Thunder Want Beal; Harden Available

[Black]

Apparently the Thunder are trying to move all the way up to get Beal, meaning Harden is definitely available.

Beal told ESPN.com Wednesday that Oklahoma City general manager Sam Presti told him during an interview in Chicago that he was interested in trying to move up to draft him. The Thunder's first-round pick isn't until No. 28.

To get Beal, the Thunder would undoubtedly have to move James Harden, the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year.

Charlotte also just acquired a shooting guard in Ben Gordon in a deal with Detroit, which could mean they may not need to make a move for another veteran wing.

Do you consider Henderson and #2 for Harden and #28? Or stay put, and let Washington potentially land Harden to pair with Wall?

This is going to be very interesting.

I posted it in another thread but IDK, maybe but not without a guarantee that he resign. If not we lose him, lost Hendo and we are left with BG.

no he wouldn't resign

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't we be able to match any offer he receives if we trade for him?

It seems with all these teams hot over Beal that we should draft Beal. Then we will hold the goods and people have to deal with us. If no one meets what we want then we just have the guy that seems to be the hottest outside of Davis. We can move Henderson if need be IMO.

I agree. I mentioned this on here the other day. Beal is a hot commodity... the Cats should draft him and watch that phone blow UP during the entire draft. Honestly, anyone on that Bobcats roster (except Biyombo) can go if the deals are right.

i kind of agree, if most other teams think Beal is the main man behind Davis then we should draft him

Harden will not renew his contract here. It´s stupid give our pick #2 for enjoy Harden two years here.

Correct for this offseason, but next offseason he could walk away if he wanted, it would/could be a one year rental

Only wait i'd trade for Harden is if he signs a long term deal before the trade is done
