    Why wouldn't he sign and extension to play with Durant, Ibaka, and Harden?

    I would definitely do it, but i don't think Dwight would agree to the extension. He said that he wants to be the "man" of the team

    Yes, but I would have to find a PG to manage the point along with eric maynor.

    The Thunder already said no to a Harden+Ibaka for Howard trade. Why would they trade Westbrook for him?

    They said no because Dwight wouldn't resign.

    Chris Mannix: Oklahoma City is not in the Dwight Howard sweepstakes. Not giving up Harden/Ibaka. Not happening. Twitter

    I think they would do it if Dwight would sign an extension. Giving up both Ibaka and Harden to rent Dwight is risking way too much.

    Debatable. I think the Thunder have done a good job building their team thus far. Wouldn't you agree?

    Harden isn't overrated. He is scoring 17ppg at 479% from the field. Thats very, very good. He is a good passer, can play the pick and roll well, is a good ball handler, is a good rebounder, plays good defense. He's very young. He is turning into a top SG in the league whether you believe it or not.

    Ibaka is very young and althletic. Ibaka almost won DPOY last year. Isn't that what Dwight's specialty anyway?

    I don't think they are a bunch of dumbasses for not trading two of their best homegrown young prospects, both with very high ceilings, for Dwight. Especially for a rental. They have a chance to win a chip with the team as is. After all, they are sitting at the top of the western conference....

    Who would run the point for OKC, then? I don't even know their backup PG, honestly.

    that would be a problem. Maynor was a great backup, as jvg called him the best playmaker on the team. The team seemed to play better when he was running the plays.

    Now he is gone for the season so I don't know, they would have to make another trade.
