AROUND the NBA:

OKC's defense is just stifling. 

OKC definitely needs a clear #2 on offense.  Thoughts on if JDub will develop into that, or will they need to bring one in?

I think JDub can get there and I'd worry about someone else stunting his growth.  He's still a puppy.  That said, I might take a swing at Giannis and center the trade around Chet + Salary Matching (Hartenstein, Dort, and Joe are the biggest money makers outside of SGA) + Picks. I guess it depends on how you view Chet, but I don't think there is enough balls to go around with both he and JDub trying to play second fiddle as SGA is going to get his touches.
