    Did anyone really think Jackson was staying put in OKC after this season? Even if the Thunder were willing to pay him, wouldn't he wanna go somewhere he could start?

    Can we call this the "trade that didn't accomplish anything"?

    Woj needs to stop ******* around with these funk master flex bombs and just drop the whole trade in 1 tweet. Also, I can't wait til JR looks off LeBron to launch a 30 footer. And if Reggie is involved then OKC ownership is a becoming a joke. Sending out Reggie Jackson to take on Dion Waiters?! Just to control a player for an extra year in their rookie deal. Free Russy and KD!

    Even if they were going to lose him, you have to hold on to him for this years Finals run. You can't just keep trading away pieces on a team with a prime KD and Westbrook.

    Yes, Jackson can help Calderon out.

    Jackson not included in the deal. Dang... Wished to see him leave OKC. I saw on Twitter that NYC isn't taking anything back. Trying to clear salary.

    This move guarantees the Knicks 15 wins from here on out

    Well, it sucks that OKC isn't giving up Jackson. But the bright side is he won't be in uniform for them come Thursday when the Rockets are playing at the Knicks.

    Would Reggie look good as a Rocket? I like him, but he isn't a 3 point shooter. I doubt if they will trade him to us, but I am curious.

    So ... what is OKC actually giving up to get Dion Waiters?

    Don't worry about 3 point shooting right now. No one us going to shoot that good here because there is no rhythm. We need a PG that can do the basics, run an offense, create, playmake... in time the 3 ball will return.

    Got a laugh from Broussard tweeting incorrect trade info after Woj already tweeted the news
