I think Miami and Detroit are atop the list

A perfect way to cap this Knicks turbulent offseason

I think the thunder will have a harder time getting rid of the Steve Adams contract than Russ.

No doubt. If the Knicks had not rushed to give too many contracts to whatever players that they can't trade right away, they'd have Westbrook already.

Pistons are rumored as well. Makes sense with their roster since they are basically in no man's land.


The funny part about the Pistons or Knicks is that they'd still be in no man's land with Russ.

The Heat could at least hope Russ and Butler get them somewhere.

Pistons have Blake Griffin. Adding Russ would definitely improve their team and prob be top 5 in the east next season

It definitely makes them a much more interesting team.

i really do feel bad for the team that gives up valuable assets for westbrook.


I could see orlando trying to make a move for him

They will get a decent young player and a protected first or something I’m guessing depending on how bad the money is they need to take back

Like with Detroit I could see Reggie Jackson (maybe sent to third team if there’s still bad blood there) Snell Galloway Luke Kennard and a lotto protected first or something

I would imagine they would have to get rid of Drummond?

Maybe they can send Reggie Jackson back to OKC so he can show them he truly is better than Russ like he said

They should hold Adams if the market is that bad for him. He’s a good player and seems like a great dude just paid way too much for a paint bound center in today’s NBA

Was playing around on espn, I think Detroit would have trouble making the cap space work unless they shipped Drummond out.

I still don’t see a wing on that team, but if they can swing Westbrook/Griffin/Drummond that is an entertaining and competitive team in the east.

I really doubt any Laker fan thought that. After Kawhi, the Lakers would have been dropping vet minimums.

Green even made it pretty clear he'd go to Dallas if Kawhi took the Laker money and otherwise would go to the Lakers.

The Clips have done very well this offseason. Be happy with that and leave the Lakers complex alone.
