Trade Scenario: Prince to OKC (From Hoops World)

61

Bill Ingram of Hoops World writes that Prince could be a good fit for the Oklahoma City Thunder. Ingram argues that Prince could provide a steady, veteran presence for the young team, and that he is a very low-risk, high-reward option because he only has one year remaining on his contract. The key to a potential Prince trade to the Thunder is what OKC would have to give up in return. GM Sam Presti has assembled an impressive group of young talent and it would seem unlikely that he'd want to de-rail that in any way. However, if Detroit was willing to settle for draft picks or a project like center B.J. Mullens, perhaps the Thunder would be willing to pull the trigger. Having Prince in the team's crunch time lineup would certainly help come playoff time. _________ I'm not convinced by Mullens at all...and unless they're giving us a 1st rounder for next season, I don't have any interest in this idea...or they could give us Ibaka.
