Houston get: #12 pick, Houston 2024 1st

Why for Houston: they get back in total control of their 2024 first pick, and they can use #12 to trade up or to select another interesting prospect

Why for Okc: Jabari Smith had a disappointing rookie season but he can perfectly fit Okc timeline and Okc needs

Okc lineup: Giddey, SGA, J-Dub, Jabari, Chet

Off topic but Longhorns fan while OKC fan is bold !

I have no clue with Presti 2nd round plans . I can see the fit though in terms of what we want to do.

He looked great at the combine.

At present, second round picks feel like a distraction. There’s almost no way any of our current second round picks make the roster even this year.

we could have 3 spots open if we don't keep JRE and Waters. I would rather try to develop a player drafted at #37 instead of keeping waters.

I see Eason as someone they keep cause he plays defence . Jabari probably might get the most or Sengun ?

Green fit is a bit iffy if the ball is in Harden’s hand more. It won’t be Harden with 4 rookies anyway it’s more likely Harden with 2 vet and 2 rookies with 1 more coming off bench .

Yea green doesn’t fit well but his talent level is still too high for Houston to sell for pennies on the dollar. If Houston went after Siakam I think Green could thrive in a place like Toronto.

Yeap.

Im thinking places with a star that want sell out . That team would provide a Robin to harden Batman.

Does anyone think #4 can bring back a Robin ? If yes that might be the better route . I think Green still is the better prospect over the non scoot/miller prospect.

Imagine the Clippers blow it up and get #3 and #4? I don't see what else they can do. Especially if Ty Lue leaves, it would just feel like continuity has been lost when it was never really there to begin with.

I agree totally about moving waters.

the narrative on grant williams this postseason could make him an interesting value proposition. i was thinking for sure he would command 4/80+, but now maybe he could come cheaper. and depending on what boston does elsewhere (jaylen brown), they might not have the wherewithal to match an offer sheet.

williams would fit the 'nasty' mold sam presti was talking about. i think he's also better than he's given credit for.

A tad above MLE ? 15m / year ?

Jaden Mcdaniels for Lu Dort, Jeremija Robinson, couple of protected first rounders seems like a win win solution

couple of FRPs is probably a little bit too rich but I like the idea. I would trade Miami 2025 FRP, JRE and Dort for Mcdaniels

I'd love Jaden McDaniels on the team, but I do agree couple of port. FRPs and Dort is what we need to pry him away.

Kelly Olynyk is an expiring this year, any interest in trying to get him for a one-year rental ?

Keita Bates Diop is a FA and might be a cost-effective player too

PJ Washington is an RFA, I think he'd be a great target to send an offer sheet



Just thinking of some PFs to add to the thought process here

I would love to get PJ Washington but I think Charlotte is gonna match any offer (well except something close to the max but doesn't make sense to do it)

Is PJ Washington a 100/4 or 85/4 type player ? I think that's the type of offer that will get him to OKC but I'm not entirely sure that's reasonable with the money OKC will be tied up with in the future. What do you think Dadouv ?

I believe CHA will most definitely match any offer within 20M a year.

I think he will get between 80 and 88 millions (maybe a bit more since the cap space is supposed to increase a lot every year but the new taxes restriction could impact players too so I'm not sure).

I wouldn't feel good about giving him more than 22 millions/year tbh. I don't mind overpaying a guy for the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 season but after that we will have Giddey's second contract (and hopefully Chet's and JDub a year after that)

I wouldn't touch him for that kind of money. We've been good about finding guys like Kenrich and Wiggins. I trust Presti to find someone with more size. I think giving that much money to Washington is really forcing the issue. I don't see where the value comes from. At best, he is inoffensive and fills a hole, but that's not reason enough to throw that kind of money at it him. I'd save that money to retain our own and keep working at the margins to find players whose utility exceeds their contracts. I'm not saying I am averse to bringing in someone on a larger contract, but I need a compelling reason to. Until such an option appears, I'd keep my powder dry.

Would OKC do #12 straight up for Corey Kispert? Just wondering.

Nope . No interest in that trade.

We don't have the 20th pick.

I wouldn't trade Jalen Williams for #5 straight up so easy pass. If he trades him for anything less than Scoot or Miller I give up on our team.
