re: Westbrook signs 5yr/$205mil deal with OKC. Highest Paid Player in NBA History.

oladipo/mcdermott/sabonis/kanter or george and melo

kanter's contract is a HUGE albatross and he's not that great.

The goal for OKC was two things:
1. not lose another superstar
2. try to keep george

whatever you say, mcdermott and kanter were not going to keep george. Melo might be able to.


But yes, lets blame westbrook for staying with a team and not ring chase when he's in his prime. He can never go down as one of the greatest, because he's simply not. He could very well go ring chase, but he's choosing not to and try to win with this core of him-george-melo and whoever else presti might be able to get.
