				The teams rebuilding and a 1-10 record so far seems we are in pole position to take another top 4 pick.My question is who would you like OKC to pick in the 2009 draft.

				I think that, although I'm not a fan of him or OU, the team really has to try and get Griffin.  He doesn't even fit with the team very well, but the Thunder are a new team and need a guy to draw in as many fans as possible.  Who better to do it than a local guy from a school with some pretty dedicated fans, and possibly their school's best ever player.
Personnally, as far as winning, I don't think Griffin would be the best pick, and I hope they don't take him, but I can't see management not going out of their way to get him.

				But then you have 3 of your best prospect as really a 3-4 tweeners. 
Durant at SG, Green at sf and Blake at PF...
Well, you can always move green for a real shooting guard. It's just that there aren't any young and good available, if at all...

				Yeah, I agree... that's why I just don't think it makes sense for the team... it makes a lot of sense for the OWNERS though... and afterall, they own the team

				good point, london. Westbrook slides to sg, durant to sf, & green to pf. We then get D'Antonio and run, run, run RUN!

				I wouldn't take Rubio, this team needs a scorer at SG, someone to move Durant bck to 3.
A solid big would be nice, Thabeet sounds good, BJ probably eve  better.

				If we could trade for Monta Ellis
1 Westbrook,  Weaver
#2 Ellis, Westbrook
#3 Durant, Green
#4 Petro , DJ White
#5 Thabeet 2009 draft , Swift 
Collison could be trade bait with Wilcox

				thabeet looks favourite at moment but havent we got thabeet already -SENE. im not sure the front office would take another gamble so high in the draft with a prospect center.thabeet would be the forth in what the last 6 years.Im a firm believer in best player avaliable and if rubio declares and if i had opportunity to draft him  its a nobrainer for me.

				OKC boy Blake Griffins started the season on fire hes nearly averaging 20-20 a game. can he keep this up? With performances like this could he be wearing a thunder uniform next year. Well at 1-13 were looking pretty good anyway.

				If they take another raw C like Thebeet then managment is (Please Use More Appropriate Word).  Mullins, Griffin, Rubio, Harden are all good choices right now.  Jennings too.
