DMO is the most reasonable and legit bets left on bigs. RFA though, at least 3 yrs offer to bet on his back. 2+1 seems sound but rely on Rockets decision--good option for team make them more likely to match, but good option for player make it more riskier.

the whole point was to free up time for schroeder. they did that. they also added dwight and got bazemore back

Schoder/Bazemore/Korver/Milsap/Dwight is a nice lineup for a team that reached its ceiling and needed to become more dynamic. thats alot of shooting around dwight and a team with what should be outstanding defense

we are probably done with bigs... other then maybe a low level guy from summer league...

C: Brook/Scola/Hamilton
PF: Booker/McCulough/Mockevicius

PG: Lin, Grevis, Yogi, whitehead
SG: Bogs, kilpatrick
SF: RHJ, LeVert

thats 12 guys on gauranteed deal, 2 guys on partials. not much more room and odds are we add a wing not a big

GMs expect westbrook to be dealt before the season.

Boston or LA seem most likely. he'd have to agree to an extension or to resign id assume.

another source to go along with Prok's....

damn, Durant's decision so screwed us lol....

What does Boston have? Had they drafted Dunn, then major yes! but they didn't. What does Boston have to send OKC?

Post #671 » by **CalamityX12** » Wed Jul 13, 2016 6:14 pm

Minnesota may be a team that actually has the talent/assets to give OKC but it'll never happen cause Westbrook won't sign there at all... IMO.

NY... nada....

BKN...next.

LAC... maybe Griffen but CP3 n RW? unlikely....

LAL... Ingram would be my asking price but I'm sure Lakers would say Russell n Randle

OK i realized that Boston owning/swap of our pick may be great influence however a deal like shouldn't be made by OKC til trading deadline to see where the NETs stand in the lotto.

take a good look at the roster we have and then come back to the sentence in bold

You don't need to have psychic ability to predict where that pick will be come March.

If I'm presti i pillage Ainge for Nets 2017 AND 2018 pick, isiah thomas, jae crowder and whatever trash that is needed to make the salaries work. in fact, i think OKC would still be respectable with that deal because Thomas is a B Tier stud and OKC still has some good pieces in house.

they are smart to move him as soon as possible, the longer they wait the more teams can just try and get him for free in the offseason.

I think the lakers are a lock. they have the young assets (ingram/russell/this years pick/randle) and he would resign there. lakers would have the cap space, the star, and the city to get him a partner in the offseason.

celtics have the assets but id dout he would sign there.

the knicks could give up KPand picks but i dont think that gets it done

The odds are stacked against us yes but its still an unknown...

I'd be pissed if player returns are IT, JC and anyone else... Brown maybe ok but still not enough IMO for OKC.

OKC has no one after Westbrook... Adams is great playing behind Durant n Westbrook. I'm sure Adams is still going to do his thing but offensively OKC has squat... They did Oladipo but the pendulum isn't swinging in their high favor.

Roy Tarpley · Post #677 » by **Roy Tarpley** » Wed Jul 13, 2016 6:46 pm

Dragic, Winslow, Richardson, picks.

MrDollarBills · Post #678 » by **MrDollarBills** » Wed Jul 13, 2016 6:47 pm

plus OKC would be insane to wait until March because their leverage is gone once the season starts.

yeah i think LA gets it done. Can't see Westbrook resigning or being a good fit in a racist town like Boston

LAL do seem to be the right partner for such a trade... assets seem more favorable for OKC to get in return IMO.

The knicks would be foolish to give up KP... he's their future and needs to keep him post Melo. Westbrook is a great addition to a winning team though... tough call.
