@AndrewKSchlecht Is Boston any indication of what can happen to the Thunder once Shai's supermax kicks in? I'm not even talking about Brown alone, but deconstruction of championship team. I know Presti said we're not afraid of 2nd apron, but still, makes me wonder if we can keep big 3 together.
@shaisprint Hayward trade allowed us to sign IHart. Were there different paths for clearing as much salary? Sure.
Isaiah Joe trade leaves us with two second round picks and as many reliable 3-point shooters in the entire roster.
@geola388 What are you talking about? This is a good trade, except for Knecht, who could be rerouted to a third team via second rounders if Lakers want to get rid of him.
@all_things_OKC Trading up with 12, 17 and 2027 swap reverse for Keaton Wagler + trading Dort to the Lakers for their pick and drafting a shooter with it is my dream scenario.
@ThunderChats Defense is not our main concern. I'd say it's at the end of the list. Shooting should be number 1 priority, optimally with good size and shot creation.
@DownToDunk Why did Presti vote for the lottery rule changes? He was always against flattening the odds. It's also uncharecteristic that he'd go for a short-term gain instead of long-term view.
@405Fan I thought Dub would be the best option on Wemby and he clearly wasn't. Chet was good on Wemby (4-11). Playing lone big seems like a must and IHart needs to take all JWill's minutes. I didn’t understand playing him at all in G1. And to play him 2 mins less than Hart is blasphemy.
