Willie did indeed goto the Clips! Maybe being with Blake will get him back to old form!

I think that will be a good thing for him as well. If he can somehow control his body language and attitude, the sky's the limit for him.
 
Im not sure how much I like Willie in LA, but he ll have Blake hopefully to keep him straight.
 
Now I will bow down to the person who can explain to me what and Who exactly the Thunder drafted or acquired this draft, i lost track early on..

They got Cole Aldrich. That's all that matters.
A great fit for them. The Sloth is coming to town.
 
I like the Aldrich pick, short of Cousins (who seems like he could be a big time risk to be a bust), there probably wasn't a better center. Saw some posters wanting Sanders or Whiteside. Don't think Sanders can play the 5, and Whiteside could take several years to develop to the point of being a starter on a good team (if he gets develops at all).

The ONLY thing Aldrich has to do is defend, and make it tougher on guys like Bynum and Gasol. Hopefully, he can do that.
 
Sanders fits OKC so much better than Aldrich.

I am going to press the "I Believe" button....but IMO Sanders and JAnderson would have been the perfect OKC draft (or some semblance of Anderson)
 
I think the guy they got from Germany Pleiss may be better than Cole Aldrich. I love the trade with the Clips to get a future first rounder for a backup PG in Bledsoe. I think Aldrich is a guy that can play right away. Be a good defender at the post after Kristic leaves since I bet he's gone after this. I think Pleiss is still a project but he can be the answer as a center in a couple years. I wish they would have gotten a solid guard in this draft. I'm not a huge fan of Peterson or the guy we got from Miami. But still a solid draft all around.

I think one of Cook or Peterson will be traded before the first game.
 
As far as the OU guys go. I was hoping that WW would go to a better team. I don't know if he'll ever be able to develop with the Clips.
 
So, the Thunder traded:

#18 Eric Bledsoe
#21 Craig Brackins
#26 Quincy Pondexter
#32 Dexter Pittman
#51 Magnum Rolle
Cash Considerations

Got Back:

#11 Cole Aldrich
#31 Tibor Pleiss
#57 Ryan Reid
Daequan Cook
Maurice Peterson
A Future First Round Pick (Clippers)
Cash Considerations


Did I miss anything?

Looks right to me
 
Getting the Clippers 1st round pick next year was key. So you get a guy that can start right away at your weakest position in Aldrich, two NBA vets that can score off the bench and the Clippers #1 pick next year. And a project big foreign center.
Overall, they did very well in addressing needs and building for the future.

Pick is protected, I believe.
