Isn’t it amazing how easy basketball can become when you have a shooting guard who can play both ends of the flow. A player who can defend. A player who can run in transition. A player who can make some threes and a player who can be trusted to make clutch free throws. What an amazing concept. OKC had Thabo at one time who when in his prime was decent. Of course Harden played this role a bit as Westbrook’s co-pilot before he left. There was Derek Fisher. Then there was the one year rental of Kevin Martin. There was the Jeremy Lamb experiment. Caron Butler. Dion Waiters. All of the tough moments with Andre’s shooting issues, but now it’s Corey Brewer’s turn to see what he can do for the Thunder to fill this void which basically has been a thorn in the Thunder side for as long as they’ve been in Oklahoma City.
So excuse my love on here this morning as my mind drifts to Shawn Marion in his prime and what we hope Corey Brewer can continue to do for the Thunder.
