    Isn't that 2x +1 though?
    So they'd be taking a salary cap hit for 7 years.
    They're not going anywhere for a while, might as well wait it out for two years with him on the squad as Borat suggests.

    $22M a year cap hit for seven years?

    Sounds good in theory, but is the player willing to play along?

    they must have an idea what they're gonna do. Cp3 may give them big problems demanding to be traded.

    it's the end if the road for him and hes nit gonna wanna be stuck on a shit team.

    This offseason really has been the most exciting and fascinating one ever. lmao

    So hate that Presti is getting all these building blocks. Getting bailed out.

    When does it end? I'm waiting for the big, ridiculous John Wall or Brad Beal trade

    Thunder might as well trade for Wall too. They'd have the two worst contracts in the league an 8 million draft picks.

    League vetoed Paul's trade to the Lakers and now his fate is sealed. Spends much of his prime a Clipper and goes out on a losing team

    Picks are risky. Go ask the Celtics and Danny Ainge.

    Houston box scores are going to be epic next year.

    Harden, 53 points, 22 assists, 15 turnovers
    Westbrook 52 points (sacrificing his game for the team), 21 assists, 15 rebounds, 21 turnovers

    Houston loses 145-110.

    One offseason after another. Some seem to think next year's offseason will be quiet because of the lack of big names in FA. Think again. Just means the trade market is going to be extra-silly

    Point taken, but I'd say Kyrie Irving was more of the problem there.
    Picks are liquid assets that can be moved or developed.
    OKC has assets now. Before they had a dead-end Westbrook/George pairing.

    Ainge is a jackass though. Had multiple opportunities to deal those picks for star talent and kept trying to hoard guys like Jaylen Brown instead.

    It's not a playoff team, it's a high lottery team, so like no man's land.
