Hayward to Houston, Westbrook to Knicks - AN IDEA! No Heart attacks D.W.C.

Is "rate' a brand new slang?  Never heard it until this thread.

Agree Okongwu won't be there at 8.  Otherwise seems like a good deal. (Would be a great deal if Okongwu were there).

But as someone posted there is the opt in/out issue above...

1. If the Knicks are so inclined, then I would offer them Kemba. Westbrook is more of just about everything, of course, but quite a bit of of it isn't good. Kemba would be a better fit for this type of strategy. That trade has been suggested multiple times and would be simpler.

2. Okongwu won't likely be around at #8. Hayes or Halliburton might.

Not sure if they view Kemba as highly as Westbrook.

But Kemba for Frank and #8 (Hayes or Hali) I would do no questions asked. Still have a large TPE to nab Wood as the starting PF, smallball Center.

Smart/Hayes
Brown/Romeo
Tatum/
Wood/GrantW
Theis/Timelord

I think Okongwu will be there, if for some reason he isnt, Hayes or Haliburton will be.

IMO I do not see Chicago, Atlanta or Cleveland taking a bigman.

Detroit is a Maybe, if they know they are losing Wood they might, but I believe they target a Point.

1-Ball or Edwards
2-Deni (multi positional, good high character guy, defender)
3-Wiseman (best bigman in draft? maybe?)
4-Ball or Edwards (scoring on the wing)
5-Toppin (hometown guy, exciting player)
6-Okoro (need wing Defense)
7- Haliburton or Hayes (point)

8 - 1 of Okongwu, Haliburton or Hayes
I would be torn as to who to take. I probably go with Okongwu although Hayes might be the best player in the draft in 3 years time.
