Thabeet ... shoot blocking .. 7-3 ... needs developing
Rubio ... passing... poor shooting
Harden ... great fundamentals ... lack quickness
Curry .. great outside shooter.... lacks size

everyone and anyone else ?

I would love to have Thabett but if he is gone i would try to trade with Sac and hope they would give up Greene to move up one i doubt we could get either of there starting young bigs,but grab Harden and Donte could be a great back-up for Durant and Green

Trade #3 for #4 and... Donte Greene?? You must be kidding, Greene's defense can't be any worse!

I'll consider the trade if the Kings are willing to give us Jason Thomason.

the only way they would even consider trading Thomson is if we package green with our #3 im trying to gain young talented players without destroing our core 3 and still get the guy we need in the draft 1 Griffin 2 Thabett 3 Harden

If Rubio falls to us we should draft him for sure. package him to the kings and get extra assets.

I really think thabeet is going to the obligatory 7 foot plus center that is drafted in the top 5 and never pans out.

^I agree that Thabeet wont pan out. I really hope we dont end up with him because I really dont know how much better he will get. If Rubio falls to us we have to take him. I think making him the distributer at the 1 and Westbrook the slasher/scorer/defender at the 2 solidifies the backcourt. Yeah it is a smaller backcourt but I think both would flourish in their roles.

Curry reminds me alot of JJ Redick. I DO NOT want to see him in a Thunder uniform. Yes he gives the Thunder a shooter which is a definite need, but I just dont think he fits with Westbrook. At best in my opinion he turns out to be a Jannero Pargo-type player which isnt what you use a top 3 pick on.
