OKC is in real trouble trying to keep their core group together, according to
SI The Oklahoman:
"08:08 AM ET 07.02 | At the very least, it appears Scott Brooks will return to OKC, but keeping his players might be more difficult. The Thunder has secured the services of [Kevin Durant] and Russell Westbrook, and now comes time to corral James Harden and Serge Ibaka -- starting Sunday, with the window open until Halloween for contract extensions. But getting Harden and Ibaka signed will not be as easy as knocking on a door. More like solving a Rubik's Cube. To keep this core together, the Thunder is going to have to take some organizational risk, and Harden and Ibaka are going to have to sacrifice, perhaps greatly, and even that combination might not suffice. ... The numbers are staggering against the Thunder."
I could see a deal before the trade deadline a possibility if we want him. Not sure what it would be, though, given that they need lower-salaried players. Myers and Ewill + picks in 2014?
