    So lopsided.

    OKC went from a high second round pick to a pick FOUR spots off from the lottery AND a 3pt shooting champion?

    Rockets, LA, and OKC for top three spots in the West by season's end.

    Thunder holding serious talks with Pacers to trade Eric Maynor, 18th and 21st picks for Indy's 10th pick, sources tell Y!

    To select a big man like Greg Monroe.

    Only way I would do that if I were the Thunder is if it were the 18th and 26th but not the 21st. Pacers are already getting Maynor in the deal. I wonder who the Thunder are eyeballin.

    Cole Aldrich maybe. All other big men better than Aldrich will be gone at #10. I don't know much about Ekpe Udoh.

    Well Aldrich is supposedly one of the most NBA ready Center's so you are probably right. Wonder who is gonna back up Westbrook though if Maynor gets dealt. Harden? or they gonna draft a PG?

    You're complaining that we couldn't acquire Corey Maggette and then in the next sentence you say that "we need an all-star not a bunch of cheap scrubs". Which is it? Maggette or an All-Star?

    Who's the one person that you think that we're getting our hopes up for? Bosh? He's an all-star, right? Signing him would definitely qualify as a "hell with the money" move.

    Are you really complaining about how Morey goes about his job? Just four months after he flipped McGrady and Landry for Martin, Hill, Jefferies and two potential lottery picks? Since the end of the '09 season we've acquired Ariza, Martin, Jeffries, Hill, Budinger, Taylor, Andersen and the Knicks 1st rounders for the next two years. Houston doesn't make it look easy? Who's done better?
