The Thunder have reportedly expressed interest in acquiring Wilson Chandler, Josh Smith (China), Derrick Williams and Carmelo Anthony. Sam Amico on Twitter The Scoop:Chandler could probably be had if OKC can put together the right package, and they could sign the recently waived Williams, or sign Smith away from his CBA team, but a Melo deal coming to fruition seems insanely unlikely. Williams and Smith likely wouldn't have much value playing for the Thunder, and Chandler would lose a lot of luster playing next to ball-dominant Russell Westbrook.

| Trans. May 14 12:23 ET Houston faced playoff elimination five years ago on Thursday, entering the Staples Center in Los Angeles trailing the Clippers 3–2 in the Western Conference semifinals. Down 12 with less than eight minutes to play, the Rockets' outlook was bleak, especially against Los Angeles' Big 3 of Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan. Josh Smith wasn't worried.

| Trans. May 11 4:03 ET No player symbolizes Joe Dumars’ career as a basketball executive more than Josh Smith. Smith figured prominently into Dumars’ greatest triumph, the 2004 NBA Championship, and was also the centerpiece free agent acquisition in the supersized with super-limited range lineup experiment that proved to be Dumars’ final ignoble act running the Detroit Pistons.
