They are each in the top three in luxury tax for the coming season. They both think they are legit threats to the Warriors.

For me, its the Thunder. George is younger than Paul and will be a more useful player longer. I also think you can keep Grant on the floor more than Anderson, especially in the playoffs. Two downsides: 1) Adams is getting paid way more than Capella, and 2) Gordon is a more useful and proven player than Schoeder.

I'm curious what the board thinks.

I'd say Roberson is more of the Thunder's core than Schroeder or Grant.  Westbrook and Schroeder on the court together doesn't seem like a good fit.  For the Rockets, I doubt Anderson is over Melo. 

Looking at this, I'd say neither are threats to GSW if they are healthy.  I'd also say that we're the second best team in the league if we're healthy.  If I had to choose, I'd say Rockets over OKC.
