Sooooo.... who trades for Westbrook now?

[tnapucco]

I was thinking the same thing but how many picks does Miami have left?

Even more prescient question...how many more can OKC hold?

Don't know if Miami is really interested on Westbrook, but definitely OKC got all these picks they can't handle as to use some of them and move Westbrook...

No way OKC gets a deal for Westbrook and wins from it! ...No way! ...OKC will be lucky to avoid an (expiring) bad contract included...

Presti got burned bad enough on KD, I would hope he learned SOMETHING from it.

You said OKC would dump Paul George to get under the tax. That is not what happened at all. they wanted to keep both stars.

They traded George because he demanded a trade and they were able to leverage a huge return from LAC.

Rumors saying Presti offered PG/RW package.

PG got wind and said deal me now.

So...he may be right to some degree.

Probably the Pistons (sigh). Send Blake home for RE straight up. Reggie loved playing behind Russ, what could go wrong?

 

[LogicMan]

So many ways to go with this. OKC could instead flip all these assets for someone to pair with Westbrook.

IMO okc is fine because they were not structured to win with those two

That ain't happening... OKC has another 10M to save as to go below the lux tax threshold and to do this, they need to move Westbrook and save at least 5-7M from his contract out of the values that will be received in return...

Jimmy Butler + Russell Westbrook in a wide open East with Durant out of commission. Omg omg omg.

It could get a top 4 seed maybe, that isnt winning shit though

New York Knicks - They should trade for him and it would be a smart move for them

 

[True Lakers Fan]

Then they could trade for James Harden and agree to take Chris Paul - Houston winds up being a lottery team rebuilding and New York has a chance at the playoffs.

If the Wolves trade for Westbrook I become a Jazz fan.

Hopefully this sea change will wake HERO BALL GUY up.

FUCK your triple doubles.
FUCK everyone backing off rebounds so you can get yours.
FUCK your over-the-top theatrics whenever you do your job successfully.
FUCK your overall attitude.
FUCK your fashion show.

Take your talents to Miami.

His fashion sense definitely better suited for South Beach than Oklahoma

Butler + Westbrook <<<<<<<< Sixers and Bucks, and << Celtics

 

[GNG]

OKC on a rebuilt and avoiding lux tax this season (as I've predicted long ago)... They've got their future PG on SG Alexander... who buys Westbrook now and what he gives in return?

The Bucks???

 

[GNG]

Lol at Middleton being the 2nd 'star'.

Middleton is darn good in my opinion.

geeze, even HE sees the handwriting on the wall...

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Whiteside + Dragic for Westbrook + 2 picks (returned) should do it... Still I think Miami should pass... Are they trying to become the "OKC of the East" or what?

I def think we should include Whiteside in any future trade if Portland allows it.
