Adding both Hartenstein and Caruso will make this OKC Team a lot more dangerous. Great pick ups

Huge for OKC. Chet needed help down low

OKC has to be favorites now, assuming Porzingis will be injured as usual

What an incredible pickup by them, exactly what they needed and a good dude that mesh well with their players.

they're in a good spot but i think they still need a secondary iso scorer to really give them the leg up.

Ton of money but a very good fit for OKC. I couldn't see myself paying him nearly 30 million a year, but he is gonna fit perfectly with them.

Dude deserves this payday, well deserved. He will be solely missed but we knew this was going to inevitably happen. Sucks.

That's J Dub and Wiggins

A bit of an overpay, was hoping for 22m per year ballpark. I was really happy with the value of the Wiggins and Joe deals so it balances out.

Very happy to have him on the roster though! Much needed size and strength, but still operates well as a passer and screener.

This is a steal if anything.

Title favorites easily to me. Yes, much better than Boston and Philly.

And with that the Knicks have instability in the middle. They'll need to get a good backup to Robinson who is one of the most injury prone bigs in the league. Still the 2nd/3rd best team in the EASt, but Ihart was really good. OKC Imo is the best in the West now.

In comparison to the deals he got prior to breaking out in NY, yes but in this free agency this is a great get. He's a winning player and does all the intangibles and then some. He is awesome.

I think he would have come back if you had merely offered marginally more than we could offer. You needed an offer he couldn't refuse.

i get that but they're still unknowns in terms of getting to the finals. they have a legit shot now, i would like to see them make one more move for a scorer.

Ladies and gentlemen, the favourite for the Western Conference is Oklahoma City.

They are the big favourite. It is their time now.
