The Oklahoma City Thunder may be the best team in the NBA, but that does not make them perfect. Actually, when you break them down they are pretty flawed. They are a jump shooting team. History has shown that teams that have been dependent on the jump shot have failed in the postseason. We can easily turn back the clock two years and see a young OKC team go cold in the NBA finals against LeBron James and the Miami Heat. With that being said, the Thunder need a big man. Kendrick Perkins doesn’t even belong in the NBA anymore. His 3.5 points and five rebounds per game are mediocre … at best. The next two centers on the team, Steven Adams and Hasheem Thabeet, average 3.5 and 1.8 points per game respectively. I don’t think the Thunder will be able to win a NBA title with any of those three protecting the rim. They need to make a small move and pick up a serviceable big man. Who are the Thunder’s two most tradeable pieces? Let’s take a look:
