Any reasons why you think they should?
As OKC gets Rodriguez they should throw in Westbrook maybe?

we're never trading Durant.

Your **** us right? The NBA's 6th leading scorer, at only age 20. For two backups?

Would you do Earl Watson and Chris Wilcox for Brandon Roy?

How about Kevin Durant and Nick Collison for Brandon Roy, Lamarcus Aldridge and a #1. Seems fair to me...

How about Mohammed Sene for Petteri Koponen?

Wholly Crap.....I was thinking of a Durant to GSW that sends Jackson,Wright,unprotected 09 #1,Marcus Williams maybe Jamal Crawford for Durant,and probably Earl Watson,Donyell Marshall (was he waived?) or ?...and a round 2. The Thunder get 3 starter types and a lotto pick. Probably not enough but it gives the Thunder a helluva jump start (and a backcourt)...add the 2 high lotto picks......

GSW loses a whole lot of depth but has a nice young core.

Hey...better than that awful Portland deal.

Isn't that like trading imaginary friends? Nobody has ever seen these guys. Pretty cool trade.
Better than Fran Vasquez for the Tooth Fairy. :-?

Rem, I think that at some point in the future, it's possible that OKC will have to choose between Green and Durant and cash one of them in for several pieces like you're talking about. All depends how the chips fall... how people develop, who we can draft, what trade options are out there, etc. I don't think that time is now though.

Bulls fan here... instead of clogging up your board with a new topic i'll just post it here. no i'm not going to post another durant trade... wow that first one was bad. what is you view on Westbrook? but is he more of a sg or a pg? would you trade for hinrich? i'm a big fan and think he could be a good player playing next to the right sg. the key is he could guard either spot taking the pressure of Westbrook. i could also see ben gordon signing here as a fa in the off season.

This board will not get clogged up... not enough fans in Oklahoma

Westbrook for Hinrich..... NO

we do not trade talented players
for High price role players

What we can do is trade expiring contracts to get him off your books
but otherwise not interested

no i ment hinrich to play with westrook... maybe hinrich for collison as a base

BadWolf · Post #13 » by **BadWolf** » Fri Jan 9, 2009 1:37 pm

he could be a nice fit, but pricetag is a bit high.
Collison for Hinrich? That's 3 year for a 4 year deal, right?
I kinda like Collison, he's also one of better frontcourt players on the team, Wilcox and petro are not here long term, Swift is a big question mark, so it's Collison and Krstic. Don't know, maybe?

not only is Petro not here long term... he's not even hear now! haha

We'd talked about getting Kirk on this board before. I agree that he'd be a good fit next to Westbrook. I'm not a huge Ben Gordon fan, but I think that he would also compliment Westbrook pretty well. I would say that Westbrook's ideal backcourt-mate has to have some range on the jump-shot and pretty solid ball-handling abilities.
