The rumors are circulating and I think it's nearly inevitable this offseason. The Thunder management has done a poor job managing the roster over the past several seasons.
We've been needing a 3rd scorer for a while now and the NBA as a whole has been trending towards small ball, but management took the roster in the opposite direction. All of the extra cap space was blown on the big man Kanter at a pay rate similar to Westbrook's at $16.5M~ ($51M guaranteed).
In my opinion we should have found an older big man at half the price to split time and help develop Adams. The extra money should have went to bringing in a SG better than Morrow to share the scoring load with Russ and KD.
