How does that move put OKC over the top? They’re not pushing their chips in like that. And yes I do think MIN would take “just picks” if he were available. You’re talking about potentially unprecedented amount of first rounders. Unlike high post count, pick count matters.Quote:

If you don't think pairing him with KAT is a legit path to a future - especially given that they have a larger war chest than we do and so could match any number of picks we want to offer and still have some left over to keep building with - then I'm not really sure where you're mind is with OKC right now.
