McCain nets a better pick than AD. Cool.

It´s almost like Presti been doing this crap for years.  

I also tend to fall into the trap of saying they have too many picks, but part of having too many picks is that you don´t need to rate a 2026 Houston first and a bunch of 2nd rounders. You can just trade them for semi-proven players on rookie deals.

This will never end with OKC. They are so loaded with picks that Presti will roll them over endlessly and cherry-pick, which are the ones that are kept and which are moved along for actual player assets like McCain.

McCain costs 48 mil cheaper and isn't 34.

That's why he's the best in the biz.

When you can't play 5 games in a row, you get aged up a year. 

This increases exponentially.
