    OKC: Shumpert (HOU) (S&T) + HOU 2020 1st + HOU 2021 (PHI) 2nd
    Thunder shed $$$ bigly

    DAL: Dragic (MIA) into TPE + HOU 2021 2nd + HOU 2020 2nd (MEM)
    Dragic is connected with fellow countryman Doncic. Mavs pick up 2nds to send to MEM - including MEM 2020 2nd - to acquire Iguodala

    MIA: Westbrook (OKC) + Davis (HOU) + Frazier (HOU) + Chiozza (HOU)
    Westbrook & Jimmy.... plus some cheap role players.

    HOU: Olynyk (MIA) + Winslow (MIA)
    Ship
    Starters: CP3 - Harden - Winslow - Tucker - Cpaela
    Rotation 1: Rivers - Harden - Winslow - Tucker - Capela
    Rotation 2: CP3 - Gordon - House Jr. - Olynyk - Hartenstein / Nene / Pau Gasol / Noah

    It wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if Morey gave Presti permission to throw our name out there as potential suitors just to drive the price up on Miami. It also wouldn't surprise me if Morey tries to bring in the Clippers (or Lakers) as a 3rd team, with that team getting CP3.

    Dragic's 19M contract does not fit into Dallas' 12M TPE.
    Rockets Davis can't be aggregated until mid August, FYI.

    Morey to fans: Fresh air, rolling down the window
    Morey to Riley: Too many Urkels on your team, that's why your wins low
    Morey to Presit: Don't make me pull the toys out

    LOL why doesnt he give the da,mn full list.. If Houston is trying then more then likely were on the list.

    Usually this list thing never works (Howard- wanted brooklyn) Ship to LA , Kawhi supposedly wanted LA (Shipped to Toronto)
    Melo wanted Houston (Shipped to OKC) and on an on..

    i like where you're going with this but the LA teams can't trade for CP3 right now. first i think its unlikely that the clippers and CP get back together. if they did the clippers can only offer lou/trez/robinson/shamet for a total of $19.6M. they couldn't take on paul's $38.5M.

    next the lakers and paul, i'm sure, have mutual interest but they just used all their cap space on FAs. none of them can be traded until dec 15. the only players they could trade right now are lebron, AD, and kuz.

    good points. you don't always get traded to your top choice. sometimes you get traded to a team not on your list. we don't know where the rockets stand with westbrook but if we make the best offer it may not matter to the thunder what rus' preferred destination is.

    Is that it! That's all Miami has to give up to get Westbrook? Only that?

    Gee Wiz!
