PG to OKC

Meh. Wiggins is extremely overrated. And I question the overall fit of those players tbh.

Hmm, I disagree. Wiggins is fantastic for a player his age(22) and having 5 players who can all shoot and some solid defenders is a solid base. They just need Wiggins and KAT(21) to keep developing. I think Butlers work ethic and insistence on playing hard defense will rub off well on those young guys. I think they are still a couple years from being scary though. When KAT and Wiggins are mid 20s.. watch out.
 
I'm sad that the Jazz didn't get in on the PG13 sweepstakes. The Jazz have basically been building a modern version of the 2004 Pistons. PG13 would have given them a STAR two-way player who could complete that vision.

Rubio, PG13, Hayward, Favors, Gobert - Damn!

Mitchell, Neto, Hood/Exum (assuming one would be part of the trade for PG), JJ, Bolomboy and Bradley. Maybe keep Jingles.

Trade Diaw for a backup PG or PF. Add an MLE guy and a couple of minimum veteran righ chasers. . . that's the 2nd best team in the West. Plus, not extending Hill/Jingles gives the Jazz some cap space to bring PG back if they could talk him into abandoning his LA dreams.
 
Great move by the Thunder. It's probably just a 1 year rental, but they got out of Oladipo's terrible contract. I expect both Westbrook and George to leave next year.
 
Well I think GSW may have a slightly more difficult road to the Finals. Not sure it changes the outcome though
Ya, I like this aspect of these trades. Plus they gonna lose iggy

I agree except I think they are scary already

I agree with this. Still would have liked to see the Jazz go outside their comfort zone to rent PG13. Think that would have been epic for Utah.
