Depends how important Barnes, Ezeli, Bogut, maybe Speights and more were to the chemistry.

here's a thought he could sign a 1 year deal with GS and go back to OKC this is THE only chance he will ever have to join GS with the way the contracts line up. it's take it or leave it. next year victor and westbrook will be FAs i believe he can go back to OKC that and i think he's doing all this becuase of westbrook in the first place
damn i was killing it last night

Everyone on Twitter saying Lakers need to trade for Westbrook now after Windhorst's report lol.

frick that. That's exactly the kind of short sighted thinking the Knicks had when they were after Carmelo.

Hell, I'd do it if I'm OKC.

I think the writing's on the wall. I think the two talked and KD got the impression that RW is gone after this season.

You're going to lose him for nothing, might as well try to fleece the Lakers for Ingram and whatever else they can get.

If they trade for Westbrook, they can offer him more money than if he gets to free agency. Clippers are in LA, too.

not being proactive is why the thunder just lost KD for nothing.

what is the point of keeping Westbrook. Even if you don't lose him westbrook has already proven he can't take them to the playoffs by himself.


trade him and get as many picks as possible for the 2017 draft which is very deep.

but i would not trade for him unless i was LA

the lakers don't have anything TO trade for him with they dont' really own a pick until like 2020 or something.


really OKC is fricked basically

the clippers don't have anything either. they aren't trading paul or griffin or jordan and the thunder don't want reddick. they have no draft picks worth a shite.

yeah, i've been harping on this. but is it really worth giving up russell and ingram? or sacrificing draft picks for forever?

the more i think about it, just wait a year. he's not stay in in okc after next season.

And what's the point in trading for him now? The time to acquire a player like Westbrook was before all of these major free agents made their decisions

Correct west coast ag.

Dream scenario is to get Westbrook next yr, boogie 2 yrs after. By that time GS and Cleveland gonna get older.

#17 baybay!

For us Laker fans that's all we got right now, dreams

It doesn't make sense for them to do it but they just signed Mozgof to $16m/year. I'd try my luck if I were OKC.

Roles within that team will certainly change.

Thompson now will see less shots, but given his pedigree he will likely understand.

still I don't see all of the Big 4 hitting All-NBA status next year...despite all being Top 3 for their positions.

A little late, but just thought I'd add: frick OKC for trying to use Katina to steal the Hornicans.
