:

I just hope the coach doesn't fck this one. Adams NEEDS to be getting the lion share of minutes, he is much better than Perk.

[poido123]

Perkins will mentor Adams.

What could Perkins possibly mentor Adams with? He is literally better at nothing on the basketball court.

Except maybe pulling angry faces :lol

[senelcoolidge]

Brooks will play Perkins ahead of Adams..because Adams is a rookie. Perkins is the veteran. He should play ahead of a rookie. I bet that's Brooks thinking. :lol Perkins can mentor Adams in the ways of the NBA.

Yeah I agree.

I don't agree with it, but that's what will likely happen.

[All Net]

He just loves perk.

[iamgine]

Is he Nick Collison level?

[poido123]

Is he Nick Collison level?

Better defender and more mobile than Collison. Can finish plays better as well, has really good hands for his size.

Are you saying he's better right now or what? Cause IMO Nick Collison is pretty damn good.

[Bucket_Nakedz]

is he tongan? that tattoo he has says funaki which is a tongan name.

Hard to define "better" in this situation, but perhaps Collison is more refined and Adams is still a bit raw.

No doubt Adams has more talent, and it's arguable to suggest either player is "better" than one another at this point...

[TheReturn]

I know it's a very small sample size, but to me it seems like Collison is a much better passer and has a higher IQ. That's not a knock on Adams though. It's just that I agree, Nick Collison can play.

Nope but it was his fault for giving away a top ten player for pennies on the dollar

[Haymaker]

Considering his logic in signing ancient Derek Fisher, you might be right.

Hes not better than Collison. Not yet.

You realize Martin has already left; and as of now neither Lamb or Adams have proven a thing right? It would take both of these guys becoming borderline all-stars to make the trade look even decent.

Neither Lamb or Adams have proved a thing just like neither Durant, Westbrook, Harden, Ibaka, Reggie had proved a thing.
