    harpring had zero value to okc, they merely absorbed him in order to get maynor.


    blake/outlaw have a little more id say, because at least blake is going to play a game this year.

    So, what are they chances OKC "flips" Harpring's expiring, insurance paid contract (perhaps along with pieces) for a big on another cash strapped team?

    Damn, Presti really is impressing me.

    This deal saves Utah about 10M after Harpring's payout for the insurance (includes luxury tax). Utah also gained a huge trade exception, Boozer trade coming soon?

    presti is a beast in trades, but his drafting is so/so

    evans> harden at the same position

    westbrook gets alot of hype but the guy is a turnover machine and shooting under 40%

    green is nice enough but noah hawes or thad young would be better.

    freaking genius in stockpiling draft picks though, damn, their roster is an upside goldmine.
