OKC deals: Jeff Green and Eric Maynor
Kings deal: Jason Thompson and Omri Casspi
Why for the Kings - I think both players start for us. Sure we lose Casspi, but I think Green is better. Maynor would be a great fit next to Tyreke.
Why for OKC - I don't think they want to pay Green the big bucks ths off-season and taking a flier on Thompson's size and fit might be worth it. Casspi is probably better suited off the bench and has a lot of value here to replace some of the production of Green for OKC.
Kings new roster:
C: Dalembert, Cousins, Whiteside
PF: Landry, Jackson
SF: Green, Greene, Wright
SG: Evans, Garcia, Head
PG: Maynor, Beno, Jeter
