7.) I expect that the Thunder will win at least half of their games this season although that will likely leave them outside of the playoffs. I would be surprised if they do not make the playoffs in 2010-11. To bad they arent in the East, they would be like the third seeded team ;D

I had the pleasure of watching some 70 Thunder games last year and would make the following general comments. 5.) The body language between Jeff and KD is much improved. I had heard from a connected source that they did not like each other much, but they seem to have learned to work together pretty well and the number of smiles between them shot up exponentially as the season progressed. Hoyachris--excellent write up. Nothing personal, and I see the point you're making, but this still amuses me. Is there any sports board--basketball, football, pro, amateur, whatever--that discusses smiles (and places so much value on them) as much as this board does?

Great analysis, HoyaChris. We agree on a lot of points.
I love graeagle's suggestion that Miami would be a good fit. Why hadn't I thought of that? That would be a great spot for Mr. Green if the Oklahoma situation does not work out.

Since I have first hand knowledge on Jeff/Durants relationship, I can say that any reports of Jeff/Kevin ever not liking each other is absolutely bogus. In fact they were attached at the hip when they got to Seattle. Jeff and Kev would always be at each others condo, and Kev's mom would cook for them. They have supported each other from day one, and hang-out/work-out together as much as possible in the off season. So some of you people can shove that smiley crap.

^^ Yeah that makes more sense considering Durant has followed Jeff to summer workouts up at Gtown.
