Oklahoma City Thunder Rumours

01 Jul 2024 03:01:15
Cleveland gets: Keyonte George, Taylor Hendricks, Tari Eason, Jock Landale and 2025 first from Rockets via OKC or BKN
Utah gets: Darius Garland, Max Strus and Georges Niang
Houston gets: Jarrett Allen

Why?
Cleveland adds young quality players and dump some bad contracts.
Utah gets their point guard of the future.
Houston gets much needed size.

23 Jun 2024 04:11:11
Cleveland receives: 12th pick from OKC
Oklahoma receives: '31 top 5 protected first (top 5 '32, otherwise 2 2nds)

Why?
Cleveland gets another cost-controlled player.
OKC doesn't have more room for rookies, they need to compromise.

23 Jun 2024 12:00:16
I know what you're getting at but OKC is not at that point right now. If they had to do something like this, they could do better.

05 Jun 2024 17:42:17
Some lowkey moves from teams in the offseason if they cant pull a blockbuster trade.

Nuggets - sign Gordon Hayward
Pelicans/Magic - sign Tyus Jones
Lakers - find way to get Caruso & KCP back
Thunder - add Isaiah Hartenstein
Kings - trade away Huerter for a 3 and D wing like Caruso, Bruce Brown, etc. or PF who plays D like Vanderbilt etc.
Warriors - grab an available not so expensive big like Holmes, Capela or anyone

02 Jun 2024 13:38:12
OKC/WAS

OKC get Kyle Kuzma, pick 26
- Kuzma is a good fit with this young Thunder team. He adds size and rebounding which they lack

Pg Shai
Sg Dort
Sf Williams
Pf Kuzma
Ce Chet

WAS get Josh Giddey, Kenrich Williams, Ousmane Dieng & pick 12
- Washington could be a good destination for Giddey. They move up also in the draft

Pg Giddey
Sg Poole
Sf Avdija
Pf Williams
Ce Pick

05 Jun 2024 00:04:27
Deing and 12 pick is major over pay for Kuzma.

28 May 2024 23:08:35
Jazz - Okc

Jazz- giddey, dieng, 4 1st

Okc- markkanen

29 May 2024 13:22:57
Utah would be a good place for Giddey.

28 May 2024 01:55:26
If Lebron leaves LA

LAL/OKC

LAL get Josh Giddey, Jaylin Williams, Ousmane Dieng, 4 1st round picks & 2 pick swaps

OKC get Anthony Davis

Davis can push this OKC team to a championship caliber squad

LA should go for the rebuild

Pg SGA/Wallace
Sg Dort/Wiggins
Sf Williams/FA
Pf Davis/K.Williams
Ce Holmgren/FA

28 May 2024 03:00:32
Think the Lakers can do way better. No blue chip prospects or high level picks there, it's just a pu pu platter.

28 May 2024 13:55:15
Add 2 more picks.

22 May 2024 13:03:08
Okc - j collins

Uta - j giddey, k williams, 2 2nd rd picks

Okc adds size

Shai wallace
Dort wiggins joe
Williams dieng
Collins pick fa
Holmgren Jaylin

Uta takes on giddey who could have his freewill to work

Giddey george
Sexton clarkson
Markkanen tht
Hendricks bazley
Kessler yurtseven

22 May 2024 19:19:28
The Jazz got him for Rudy Gay and a 2nd. He has no value.

23 May 2024 04:01:25
Nightcap, does Giddey have particularly high value either?
I don't hate this for OKC, Collins can fix some of their rebounding issues as well as bringing a little bit of experience.

23 May 2024 11:32:09
Giddey probably has mid to latter first value, more than Collins.

24 May 2024 15:12:36
I can’t see anyone giving up a first for Giddy. Maybe a second or two.

21 May 2024 13:41:49
OKC - NY - NOP

OKC - Julius Randle
- adds size and a big who can create

SGA / Wallace
Dort / Wiggins
Williams / Joe / Dieng
Randle / Williams
Holmgren / Williams

NY - Brandon Ingram, Larry Nance Jr & 1st round pick from OKC
- adds additional threat to help Brunson

Brunson / McBride
Hart / Divincenzo
Ingram / Burks
Anunoby / Achiuwa
Hartenstein / Nance Jr / Sims

NOP - Josh Giddey, Mitchell Robinson & 2nd round pick from OKC & NY
- adds a tall playmaking guard and a center who can protect the rim

Giddey / Alvarado / Hawkins
McCollum / Daniels
Murphy / Jones
Williamson / Marshall
Robinson / free agent / pick

21 May 2024 19:55:58
Easiest no from Pelicans.

21 May 2024 08:29:21
OKC:M Bridges

Nets:Giddey+ 1rnd pick Miami 25 (top 14 protected)+ 1rnd pick Philly (top 6 protected+ 1rnd pick Denver 27 (top 5 protected)

OKC
C:Holmgren
PF:Williams
SF:Bridges
SG:Dort
PG:SGA

21 May 2024 10:42:44
I don't think Bridges solves OKC height/ rebounding issues.

21 May 2024 12:36:50
None of those picks are anything great and how valuable is Giddey when he can't get minutes in the playoffs and is due a new contract?

19 May 2024 05:27:01
Guys what do you think about this

Pels - dejounte murray + clint capela, okc pick swap

Murray Alvarado
McCollum Daniels Hawkins
Murphy Jones
Zion Marshall
Capela Nance

Okc - brandon ingram, garrison matthews

SGA Wallace
Dort Wiggins
Ingram Joe Matthews
Williams free agent
Chet Williams

Atl - josh giddey, kenrich williams, ousmane dieng, robinson-earl, 1st round pick from okc

Young Bufkin
Giddey Bogdanovic
Bey Griffin Dieng
Johnson Hunter Williams
Sarr Okongwu

19 May 2024 11:48:05
First off I'd say it's horrible for Atlanta.

Don't like it for OKC either. BI can be awesome, but with their assets they can get someone who's more of a sure thing. I mean, he was getting benched in the playoffs, has been a bit injury prone, and wants a new contract soon.

19 May 2024 16:47:35
I think it’s good actually.

19 May 2024 21:40:34
What good is Giddey for Atlanta?

27 Apr 2024 14:22:13
West 2nd round preview:

Okc vs Mavs- Shai vs Luka
Nuggets vs Twolves- Joker vs the Twin towers

24 Mar 2024 21:20:46
Suns: A Davis
OKC: K Durant
Lakers: Giddey+ 1rnd pick 24 Houston+1rnd pick 25 philly+ 1rnd pick Den 27-29

25 Mar 2024 06:12:53
I think the Suns should get one of those firsts as Durant > inconsistent Davis.

25 Mar 2024 12:42:04
Durant is the best player, but he's also 35 years old and he becomes 36 soon.

A booker-A Davis Tamdem could be cood for 5 or 6 years.

25 Mar 2024 21:38:20
None of those picks project to have high value, and Giddey is an ok player but not an easy fit plus due a new contract.

25 Mar 2024 22:31:04
I actually kinda like this one.

23 Mar 2024 13:55:08
OKC: Bridges+ Embiid

Nets: Giddey+Dort+ 1rnd pick Clippers 24

Philly: K Williams+ 1rnd pick Hou 24+1rnd pick Utah 24 (top 10 protected)+ 1rnd pick Miami 25+ 1rnd pick Hou/OKC/Clipp 25+ return 1rnd pick Philly 25+ 1rnd pick Denver 27+ 1rnd pick Dal 28+ 1rnd pick Denver 29

23 Mar 2024 18:49:52
Nets and Philly both say no.

23 Mar 2024 20:51:26
Chet is the minimum for Embiid. JDub is the minimum for Bridges. Stop living in fantasy land.

24 Mar 2024 09:49:10
8 draft picks is a good return for a superstar.

24 Mar 2024 18:32:02
It depends on the quality of the picks.

10 Mar 2024 10:16:02
Minny: D Garland+ Pokusevski+1rnd pick Clippers 27

Cle:KAT+ 1rnd pick Clip 24

OKC:J Allen

10 Mar 2024 13:57:15
Poku not in the league. Who plays point for Cavs?

10 Mar 2024 21:02:57
C:KAT
PF:Mobley
SF:Struss
SG:LeVert
PG:Mitchell.

17 Mar 2024 18:59:38
Charlotte Hornets are sending Aleksej Pokuševski? Are you sure?

31 Jan 2024 18:06:11
Thunder - Jazz

Thunder get Lauri Markkanen
- adds height and more firepower on the front court

SGA/Wallace/Wiggins
Dort/Joe/Micic
Williams/K.Williams/Dieng
Markkanen/Williams
Holmgren/Pokusevski

Jazz get Josh Giddey, Davis Bertans & 2 1st round picks
- get their guard of the future to grow with Kessler & Hendricks with more assets also incoming

Giddey/George
Sexton/Clarkson/THT
Fontechhio/Agbaji
Collins/Hendricks/Bertans
Kessler/Olynyk

31 Jan 2024 20:32:53
1st round picks are not created equal. If it's 2 picks very high like 4 and 8 then maybe. If it's 2 lottery protected picks then forget it.

01 Feb 2024 00:17:18
OKC really doesn’t have any great firsts. This would have to be like 4-6 firsts, and I lean toward the higher side. And im not sure Utah even takes that. They could find a blue chip prospect or a higher pick if they let Markkanen go. And those assets are far more valuable than a bunch of late firsts.

It’s possible that the only way OKC can land him is if they make Williams available. Which I doubt they do.

27 Jan 2024 18:05:27
Sixers acquire DeMar DeRozan, Lakers strengthen their bench, and Pistons add fuel to rebuild in 4-team, 10-player blockbuster deal.

PHI receive:
-DeMar DeRozan
-Joe Harris
-James Wiseman
-2025 2nd Round Pick (via LAL)

CHI receive:
-Rui Hachimura
-Marcus Morris Sr.
-2026 1st Round Pick (via PHI; least favorable of LAC, HOU, OKC picks)
-two 2024 2nd Round Picks (via PHI)
-2028 2nd Round Pick (via PHI)
-2028 2nd Round Pick (via DET)


DET receive:
-Tobias Harris
-KJ Martin Jr.
-Cam Reddish
-2029 1st Round Pick (via PHI) [Top-3 Protected]

LAL receive:
-Alex Caruso
-Monté Morris

17 Jan 2024 10:29:15
BKN/SAC/OKC

BKN get Davion Mitchell, Davis Bertans & 1st round pick from OKC, protected 1st from SAC (2 2nds if not conveyed)
- gets a young point guard & picks

SAC get Dorean Finney-Smith & Royce Oneale
- 2 defensive players that they need

OKC get Harrison Barnes
- get a vet leader

17 Jan 2024 13:38:07
Don't know why Sacramento does this. They give up the best player in this trade and a 1st round pick.

18 Jan 2024 17:43:19
I have to ask. Are you referring to Barnes or Mitchell as the best player?

19 Jan 2024 14:53:40
Why would OKC do that, for Harrison Barnes.

30 Dec 2023 20:58:37
Ok raptors made a trade with OG. It's about time they decided to go younger and get some scoring potential.

Now raptors need to trade siakim and one team comes to mind with draft picks and in need of a vet with post season experience.

OKC and Raptor's

Raptor's trade Trent Jr. And Siakim

OKC gives up giddey and a first rounder.

Raptor's new line up would be Giddey quickly barrett Barnes and poeltl.

31 Dec 2023 03:25:17
You need to think about salaries bro.

31 Dec 2023 14:42:12
Has Giddey been cleared by the authorities or the league? Because if he's guilty of a relationship with a minor, he may never play again.
So, nobody is trading for him until that situation is resolved.

05 Jan 2024 16:28:54
He's playing and it wasn't as serious as the media made it to be.

30 Dec 2023 10:34:43
1) Pacers-Cleveland-Bulls
Pacers:Caruso+Mobley
Bulls: J Walker
Cleveland: Toppin+ 1rnd pick Indy 24-26 + 1rnd pick Por 24 (top 14 protected)+ 2rnd pick Bulls 27+ swap option 1rnd pick Indy 25

2) Pacers-Tor
Pacers:Anunoby
Tor: Mathurin+ Hield+Sheppard+ 1rnd pick Clip/Hou/OKC 24

Pacers:
C:Turner/Jackson
PF:Mobley/Smith
SF:Anunoby/Nesmith
SG:Brown/Nembhard
PG:Haliburton/Caruso

30 Dec 2023 14:18:49
Cleveland won't trade Mobley, and if they did they'd get more.

30 Dec 2023 16:11:21
Yup that offer for Mobley can be easily beaten by the Thunder or Spurs.

24 Dec 2023 22:12:05
Pacers:J Grant+ M Bridges
Port: B Hield+ 1rnd pick Indy 24
Nets: Mathurin+ J Walker+ McCollum+ 1rnd pick OKC (or Hou/Clip)

Pacers:
C:Turner/Jackson
PF:Grant/Toppin/Smith
SF:Bridges/Nesmith
SG:Brown/Nembhard
PG:Haliburton/Sheppard

25 Dec 2023 01:24:16
Mccollum? Are we living in 2018?

25 Dec 2023 20:12:38
*McConnell.

26 Dec 2023 03:03:13
So not enough for Mikal Bridges.

26 Dec 2023 10:37:53
Not enough?
two young talents that were drafted in the lottery and a 1rnd pick should be enough for Bridges.

26 Dec 2023 23:26:01
Huge no from Portland. Buddy and a late first isn’t enough to let go of Grant’s steadying presence for the young guys.
