    Yeah seemed like we heard all the same rhetoric when Harden was moved. Not available, etc.

    It would devastate the franchise if he walks but OKC doesn't really have the assets to attain a second (or third) star to make them competitive enough for a title during WB's prime (3-4 years).

    Phoenix has enough assets to risk him leaving next season and can put together a really attractive package while dumping Bledsoe on a third team (SAC/BKN/CHA/MIL come to mind as potential landing spots).

    It'll be interesting but PHX could be really good in 2-3 years without trading for WB - they've drafted really well in the past 2-3 seasons.
