OKC- Kuminga, 19th overall pick 2023

GSW- Kenrich Williams, 12th overall pick 2023, Utah 2024 protected first round pick, 50th pick in 2023 draft

OKC bets on Kuminga's potential while being able to give him an opportunity on a young roster. Golden state gets a quality vet on a reasonable contract and a couple picks that can help them win now while their core is intact.

Thunder- 6th overall via Pacers, 7th overall via Trail Blazers, Eric Bledsoe, Keon Johnson, Goga Bitadze

Pacers- Josh Giddey, Tre Mann, 30th overall via Thunder, 34th overall via Thunder, Darius Bazley, Josh Hart

Trail Blazers- Malcolm Brogdon, Miles Turner, Kenrich Williams, Mike Muscala

Oklahoma City adds a lot of talent at the top of the draft and extend their rebuild another year for a strong 2023 draft class. They try and find a better fit next to SGA while clearing roster spaces for younger players. Pacers add elite young talent and some rotation pieces. Trail Blazers add to their team and try to win now with Lillard.

OKC no longer owns #30 after today's trade.


2.) 13 Jun 2022 18:16:50
I don’t think the 3 guards 2 centers lineup would be great for Portland.


3.) 13 Jun 2022 18:26:23
I don’t see the point in trading Giddy for another pick, he looks like a star, no reason to take another gamble.


4.) 14 Jun 2022 13:21:48
While Giddey has shown a TON of upside his shooting still has the potential to hold him back from being able utilizing his play making . If banchero is available at #3 and they like 1 or two of the guys at 6+7 this trade makes a ton of sense for them. Giddey sga and banchero is going to force one of them to play off it more than they should to develop optimally.

Thunder- 2022 4th overall via Kings, 2023 first via Hawks, 2023 first from Hornets via Hawks, De'Andre Hunter, Harrison Barnes

Hawks- SGA, Vasilije Micic

Kings- John Collins, Lu Dort, 12th overall via OKC

OKC ends up with the number 2 and 4 picks in this years draft adding talent that replaces the traded players while continuing the tank for one more year for a strong 2023 draft class. Hawks end up with a dynamic back court with two young stars. Kings add depth and talent to get back to the playoffs next year after a long drought.

Kings would be all over this. Especially if we can walk away with either Davis or Sochan @ #12. However, I seriously doubt that OKC is open to trading SGA.

Fox/ Mitchell
Dort/ Davis/ DiVincenzo (? )
Holiday/ Sochan/ Jalen Williams (#37)
Collins/ Lyles/ Metu
Sabonis/ Holmes/ Len

Plus, that still let's us see what we can get for Holmes to a team like Dallas, Brooklyn or Lakers.


2.) 31 May 2022 22:06:44
Not happening, SGA is home. Plus you need to come a lot stronger than that to get a emerging star.

You can always tell a homer trade when the team ( OKC) gets a long version in the comments of why they get hosed from the homer. Explaining how it will make them better in the long run.

Thunder- Giddey, Muscala, Jerome, Robinson-Earl, 2022 1st via suns, 2022 unprotected 1st via clippers, 2024 unprotected 1st via clippers,

Warriors- Wiseman, Kuminga

Warriors add pieces that can help them win now without mortgaging their future. Okc uses a couple picks and players to get two pieces that can be big for their future. Giddey is an awkward fit next Shai, as shai requires shooters around him. They also fill in their small forward and center position. After that okc only needs a power forward and time for their rebuild to come to an end.

“Requires shooters around him* then trades for 2 non shooters.


2.) 15 Dec 2021 17:01:05
Give me giddey over wiseman man straight up, wiseman hasn’t showed us anything. The thunder are then supposed to throw in draft picks as well? Terrible.

Knicks- quickley, 2021 1st Dallas, 2022 1st, 2023 1st, 2024 1st
Thunder- SGA, Maledon, Williams, all three 2021 2nd round picks

The knicks add a star, a good bench player and a good young player along with some picks to trade for another decent player. OKC adds more picks and a solid young player. This helps okc tank for another high pick next year and trading the picks and players creates roster spots for their first round picks.

I think this is a little overpay for the Knicks, but SGA in the Garden would be awesome.

Not sure how many picks OKC can stock :-)


2.) 28 Jun 2021 14:09:22
That's a Lillard package.

Barrett Quickley For SGA Maledon.


3.) 28 Jun 2021 15:37:18
Toronto claims Canadian territorial rights to SGA, Dort, Barrett and Murray.

Williams has more value than Siakam himself due to his age, team control, and potential. There is no way any of their young stars are included for an expiring contract.

They aren’t giving up a pick for 6 years, and get assets that could help them rebuild faster. Cleveland can also spend the money from love on more useful players. OKC also didn’t want to trade Kenrich Williams at the trade deadline this year because he has value, so it’s not like Cleveland isn’t getting anything in return for a washed up 30 million dollar man.

Bledsoe is making 7 million more per year than Hill and is averaging less points per game. Doesn’t make sense for OKC to take on that contract when they can get a first for Hill anyway.

OKC can get a first for Hill without taking on a terrible contract.
