    I’ve been watching who the Thunder are projected to pick, so I was wondering: Does anyone really think the Thunder will pick 2 6′ 4″ SGs when Ekpe Udoh and Solomon Alabi are both available and projected to go a few spots later?

    The mock draft on this site is just set up by the potential on where each player will be picked. They don’t start factoring in team needs until it gets closer to the draft since teams are switching draft positions on a nightly basis.

    Considering how quickly this team has progressed now at 38-24 I think it would be a good idea to go after a david lee in free agency. He could be their post presence they need and get 15 and 12 for them next year. Who knows how big the market will be for lee again this year with all the great free agents available but if they can get him to a 2 or 3 year deal and still have money down the road for its top young players they could definitely be contenders along with la next year.
    Theyll definitely go with a big guy like alabi or sanders but it would be pretty crazy to see durant jeff green and stanley robinson playing together.

    okc doesnt need one rightnow. they are young and can just get better as a team and let there young bigs get better. they dont need to rush and overpay for a big guy

    I can see only see 2 or 3 getting pretty decent…and if they all reach their potential, we still need more than just a starting Forward and Center, and I’d rather have a true PF instead of Jeff Green (Although he has fit nicely). I

    all are very young so they arent even near there potenial. they arent in a rush.not as much as some fans are. they are young and getting better every year. jeff green is perfect for them at pf. he scores rebounds and defends as well as the average pf. this is a great reason fans dont get to be gm’s because they want everything now and arent that patient even when a teamis very young and are good and itwouldnt hurt them to make no moves and let the team just get better with experience

    …I think I’m retarded. I always talk before I think about it then I read it again and I’m always like what the crap was I thinkin…

    Yeah I’ve been patient ever since they came to OKC, and all we fans really see right now is a team with absolutely no big man. We don’t think about the developing players

    its cool alot of fans do that. you gotta understand ya’ll have a veruy very very good young team. thibnk how good they are now and they are young and a couple years from there prime. yeah a big man would help and they will get one if there is one to get during the summer but they will be fine if they dont get one either especially since big men dont come in and get career highs against them
