We don't need Stan Johnson, but a decent cheap reclamation project for the Raps. Costs them very little. Never likely to improve his awful shooting, but if he does he has the rest of the tools to be a good player in this league. Still just a young 23.

Make it stop.


And Adams. What are we trying to do become the Thunder of the East and lose any Cap flexibility for the next few years.

Our big signing would be Dragan Bender.

Gasol and Ibaka have to be available for the right price, no? Ujiri is likely considering full rebuild.

Kemba/Jaylen/Tatum/Ibaka/Gasol?

You guys think there are any other big moves for us before the start of the season? Seems like adding another big could be nice. Have dmc and Howard been talked about on here recently? We couldn’t afford either even if there was mutual interest right?

I agree what a lot of what I’ve read recently about the upcoming Hayward vs Brown problem. But we probably need to see them play half a season to make a choice- and to build Hayward’s trade value if he is the one to go.

This time last year, we had already signed Wanamaker and Williams III to their contracts. Can our rookies even play in Summer League without being officially signed yet?

They can. As long as the team holds the rights to them.

at least the general board is back to being readable. Raptors/Lakers fans took a step back from the high horse they were sitting on.

Buy out Westbrook, and I still wouldn't take him for the minimum.

Westbrook for Blake makes sense. Blake is from OKC, Pistons likes overpaid players.

Mook sign and trade incoming?

Possibly to the Lakers w/ Anthony Davis to Boston. Just a wild guess.


Not LeBron too?

This take is not necessarily Celtics driven, but OKC trying to cut money didn't make a lot of sense before yesterday. All that Steven Adams smoke we all heard before free agency has to be fire now. I would think Adams has a lot of value around the league and is not on a $30M+ a year contract.

Lastly, just like everyone was saying about CP3 being unmovable because of his contract...doesn't it feel the same for Westbrook?

Indy lost six of their rotation players?
Who did they add besides Brogdon, McConnell, and Warren?
