Oklahoma City Thunder Rumours

04 Aug 2020 07:38:24
Magic/Pacers

Magic trade Evan Fournier (opt in) Aaron Gordon James Ennis III (opt in) Terrace Ross two first round picks and two second round picks

Pacers trade Victor Oladipo TJ Warren

Victor Oladipo would love to come back to Orlando where He first started it

But Old General Manager made huge mistake by trading him away then keep Evan Fournier Aaron Gordon I wouldn't trade Victor Oladipo for Injuries prone Serge Ibaka @ the time

I would trade Evan Fournier & Aaron Gordon to Thunder for Serge Ibaka 2020 first round pick (Top 20 protected) straight up

Second Trade

Magic/Bucks

Magic trade Nikola Vucevic

Bucks trade Brook Lopez DJ Wilson Donte DiVincenzo 18 pick.via Pacers

Magic draft Kira Lewis Jr.via Magic & Vernon Carey.via Pacers

I think Victor Oladipo going to re-sign with them long term Orlando Magic will welcome him back Orlando Magic Fan love him

04 Aug 2020 08:54:31
So after showing off for the previous restart games, Pacers trading Warren? What?

04 Aug 2020 12:49:15
Vucevic is not "2 young players znd s first rounder" better ghan Brook Lopez. Lopez a better fit with Giannis as well.

04 Aug 2020 20:40:59
With the defense Lopez has played the last couple of years, I don’t think Vucevic is any better than him. Lopez might be the most underrated player in the NBA.

04 Aug 2020 21:17:11
Now if you change Brook Lopez to Robin Lopez, then you might have something to talk about. But I doubt the salaries work in that case.

04 Aug 2020 05:17:01
Let me know what y'all think abt these Gobert trades

Too much or not enough

Thunder - Gobert
Jazz - Adams Dort and 4 or 5 picks from LAC

Grizzlies - Gobert
Jazz - Valanciunas Clarke Brooks and 1 or 2 future 1sts

Knicks - Gobert
Jazz - Robinson Knox Smith Portis 6 and Dal 1sts

Bulls - Gobert
Jazz - Lavine and Carter

04 Aug 2020 11:37:44
First one is too much. As much as I like gobert he has only one year on his contract.

04 Aug 2020 12:05:06
Too much.

03 Aug 2020 22:33:52
Pacers - CP3 Dort Roby and 1 or 2 Okc 1st
Lakers - Turner
Thunder - Brogdon Green and Kuzma

CP3
Oladipo
Dort
Warren
Sabonis

Bradley/Mannion
Waiters
Lebron
AD
Turner

Brogdon
SGA
Green
Kuzma
Adams

04 Aug 2020 11:44:16
Pacers can get 2 better first round picks for turner and brogdon easily. Chris Paul is very good player but with his age and that contract he doesn't have much trade value.

02 Aug 2020 19:15:33
Would this team be a contender?

1)Suns-Dallas

dallas:Ayton
Suns :doncic

2)Suns-Indiana
Suns: TJ Warren
Indiana:cash considerations

3) Suns-OKC
OKC:Bridges
Suns: SGA

4)Suns-Knicks
Knicks: 2rnd pick
suns: M Robinson

C:Robinson
PF:Warren
SF:Doncic
SG:Booker
PG:SGA

02 Aug 2020 19:44:36
Clearly suns are getting robbed on all trades.

02 Aug 2020 21:09:12
Booker is being robbed to plan for a great team ;-p.

01 Aug 2020 15:01:51
Rockets get Randle

Knicks get Paul

Okc gets Gordon, Portis, 2 2021 firsts (Clips and Mavs)

Rockets get a big man, Knicks get Paul who teams up with Leon Rose, and OKC adds a shooter and more picks.

OKC lineup

SGA, Schroeder
Gordon, Ferguson
Dort, Roberson
Gallo, Bazley
Adams, Portis

01 Aug 2020 15:50:13
Why would Houston do that? Randle doesn’t give them anything that they want.

01 Aug 2020 16:24:38
Paul not gdtting OKC 2 firsts bdcause of his contract. But you keep trying.

01 Aug 2020 17:02:28
Yeah, no picks. If anything, they should go to Houston.

01 Aug 2020 18:11:32
Pughes Knicks package Portis bullock Payton Gibson if all 4 released, This saves okc 82 mil. No picks necessary.

01 Aug 2020 23:16:32
Your going to have to trade Paul for horford and two picks.

02 Aug 2020 02:58:07
Agree, Paul isn't getting OKC two picks if they trade him. I have heard a little around here that Paul would be willing to go to the Knicks. Why not Paul for Randle and some throw-ins to make salaries work? Win-win for both teams. Knicks get an all-star hall-of-famer to lead young team and Thunder get a young player.

02 Aug 2020 18:29:07
Do y’all watch basketball Paul might not get two picks but he is doing better with okc than he ever did with Houston Paul will not go from okc for rubbish players that’s a guarantee and Horford and two picks would never work Paul plays ten times better than Horford and his contract is worse than Paul’s to be honest I’d rather keep cp3 in a okc Jersey than get nothing for him if anything he can work the front office after he retires either way is good for the thunder but he will not get moved for nothing not the way he overachieved the thunder and are a dark horse in the west so whatever y’all say.

02 Aug 2020 18:41:54
If okc wanted him out I’d be ok with Randle, Knox, and frank Ntilikina if okc went on full scale rebuild if not I’d keep Paul.

02 Aug 2020 19:04:04
the only wat paul is going anywhere is if the team wants to trade him for salary relief. Paul would go to the knicks but they would have to have a solid team around him like OkC for him to be as good as he is.

Paul's great as a floor leader and put him with other floor leaders he's useless.

Miami should trade for Paul.
Paul and Butler would work.

03 Aug 2020 12:01:30
Yes, Paul would be good in Miami. Can't see OKC trading Paul there as they own two of Miami's first round picks in the next few years. The last thing OKC wants is for Miami to get better.

03 Aug 2020 16:02:03
No way I give Miami Paul not owning there two picks if he gets traded it’s elsewhere

31 Jul 2020 13:47:17
How the Thunder can get KAT:
SGA, Dort, Noel, Adams, Denver 1st, and 5 more 1sts for KAT.

Minny has a good core to build around D'Lo. Start rebuilding.

OKC adds a contention piece.

D'Lo/SGA/Culver or Beasley/Noel/Adams

Paul/Schoder/Ferguson/Gallo(resign)/KAT

31 Jul 2020 15:10:16
Lol. Traded for DLo (Kat's friend) and then ship KAT out of town. Lol.

31 Jul 2020 18:24:21
I did it to annoy PostalThunder.

31 Jul 2020 19:54:15
That’s a lot.

01 Aug 2020 04:24:43
It didn't annoy me. I love KAT and was hoping they'd make a move in January. Moot point now with his friend in Minny. SGA is a star. They're not going to trade him. Haven't heard a word here regarding anyone wanting out. Very young and close team. Fun to watch.

02 Aug 2020 15:10:33
Not annoyed? Dang.

02 Aug 2020 18:31:33
Okc don’t need or want Karl Anthony town right now we are a good scoring wing short of being a true contender we need like a Devin Booker a Bradley Beal cause sga is not being moved if u can’t get one of em get u a guy like Terrance Ross that’s really okc likes is a good scoring wing I would love to have Norman Powell.

29 Jul 2020 12:35:08
All in move for thunder

Phoenix Suns & okc thunder

Thunder get Devin Booker

Phoenix Suns get Luguentz Dort, Dennis Schroder & isiah Roby and 5 first round draft picks.

29 Jul 2020 23:37:03
Lol those picks are late.

31 Jul 2020 02:27:23
How many times are we gunna here that how do u know for sure do u know nba anything can happen to any team and them picks turn out to be really really good but to be honest I’m just fine to with keeping em all and getting just a good wing player and the thunder are set while Phoenix can continue to lose and never make the playoffs.

31 Jul 2020 02:30:28
And u get a point guard back averaging 20 a game and Dort who for sure will be putting up 20.a night easy once he develops his game in the scrimmages tells u that it’s not like it’s a bad deal the thunder know what they got in those picks like I said I’d rather keep em and draft and show u what those picks can turn out to be.

01 Aug 2020 04:29:45
Totally agree CWalk. In five years, Houston and the Clippers could be the worst teams in the league as everyone ages. Those picks could be very high and we have not only the picks, but swap rights with both teams on the picks we don't have.

02 Aug 2020 18:37:03
I know they don’t know basketball and the quality of having those picks.

29 Jul 2020 11:04:54
Suns/Hawks

Hawks trade Kevin Hunter Cam Reddish Dewayne Dedman Skal Labissière 3 pick 2021 first round pick 2023 first round pick.via Thunder


Suns trade Devin Booker

Trae Young & Devin Booker & John Collins & Clint Capela & De'Andre Hunter They're making to playoffs

Suns draft Obi Toppin PF

29 Jul 2020 11:59:27
That's not a playoff team.

29 Jul 2020 12:12:18
Teams now trade top-flight talent only if the player demands a trade.

30 Jul 2020 23:58:55
That is a playoff team in the East. Not a chance in the West.

29 Jul 2020 03:58:40
MIN acquires: DEN 1st & Terrance Fergsuson

OKC acquires: Josh Okogie

27 Jul 2020 16:24:32
Spurs: CP3

OKC: Derozan+ Mills


This would benefit both teams with a low risk trade.
The spurs can stretch their run with Popovitch.
OKC gets caprelief without giving up a pick and they can resign Derozan if it works out.

27 Jul 2020 19:04:25
Dumb for both team. Both players need to be trade for youth, bigs or picks. Both team are loaded at pg sg sf.

27 Jul 2020 11:17:21
Knicks get Paul, Roby, 2 seconds via OKC

Hornets get Randle, Ellington

Thunder get Batum, Portis, 2020 Hornets 1st, 2021 Dallas 1st via Knicks
***Re-sign Gallo for 3 years $33M, Noel 2 years $15M, Roberson 2 year minimum.

SGA, Schroeder
Dort, Diallo
Roberson, Batum
Gallinari, Bazley, Portis
Adams, Noel

***Portis and Batum can get flipped at the deadline to teams angling for more cap space. This rotation doesn't include picks and if they can bring in a player or to in free agency.

27 Jul 2020 11:42:20
Hornets not giving up that pick.

27 Jul 2020 12:19:18
Again OKC not getting a lottery pick for Paul no matter how many times you try.

27 Jul 2020 12:52:32
hornets pick for randle? lol.

27 Jul 2020 13:14:21
Why Hornets giving up draft pick on an asset that can be traded at the deadline for a draft pick? Randle isn't going to win Charlotte a championship. Makes zero sense from their point of view.

27 Jul 2020 13:55:08
just why would charlotte do this?

27 Jul 2020 17:39:36
Wouldnt it make more sense for Charlotte to make Gallo a 3yr/ $45 mil offer than to trade a draft pick to get Randle?

27 Jul 2020 22:24:39
Would make sense but they can offer him but gallo would not go to Charlotte especially when okc has his bird rights and can sign and trade him and get back what they want for him.

28 Jul 2020 01:31:13
OKC doesn't have to do anything. They are a top ten team right now with all those picks stacked. They love Paul and won't trade him unless he wants to be traded. Haven't heard a word here about him wanting to leave and if he does, it's going to be for whatever OKC wants.

27 Jul 2020 05:25:00
three team trade

my hornets- chris paul, al horford, matisse thybulle

thunder- batum, ben simmons

sixers- dennis schroder, tyler zeller, terry rozier, 2 first round pick( miami 2021, clippers 2022)
hornets get a young player for taking huge contracts. and I think paul and horford could be successful in charlotte.

thunder send an old star with huge contract and get young one. ben simmons is better than everybody that thunder can draft with those picks.and those picks will be late anyway.

sixers- they dump horford and get salary relief for next seasons. they also get 2 good guard and a back up center. ben simmons and embiid can't play together they have to choose one.

27 Jul 2020 11:43:24
Horrible for the sixers.

27 Jul 2020 15:25:22
No way phi would accept this.

27 Jul 2020 22:26:26
I really don’t want Simmons in okc either he is like another Westbrook he can’t shoot okc needs to start picking players that don’t just drive to the basket but that can also shoot as well.

28 Jul 2020 01:35:10
Simmons can't shoot. Can't win if a star can't shoot. Everyone has learned that with Westbrook. Simmons is a one dimensional player and isn't worth as much as many people think.

23 Jul 2020 20:59:02
I love this trade idea so much had to post it 2x but this time correctly. 🤣

Suns get Wall Beal Robinson Ntilikina Knox

Wizards get Barrett Wiseman-ny Vassell-suns dal 21 23 1st

OKC get Rubio Smithjr (Gibson Payton Ellington-release)

Knicks get Booker CP3 Lecque

23 Jul 2020 22:45:25
Suns don’t need Robinson so switch him to wizards and both Dal late 1sts to PHX. Wizards can draft a PG (Ball/ Hayes) with Knicks 1st.

24 Jul 2020 03:50:05
Okc gets the rubbish end of that deal if I’m okc I just keep Chris and try it one more season and add me a good wing player that’s about all there missing is one more scorer in the starting 5 who can score at least 15 a night and play D

24 Jul 2020 05:49:24
There is some problem with your trade. İt has to be before New season start because release date for gibson payton ellington 17 october. When u do trade before free agency salaries don't match. And okc get more salary than they send. İf they get more salary their tax money will be higher. To avoid from that they have to do trade after New season start in 18 october. But this time they have to pay all money of gibson payton ellington.

22 Jul 2020 19:52:05
Suns get Wall Beal Ntilikina Knox

Wizards get Barrett Wiseman-ny 10th dal 21 23 1st

OKC get Rubio Smithjr (Gibson Payton Ellington-release)

22 Jul 2020 22:05:14
Knicks get CP3, not Wall?

22 Jul 2020 14:48:12
Jazz get Paul
***All in type of move for next season for Jazz.

Sixers get Conley
***Cut bait on Harris and nab a good point guard on an expiring contract.

Okc gets Harris, 2021 Jazz 1st
***Harris can provide some wing scoring which is sorely needed. This saves some money this season, and they can afford him moving forward. He could be flipped in a season or two if they want another asset later.

SGA, Schroeder
Dort, Diallo
Bazley, Ferguson
Harris, Muscala
Adams,

Plus they could retain Gallo, Noel, Dre, bring in a MLE (Joe Harris?), and add in their picks. Thoughts?

22 Jul 2020 15:55:45
Because of the protections on the 2020 Utah owed to Mempbis, the "2021 first" that you are trading is actually more like a 2024 first.

Seriously doubt Paul gets OKC Harris + first. Straight up seems more accurate.

If OKC resigns everybody, how far into the luxury cap will they be and still have 0% chance to win a championship?

22 Jul 2020 16:37:12
This definitely seems like a swap that just flips these three players. No picks needed.

But if you take out the pick, I like it for all teams.

22 Jul 2020 17:45:22
Cp3 is an upgrade over Conley so the pick is needed. Philly give up horford instead and okc get horford and the pick.

22 Jul 2020 17:50:07
Harris and pick homer trade idea.

22 Jul 2020 17:57:01
If okc getting Horford they should get the pick. If okc getting Harris sixers should get the pick. And make it 2020 pick.

22 Jul 2020 18:40:47
Paul is an upgrade over Conley on the court. But not in trade value.

22 Jul 2020 19:59:25
Paul is an upgrade of Conley on talent, but a downgrade on contract.

23 Jul 2020 03:19:15
What if Paul stays same for the next 3 years.

25 Jul 2020 22:53:05
Zero percent chance for OKC to win the championship Fredman? Owning the draft over the next ten years. You have the Thunder confused with the Kings.

30 Jul 2020 20:05:37
And you have late picks confused with lottery ones.

31 Jul 2020 12:29:29
How do you know where the picks will be? Are you from the future?

18 Jul 2020 07:59:18
sixers: beal, adams

okc: embiid

wizards: horford, 2 first from sixers, 4 first from okc.

18 Jul 2020 08:50:10
If I'm Philly I'd rather Horford than Adams and Embiid is way better than Beal. Then you expect them to give up 2 firsts as well.

18 Jul 2020 09:06:29
embiid is better than beal when he plays. but he miss half of the games and sometimes he don't want to play. beal is more consistent than embiid.

18 Jul 2020 09:47:42
At this stage of his career I would take the chance on Embiid's health. Rather have someone that can play defense.

18 Jul 2020 12:48:54
if WAS is getting 6 FRP for Beal, then how must should MIL ask for Giannis. 25 FRP?

18 Jul 2020 14:47:17
No way does wizards get 6 picks maybe 4 and a good young player but not six everyone assumes that cause Paul George and Anthony Davis got back a good haul that Beal will get that kind of package don’t get me wrong Beal is good but he isn’t that good.

18 Jul 2020 16:07:25
Not all first round picks are created equal. Davis has a top 4 pick included. George has a young stud in SGA. Those picks are likely all outside of the lottery. I don’t really like the return for Beal.

When you trade a star, you want at least one asset that you think has a good chance at becoming a star. Washington doesn’t get one here.

18 Jul 2020 16:15:44
I feel that if philly took away a first it would be a valid trade. Simmons and Beal would go well together and the sixers would be able to dump horford’s awful contract. 5 firsts for Beal seems like a lot but they are all from great teams. Plus, the wizards don’t get any youth which is why it would take that many firsts.

18 Jul 2020 21:56:30
Wizards take on Horford so that guarantees 2 1sts just for that. 4 more 1sts for Beal is pretty good, however they will all most likely been outside lottery so idk if they do it unless they get a good player.

19 Jul 2020 21:07:39
With Horford in there I still do not see Beal getting them 6 picks he is a good player and there will be other teams willing to take on Horford without giving up picks and I proposed a deal of okc giving up 4 picks and Luguentz dort who has potential to be a damn good player and Dennis Schröder and that wasn’t good enough for some people Dort is a promising young player so what’s wrong with that trade and Schröder is damn good as well plus you are getting 4 picks.

21 Jul 2020 21:26:19
And u just said not all picks are created equal we’ll tell me this the 3 draft picks la sent to New Orleans for Davis are going to be the latest picks probably pick number 30 on all 3 and Lonzo ball is ok will never be a star Josh Hart is a good role player And Ingram is the only all star type player given so basically u got 3 late firsts and a mid range first in Lonzo and a top 4 in Ingram and Hart was drafted late so where is the difference in tho okc picks other than at least okcs picks at least will be way above 30 20s or higher depending on what happens in the next 2 seasons so like I said 4 picks Luguentz Dort and Dennis Schröder for Bradley Beal there is no damn difference u get 4 first in the mid 20s plus a good player in Dort who I think personally will average 20 easy when he matures and Schröder fetches a first easy he scored 20 a game easily if someone else wants to throw more for Beal by all means go for it cause he is not worth more than that his defense is rubbish he is good on offense but he isn’t a two way player like Paul George or Anthony Davis.

17 Jul 2020 00:21:31
PHI - OKC

If the thing with Simmons moving to power forward works out.

Harris + Horford

For

Paul.

17 Jul 2020 04:06:48
Seriously doubt OKC is willing to take on the additional $12 mil in salary PER YEAR for the next 3 years.

17 Jul 2020 04:11:25
Wtf 🤣🤣🤣. The president of sixers just unfriended you on fb.

17 Jul 2020 05:28:06
Salaries? 20 million difference. Add player from okc and pick from sixers.

17 Jul 2020 06:29:19
Salaries don't match.

17 Jul 2020 12:33:29
Yup. OKC has to add Adams or Schroeder to get the salaries right.

18 Jul 2020 14:48:12
No way would I do that deal if I’m okc.

16 Jul 2020 20:35:29
76ers - CP3 Dort and Ferguson
Thunder - Harris Scott and Smith

76ers - Batum(exp)
Hornets - Horford Thybulle and 1st

76ers: Trade for shorter contracts. CP3 gives them leadership and another playmaker. Losing Thybulle will hurt but Dort has shown great defensive potential as well

Thunder: Harris has longer contract but is young and play alongside SGA

Hornets: Takes on Horford who actually fills a need. Thybulle brings them much needed defense. Extra 1st also is a good deal

CP3
Richardson
Batum
Simmons
Embiid

Schroeder
SGA
Harris
Gallo
Adams

Graham
Rozier
Thybulle
Washington
Horford

16 Jul 2020 22:36:27
I was offering Lowry for Horford Thybulle and first. Are you saying Batum=Lowry?

17 Jul 2020 03:16:28
1. I was comparing my trade to yours
2. Why would Toronto (a contending team) trade their 2nd best player for Horford? When they can resign Ibaka or Gasol.

17 Jul 2020 04:40:05
No way would thunder do that not with Dort in there they just got Dort on a damn good contract maybe cp3 and Ferguson and Diallo but Dort and Bazley are untouchable unless they are going after a player like Bradley Beal.

16 Jul 2020 07:42:20
MOVES FOR MY HORNETS

first trade

sixers- second round pick from hornets (top 55 protected)

hawks- batum, 2021 first round pick from sixers

hornets- horford, okc pick from sixers.

sixers get slaray cap relief. hawks get first round for batum's expiring contract.my hornets get a good veteran presence and first round pick.

second trade

jazz- rozier, zeller

hornets- conley, jazz 2020 first round pick.

after this trades our salary will be around 81 million. add 3 rookies from draft it will be 90 million. we will have some money depends on where will salary cap drops. I think it will between 105-110. we can give a player 15-20 million or 2 players 8-10 million.
fournier, clarkson,jerami grant, joe harris, bertans, crowder are good candidates.

16 Jul 2020 08:59:19
Why do you want Horford and Conley? Neither one would be around by the time you're ready to make a legitimate title run. Better to bite the bullet and go with kids. For two decades the Knicks have done what you want to do, and look where it got them.

16 Jul 2020 10:53:28
2 First round picks to get rid of Horford is way too much. They can do much better than that if they want to get rid of him. They need to get someone in return to replace him.

Second trade seems like a good trade for both parties.

16 Jul 2020 11:57:14
What Warlock said.

16 Jul 2020 13:31:37
legitimate title run? we are charlotte hornets not la or gsw. no one will come to charlotte. we won't be in title run. only way we get a good player is draft and we are the worst team in drafting. they are old but at least they are better than batum williams biyombo etc.

16 Jul 2020 13:56:04
Asdenam, as a King's fan I can relate.

16 Jul 2020 18:02:43
After BLM and the news came out about racial abuse players got in Boston, The Cs city lost all accountability for bringing free agent far greater than Dolan and Knicks. Before you appraise the Cs and talk down about Knicks remember that over the next 10 yrs supercol.

16 Jul 2020 21:07:45
So Doncic signs with Boston then, shizzee?

And it doesn't really matter because Boston won't have cap space until Hayward is sent packing.

16 Jul 2020 00:21:47
