Daniel Gafford and Russell Westbrook is like a match made in basketball heaven. Westbrook gets somebody to feed for easy baskets, and Gafford gets a point guard who will feed him easy baskets. Not only that, but Westbrook will hog the ball so that Gafford doesn’t ever feel pressured to shoot a shot that he can’t make. Imagine what would happen if Gafford had to play with a point guard who tried to dump it into the post for him to do post moves. It wouldn’t be as pretty as constantly skying high for rim-wrecking alley-oopsies, that’s for sure.
Mo Wagner and Anzejszsez Pasckzejskzenjiniks were not the answer once Thomas Bryant went down. They were so not the answer that they’re gone now, never to be seen wearing a ‘Zards uniform again. Davis Bertans is also not the answer, because he solves the “big man shooting threes” problem, not the “big man rolling to the bucket for bigtime wham-blams” problem. Daniel Gafford is the answer. It’s so obvious now. Anybody who doesn’t see that is either legally blind, or they’re a Gafford hater because they can see that Gafford is on his way to a being a well-paid fixture in the league and is also very handsome and probably has six or seven simultaneous girlfriends at any one time.
Attention, rest of league: Daniel Gafford has arrived, and he is Larry Sanders 2.0 minus the “hates playing basketball” part.
