Isaac Okoro

And reportedly, there are three Chicago Bulls players that the Thunder could be interested in.

That's Jalen Smith, Norman Powell, and Isaac Okoro.

All three could potentially help the Oklahoma City Thunder in different ways.

On today's episode, I want to talk about what we should be asking if we even entertain the offers for those players.

Yes, they have a Daymar there.

They still got Isaiah Harden signed, but Chet, he's just different, and he allowed to pull bigs away from the rim, which allowed the Thunder to rebound at a better level.

Because the Thunder have championship aspirations, people are asking, Are they going to use all their assets to try to find talent and players that can help them now? Now, Bleacher Nation did propose Norman Powell and Isaac Okoro.

as possible fits.

He just doesn't get the rebound.

Jalen Smith tips it to himself over him, gets it to Josh Giddey in the paint, and then no one's guarding Isaac Okoro.

And this is back-to-back possessions,

by the way.

I don't know if you said that.

Back-to-back possessions, yes.

Right? It's just a lack of awareness, a lack of communication, because Nimi's guarding Isaac Okoro so he can help in the paint, right? Sorry, Jalen Smith.

Tatum's guarding Isaac Okoro.

I think Okunwu might have been six.

And you could do, like, I don't know, Kenrich Williams and Topich or something like that for Isaac Okoro, who we know can defend well.

Yeah, he's a good defender.

He's not shot the ball well at all this year, but I think he's going to be more like what he's always been in his career.

Product and prices may vary by state.

Isaac Okoro reportedly could be a player that the Oklahoma City Thunder look to acquire as you add some more depth that they're missing with all the injuries.

We're going to talk about it all and more and what that means for the Chicago Bulls as well as tonight's game, a revenge game against Boston.

We'll get into all that and more right after this.

Of course, Jalen Smith's name was mentioned as always.

We know he's involved in everything.

But Isaac Okoro, surprisingly enough, is one that was mentioned that the Thunder could take a look at.

His defensive versatility, the flexibility, they could appreciate that.

He went 1 of 9 from the field, 1 of 7 from 3.

He picked up a cheap foul on Okoro, which was stupid.

I don't want to go into too many details about it, but he had a bad game.

And Mike Brown more or less benched him in the second half.

I think that the Bucs are going to wind up keeping Hawkins and look to extend them.

And one other name that I was just kind of looking out there, but these defensive minded wings, a guy that could maybe fit OKC system as a three and D type guy, maybe somebody like Isaac Okoro from the Chicago Bulls, because we don't really know what his role looks like with them.

And we know that they're going to be sellers at the trade deadline.

Maybe the Thunder could wind up getting him for a cheap price and he could wind up turning out to be a really good player for them.

But I do think this is that the Bulls keep prioritizing your actual meaningful development.

Chicago's won through four in his first five games there are real problems with this team there are real shortcomings with this team but this team is making progress and specifically our young players are making progress you've seen it even with Modest of course with Caleb no S&A is getting meaningful minutes Leonard Miller stepping up for the Chicago Bulls team I would like to see more of Daylon Swain and Jalen Sellers especially with Isaac Okoro and Buddy Hill playing like ass anyway right like You can play some of those guys a little bit more because people see it.

I know people came into the season thinking, oh, the Bulls can win 40 games.

Like I've talked to some of you guys about that.
