im just curious i was on facebook and there was some NBA page that said theres a possibility chris paul could land in OKC, which would shift westbrook to the 2 guard, and amnesty perkins.

Even if they amnesty Perkins, they will not be enough below the cap (less than the MLE amount).

The only way I see Paul being in OKC is through a S&T and that only happens if Westbrook is going to LAC.

They traded Harden because of the cap, they aren't gonna max out another player after breaking their Finals core.

Which would still put OKC over the hump in my opinion.

It still wouldn't solve OKC's main problem of not having an inside presence in the paint. Also, having three guys that need the ball in their hands would be horrible.
