Yeah, there are no facts in this post. Just pure hearsay. I will laugh my ass off if Sharpe goes past the OKC (#12) pick this Thursday.
OK City wants to move up to 4 or 7 with Dort and 12 to get Sharpe or Ivey. Presti knows what he's doing.
Sharpe knows what's he's doing, no interest in San Antonio or Sacramento. Spurs are one of the least talented teams in the league. He mentioned he would like to play with SGA in OK City.
Sharpe wants to go to OK City with those young up and coming stars(Giddey, SGA, Dort(may be moved in a trade up) and hopefully J Smith or Ivey) not teams like San Antonio and Sacramento.

I am not so sure the Spurs will deal both Doug and Richardson prior to the trade deadline because that would be a full tank move which this FO has yet to do. One of them will be gone by the mid season deadline but not both. They probably deal Richardson for assets and keep paying Doug.
These "University" guys and their 4K followers don't know more than you and me. They just read the same as we do then play the insiders on Twitter. I'm hearing whispers too.
I’m pretty sure they’ll move McD if they get just about any offer. Also, don’t forget there may be free agents in positions of need and/or draftees.
The weirdest narrative emerging from fans in this draft is this notion that players (Chet, Sharpe) are forcing their way to OKC. Oklahoma City. Forcing their way there to play with their wealth of talent. And live in Oklahoma City.
The second most bizarre narrative among casual fans is that OKC has a wealth of talent.
wth thinks okc has a "wealth" of talent
lol, wealth may be a strong word, but it's downright stupid to think they are not better positioned than we are, given the young talent they have now is equal to ours at worst, and they have 8 gazillion picks and swaps over the next 5 gazillion years.
So while they aren't the 2015 Warriors, they are most definitely no bums with SGA, Giddey, Poku, & Dort, which at worst could potentially each garner them a 1st round pick back in the right situation. Much more for SGA.
I think we're like, or closer to .500 against them than we should be over the last 3 years when ostensibly we should have been crushing them when they have been amongst the worst teams in the league over that span. Now they're about to add two picks inside the top 12. If they go Chet, they'll have a stout defensive presence. Or if Smith and Banchero, a stout offensive pairing to go with the passing of Giddey and scoring of SGA. They're about to be a whole bunch better in 4 days, amost assuredly. Whereas we have lots of question marks about our draft.

I did not know that about haliburton till you mentioned it. Makes the trade look that much worse they did last year.
They are more talented than the spurs.
You have to remember, can't-miss-prospect and future all-time GOAT, Sharpe reminds rascal of Dr. J... so... you know, or something.
Don't sleep on what Presti will pull off in this draft.
He can come away with two top ten picks and he's targeting athleticism Ivey or Sharpe along with what he does with the number 2 pick adding that to SAG and Giddey (a better backcourt than what the Spurs have).
That's what's being rumored similar to any rumors you hear that the Spurs may be doing that you are commenting on and buying into.
I really hope Timvp is a paid informant and all this Caleb Houstan/Max Christie talk is a smokescreen to distract other bloggers and teams somehow. Sigh.
You'd be surprised. I was getting into it with some Pels fans about how incredible the Thunder roster is and how close they are to ruling the west. I see an incoherent roster with pieces that don't fit together and no direction. Also people seem to think Luguentz Dort is this phenomenal, peerless talent.
OKC looks rudderless.

I don't get the okc love either.... they have one real player on that team and another who might turn into a good player....from a draft pick perspective they're loaded but that hasn't manifested itself on the court yet...
Pels look better than the Spurs.
No they don't...they have more assets in draft capital and they may look better after this draft but today they don't look as good..
Sharpe makes shots at 18 like Dr. J with his hang time.
At 19 he has a better vertical than Jordan so the athleticism and potential super star upside is there.
im definitely not going to argue the spurs aren't falling behind. They need a elite level talent to pair with murray or this treadmill end of the lottery bs will continue
Pels fans were talking about OKC. We were talking about the Thunder.
You must have been sleeping during the play in game.
They beat the Spurs with Zion not playing and now even have a pick ahead of the Spurs and might snatch Mathurin right before the Spurs.

Okc was in the play in game?
Giddey needs shooters and the team has no shooters. If they pick Holmgren they need some beef to help him down low. They have no beef, just that awful sorhooting twig they already have. If they draft Sharpe or actually trade up for him... Jesus that team is a mess.
The only reason OKC didn't have an equal record with SA is because they chose to lose, not because they had a big talent deficit with SA. If they had played horford, SGA, Dort, Giddey, etc when they could have the last 2 years.
Spurs and OKC had near identical winning percentages in 20-21 in games where SGA played
