View Full Version : Pistons/OKC possibilities? Glenn 01-05-2009, 12:26 PM http://newsok.com/trading-season-abo...rticle/3335369 Earl Watson here we come. Yeah, Daddy. Rip for Earl/Joe Smith/unprotected 1st? WTFchris 01-05-2009, 01:08 PM I'd do that deal. Would they? Durant has improved his 3 point shooting (so has RIP), so I guess they could compliment each other ok. But why wouldn't they just get a big man in the draft to pair with Durant? WTFchris 01-05-2009, 01:14 PM What about including Max and Damien Wilkins in the deal? They get some inside help and we get a versitile wing that can backup the 1,2,3 with Afflalo. Joe Asberry 01-05-2009, 05:05 PM unprotected 1st? of course, but thats a top 4 pick definitly, so that won't happen, its their most valuable asset, they won't give it up for RIP DrRay11 01-05-2009, 05:07 PM unprotected 1st? of course, but thats a top 4 pick definitly, so that won't happen, its their most valuable asset, they won't give it up for RIP 2nded. Zekyl 01-06-2009, 12:45 PM Is it still a top 4 pick if they have Rip and Durant out there? You don't think it'd be a worse pick once they pick up a fringe all-star SG? Glenn 01-06-2009, 12:47 PM And it doesn't have to be a 2009 unprotected, either. So if they think they are actually going to get better... Vinny 01-06-2009, 01:44 PM And it doesn't have to be a 2009 unprotected, either. So if they think they are actually going to get better... Yeah, this could be Memphis all over again in a couple years!!! We can draft the next Darko in 2012. WTFchris 01-06-2009, 02:47 PM Is it still a top 4 pick if they have Rip and Durant out there? You don't think it'd be a worse pick once they pick up a fringe all-star SG? Of course they'd be better. Still, how many teams would they be favored against out west? Minny, GS, LAC, Sactown and Memphis are pretty much it for bad teams. They'd still have 15-20 mil in cap space next year with RIP. Supposing Westbrook continues to develop you'd have 3 good perimeter players and a couple complementary big men as well. They'd just need an inside scorer. Not sure if they could get Boozer or Marion but that would make them a decent team. |
