Trade Analysis

Oklahoma City received 2015 second round pick (if this pick is not conveyed from 76ers to Celtics from previous trade, protected top 55 in 2015) (not exercised); trade exception and sent Hasheem Thabeet; cash considerations. 76ers generated the clearly stronger realized package. The grading is retrospective: named draft selections are evaluated by what they became, while unknown or still-protected picks are kept conservative. Later unrelated transactions are not credited as if they were guaranteed at the time of this deal. For a lower-profile transaction, the grade stays conservative and focuses on durable rotation value, pick conversion and the actual cost paid.
