    I didn’t believe OKC would want to deal with flipping Paul. In fact I don’t know if that has ever happen in the Nba.

    They have as of now 9 future draft picks after getting rid of pg13 and wb. And likely to add more after the next cp3 move. That’s damn good for a rebuilding team

    OKC is now my pet team. I want to see how many first they can get. Incredible unique situation. There several possible futures where they come back as a behemoth.

    I lost track of the number pelicans picks they have after the AD move. I’m assuming okc has more

    By 2020, Boston, Brooklyn, New Orleans, and Memphis will be the only teams drafting.

    Same. Its weird I was cheering for OKC to win the Finals. Now we have Westbrook and Harden. I thought Durant and Harden were closer but, I guess I was wrong.

    I wonder if you feel the same way now?

    For what it's worth- I thought the Westbrook to Houston rumors had to be fake too- "no way the Rockets are that desperate. Right? ....right?"

    I think @rocketchamp deserves some credit here. People thought it was a ridiculous post. Who has the last laugh now?

    He has the ultimate laugh if WB leads the team to a Finals appearance or ship......something CP3 could not do.
