    It would be poetic justice if we get Whiteside

    I am a huge Jahlil Okafor fan. It's probably not even possible but the kid has major game!!

    First round draft pick, 2nd round draft pick, Ariza, Beasley, Capella, Beverley for Westbrook commitment to sign extension.

    You almost have to get the whole Hassan Whiteside-DeAndre Jordan back out to make this happen. Without Whiteside OKC would likely be the better destination.

    Westbrook/Harden/Brewer/Anderson/Nene?
    Westbrook/Harden/Brewer/Anderson/Whiteside?

    The roster would look sexy af if we could slide in kj instead of Ariza.

    Westbrook/Harden/Ariza/Anderson/Whiteside

    +Gordon+Nene... even sexier if we could trade the rooks and keep Beasley. Remember how amazing Beasley looked in the pick n roll? Yeah MDA is a PnR coach. Beasley is a candidate for 6moty, though he will likely be 7th man behind Gordon.

    Morey are you reading? Send someone to whisper in Whiteside's ear now before it's too late.

    Honestly right now, we've got nothing to lose...

    A starting 5 of:

    Bev
    Harden
    Ariza
    Anderson
    Whiteside

    With Eric Gordon, Beasley, Bev, and Capela off the bench would be a contending team.

    Please for the love of God, do this.

    I keep wondering this myself. I don't know if they're going to deal with Houston, but something tells me that either Knight or Bledsoe are going to be gone before the start of the season. Their roster just doesn't make any sense right now.

    If we land bledsoe or knight, at age 26 and 24, and both averaged 20 a game last year, we have 2 guys who score better than our second option last year, wow. Thatd be a 4th seed if we gel right and run dantonis system well. Fun team to watch if it happens!

    Thought it was Korver (BIRDs), but he's saying there are "scenarios" and "don't be surprised"...

    Nawh it's a PG not korver because #1 he mentions BEV and #2 then says runs pick and roll to perfection

    Maybe it's Vasquez. A former bird who is old and can run a pnr.
    And also Morey wanted him before. And is still an UFA.

    I honestly can't think of who he could be referring to when he says an old durable point guard that runs the pick and roll to perfection

    Ah that could make sense. I've actually wanted them to get him for years as well. I'll write last year off
