They may not. I'd think at this point without a team immediately jumping into take him the most likely scenario is they keep him and hope he pulls a Chris Paul and ups his trade value.
I think it's way more likely this happens. Last year folks wanted to Presti to trade everyone meanwhile they actually finished with a better record than the Mavs and only lost game 7 to the Rockets by two points. OKC wants to be good.
- Green is a huge upgrade over Dort
- Paul is a huge loss but fans think SGA is ready to take the next step. Backfilling Paul with Rubio is a great move.
- Oubre replaces much of Schroeder's scoring
I really like what the Thunder have done so far ....
