    So does that mean Maynor went from Utah to OKC for basically nothing and from OKC to Portland for basically nothing?
    I remember a lot of posters on this board going on about what a steal it was for OKC and how smart Presti was. I guess we will all see.

    It's being reported as no pick going out, just a trade exception for OKC.

    Nice deal by Olshey.

    Maynor should be really happy because he will have significant minutes.

    For Oshley it's a great deal. Our TE expires after today. It's a win win because we can easily renounce or resign him and wont even lose cap space (unless we resign)

    Maynor has potential. He will be getting legitimate minutes now, also.

    It will be nice seeing someone other than Nolan or Ronnie out there. Now to replace the rest of the bench.

    Yup. That's all young guys looking for a contract really need/want. Ample opportunity here.

    If healthy and he can return to form, he's exactly the type of guard that Lillard needs to play with.

    What was his injury, when did he return, how long was he out?

    Yeah I'm really impressed with this deal. I mean it's not one that completely moves the needle; but it's a chance to take care of a pressing need without having to sacrafice too much. Also, this gives Oshley more room to find that starting center.

    I really have a feeling that maybe, just maybe, we get Lopez!

    The Thunder are getting Ronnie Brewer from the Knicks after this deal.

    Torn ACL.

    He came back a bit ago, but just took his brace off last week or so. It's been a little over 13 months now since his knee was injured I believe.

    As far as not moving the needle - if healthy, I disagree.

    This is the best our PG situation has looked in a very, very long time. IF he returns to form.

    Well if you think it can move the needle; than it's a for sure thing. He didn't rely on athleticism as much as most PGs in the league. He was just a solid "heady" player.

    Quick thinks Elliot will be waived to make room.

    He is lightyears worse that Brook; but he is a physical player. He also can block and alter shots too.
