Yeah, Claxton and Rudy is a great combo... :D

Swain looks the part of a Thunder player. I'm glad he's not going there.

Rudy isn't going anywhere and we aren't trading back into the first round. I know......BOR-ING! But that's likely going to be how this night ends.

There’s no reason Rudy can’t slide over to the PF position next to Claxton.

Bennett Stirtz to Memphis does this make getting Ty Jerome possible or more possible?

Damn Thunder trading up for Stirtz? I really hate that I like that.

For just two second rounders. What is OKC going to do with all these players?!? They are on the clock next with #17!

[Edit: N/m -- it was a pick swap with OKC, too. ]
