    He isn't a creator. That is why Hedo is better.

    there is a link to Storyteller's player contracts right here at S2. It's located in the drop down SportsTwo menu on the top right of the screen.

    Collison is due 6.25 and 6.75M the next two years... I wonder how KP would feel about adding a Kansas guy?

    That's really not that bad a contract; I don't see OKC wanting so badly to dump it that they'd part with the #3 pick, especially to a division rival.

    Agreed. Even if they keep Collison, they have far more cap-space than we do! They have no reason to be looking for "salary dump" deals.

    I doubt if OKC will dump Collision or trade the 3 pick. The desperately need bigs to go with their young perimeter players. Collison is the best big they currently have (I know he plays the 4 for them but U don't really consider Jeff Green a "big"), and with the 3rd pick, they could grab Thabeet. With Durant, Green and Westbrook, they don't need a lot of scoring out of their center, just rebounding and defense. Thabeet could give them that, and Collison can back up both the 4 and 5.

    Sweet! I didn't know we had that link. I suppose I need to get out more when it comes to my surfing of S2. Thanks for the info, STOMP.

    I would love to try and get #3 and Collison ... but for what?
