Sam Presti may just be getting warmed up.

Apparently, OKC is talking with Indiana, about trading the recently acquired #18 pick, along with the #21 and Eric Maynor for Indiana's #10.

Indiana would have to send some payroll to OKC to make the numbers work, however.

Who does Presti want @ #10, I wonder?  I would imagine he's targeting a center, but on the other hand all the lottery big men are projected to be gone by pick #7.

Maybe he's looking to get the #10 so he can then package that with one of his players in order to get an even higher (top 5?) pick.

#10 + Jeff Green for #5?  The Thunder could get DeMarcus Cousins with that pick.

Man, the Thunder would be scary with Westbrook, Harden, Durant, Ibaka, and Cousins.
Never forget the Champs of '08, or the gutsy warriors of '10.

Ed Davis or Ekpe Udoh would be good upgrades over Jeff Green.

Cole Aldrich may be an interesting name for Oklahoma. A little surprising to see them give up so much to get him though.

Except Mark Spears, possibly the source of the rumor, is now casting doubt on it.

NBA sources tell Y! possible OKC-Indy trade was talked about but doubtful. "Indy going down the line looking for a young guard," one source says.
