Check (AD)

a solid all star level PF


Oversold, but still check (Ryno)

a guy that was probably the best defensive player in the league


Oversold, but still check (Asik)

then one of the best 3pt shooters/closers in the league


Massively oversold, he was a nice spacer, but we have multiple players on this team that grade out better.

Third we are not tough enough


People like to act like we were going in punching people and flagrant fouling with West/Tyson. Just wait til someone cheap shots AD. I'm pretty sure that the "toughness" you are looking for will show up. I don't know if you could name one team in the NBA that wins games by beating the crap out of people other than "maybe" Memphis.

I don't mean guys that will fight. But you need dirty guys that throw the other team off their game and that cheat or really stretch the rules. OKC's teams the past couple of years were full of those guys. Perkins, Adams, Sefalosha, Fisher, Collison and even Ibaka. Those guys all scrap and are super physical (and yes dirty). Maybe Asik has a bit of a that in him and I like what I see from Rivers (that's why he is getting better). We need a couple of more to come through like that. A great candidate would be Miller. If he could embrace a tough guy role, he could write his own ticket here.
