    Holy crap, that is one expensive first round exit. (Thunder's payroll that is, not Grant's deal)

    I don't see them keeping Melo. He'll get bought out or stretch prov. That's just a gross luxury tax bill for a historically cheap owner.

    Lol they wouldn't pay the tax to keep the core of Durant Harden and Westbrook together, but a core of Westbrook George and Melo makes all the sense in the world?

    Melo isn't staying. OKC still looks formidable in my opinion.

    I'm happy that Jerami Grant hit pay dirt.

    A guy said on NBA TV that OKC will pay $310 million (including luxury tax) if they keep everybody after signing PG and Grant.

    Huge WIN offseason for OKC. They lock up PG long term. The resign Grant. Roberson will be healthy to start the season. And likely get rid of Melo.

    This is a West playoff team for many years to come.
