He can be traded, and this is a pretty solid package for him. And you have to also realize that the Thunder flat out suck, and honestly, you can never have too many 1st rounders when you're that bad.

Just about every player in the NBA not named LaBron, Kobe, KG or CP3 is expendable. So yes, theoretically Jeff Green could be traded as there's loads of players with higher comparable value. But he's also a great young player who's getting better every game and he's part of Presti's core.

You're wrong thinking that this is a package that would get TFKAS to trade Jeff Green. Take my word on that or not. It's just an opinion. But I'm pretty sure I know the team better than you.

You're right again about the fact TFKAS sucks, for now, but that's no reason to make a bad trade. Also reminds me of the famous WC Fields reply to a woman who accused him of being drunk... ever hear it?

And finally, TFKAS, at 2-17, is exactly what can happen when you have too many 1sts. Painful lessons for rookies & second year players combine with alienated veterans to deliver a steady stream of losses. So ya, those four 1sts the next two years TFKAS already has should be plenty.

Whatever you say, but this is still a solid trade.
