Wonder how much longer until Westbrook and/or Adams get traded. The OKC fire sale is on. Could open up another playoff spot in the West.

EDIT: I forgot that the Thunder got Gallo back in the PG deal. Just opening up minutes for him, I guess. Even though Grant is the better player in my eyes.

Geez that's a great pickup for Denver. They have to be the deepest team in the league. Where will they find minutes for these guys? Not to mention Porter.

It seems like OKC has to trade Russ before the season starts. Would be a tough conversation to be like "hey man, we just traded your running mate for future assets but we still think we can win with you". Russ did re-up a couple years ago when things looked bleak for OKC and it's possible he wants to stay and finish his career there, but seems more probable that he's on the move too.

Adams will be tougher to deal cuz he's still owed $50 mil over the next two years. Seems more likely that he'll be dealt next summer when he's an expiring contract.

Quote:

Adam Silver said there was discussion about a "more expansive" review system, but the competition committee was concerned with game flow.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver on early free agency deals & possible tampering: "We always knew there was some leakage and slippage around those deadlines. I think the consensus (at our league meetings) is that we need to revisit and reset those rules."

Silver said there was consensus there is a need to review rules about when free agent negotiations begin, saying it is "pointless to have rules we can't enforce." Said there was "slippage around that."

Silver: "Everybody should have an interest in the rule of law in this league. ... I think we can do a better job, I think these are fixable issues."

Silver says there could be an opening up of the league's television deal with its partners in order to "better optimize" the product.

Silver says he isn't concerned about the number of rookies who aren't playing in Summer League this year. Calls it "unique circumstances."

Silver said the intention of summer league is to get exposure for non drafted players, called having the high draft picks play "fun." Called it "unique circumstances" that many are sitting out.

Silver: "My sense in the room today, when it comes to free agency and the rules around it, is we've got work to do." My job is to enforce a fair set of rules. I think right now, we're not quite there."

NBA commissioner Adam Silver: "Trade demands are disheartening. That's an issue that needs to be addressed."

Adam Silver: "In part, we are the victims of our own success. We never used to have this coverage in the offseason ... the 24/7 nature creates new pressures."

Silver: "The one strong conviction I have is we should not have rules that can't be enforced."

This allows Kawhi to opt out in 2 years to get a bigger Max. 7-9 year players get 30% of the cap, but 10+ year players get 35% of the cap.

Potential good news for OKC. They hold first round picks from the Clippers out to 2026.

Paul George can also opt out in 2021 as well.
