OKC is decimated...

[coffee425]

not to be a dead drum....
but OKC finished their game tonight with 6 healthy players. KD, Russ, Reggie, and PG3 are all hurt. Of course i know they'll all get healthy just fine... but perhaps now is a good time to deal with them when they're at their most desperate for depth in case of future recurring injuries this season?

I'd think they'd be interested in someone like Green, but they don't really have anything to give up for him. I'd really only want Jackson or Adams, and we're not getting Adams and Jackson would be redundant.  The best they could probably do is Perkins and a future first.

the GM and owners are able to see past the next few months. they know they wont replace their talent with equal talent in trades. so why trade to pick up another 6 to 8 wins but diminish your team come play off time?

they will probably hang on to what they have, let everyone heal, and prepare for the playoffs. so what if they are the number 7 or 8 seed? when healthy they will be a terror in the playoffs.

they are smart enough to hold tight to current talent and wait.

This, plus there's a hardship exception that they can apply for (and I believe they already have, though I've found nothing conclusive on that end) to add emergency depth.
