Off-Season Challenge: Improve the Thunder

[Laimbeer]

DDR and Randle? Can't think of many players I would want less as OKC. I think we have some sabotage going on in here.

Imo it's Deni, which will get me skewered for saying.

He'd be great. But I think it's a year too late - Portland's price will and should be high, they're not getting any of OKC's stars for Deni, and I doubt that role players plus even a bundle of picks would be enough to tempt them. I imagine the same with regard to Atlanta and Jalen Johnson.

[Tripod]

KWilliams and Dieng +ALL 1st rd picks in 2026 and 27...ti whoever wins the draft for Flagg.

Adding Flagg and Topic to next years team without removing anyone, would be crazy and still be a long term move, obviously.

Flagg off the bench

Flagg off the bench

Nobody is trading flagg for that

By the looks of it, Tripod would if Toronto won the lottery.

I didn't know 7 1sts would be insulting

almost all the picks are top 5+ protected or from playoff teams/contenders. Only semi interesting pick is mia 2026 unprotected if they miss playoff this year. Knowing miami though it would be late lotto at best in all likelihood. Given lack of roster spots and minutes available there is a diminishing return to having so many non premium picks as well.

It's a pretty insulting offer for Flagg.

Deni or Jalen are the type that it would need to be.

Big wings and good deals.

Some say creation when SGA is off but I think Topic or Ajay Williams can be that player.

May need an IHart replacement in two years once the roster is expensive.
