OKC GM is a genius!

I just noticed that somehow the Thunder have the Raptors first round pick (11).  How does this guy consistently get top picks in the draft?

    There GM is very good.

    Because he makes trades and isn’t afraid of making changes. He doesn’t just let every trade deadline go while saying: “We’ll see what happens in the offseason”.

    Hoopsworld writer thinks even though Hornets have Vasquez they will go after Smart in the draft. Will they keep Vasquez or try to trade for a big?? Don’t be too surprised if Smart goes # 1..

    Okc has no need for youth though, i see them trading this one.

    Cuz they played the hell out of their young draft picks, traded their young players (after properly evaluation) lile Green for talent and future picks, or traded players they couldn’t afford like Harden for talent and future picks, and throughout traded players that were not being used like Aldridge, Mullins, etc….for more talent and future picks!

    Jazz cant even properly evaluate the young talent we have, and horde mediocre to scrub level vets?! Lol…wtf?!

    That team is gonna have ab avg age of 22.. those picks are gonna give okc that solid and affordable player they need… jazz management makes me sick.. like gtfoh..

    Omar I swear we got the same thoughts about this team.. how did the jazz manage to fk something so easy up. That okc model has been fked for 2 years.. really ctfo…

    @pintz11, and sad part is we been calling this since last year!! Jazz had 4 lottery picks on rookie contracts, and in a flash—next year Favors and Hayward are on last year of contract! Wtf has have Jazz organization been doing but a whole lotta nothing! We are suppose to believe that Sap and Al couldn’t get us 2 first round picks—at LEAST!!

    Instead, nada, and Kanter and Favors getting scrub minutes compared to Adam Morrison—freaking Adam Morrison?! Lmao! Get out a here! Burks getting DNPed for Watson?! Damn! Hayward on the bench behind Foye?! And no extra picks from any of the players leaving anyways—and NO playoffs?! FML!!

    As coach Belichick says, “better to trade a guy a year early then a year late.” Sorry jazz but your a year late.
