    I bet Westbrook and Harden get along fine and make the playoffs

    Harden will be the closer for sure though which is the only flaw in Westbrooks game

    Westbrook’s shooting has become a pretty major flaw in his game though

    The more I think about this trade I just cannot believe they got any assets for Westbrook’s contract. Seems insane.

    Honestly I think it was less what it took to get Russ and maybe more what it took to be rid of Paul

    the only two contracts in the league worse than Westbrook are John Wall and CP3.

    Maybe OKC can fold Minny in and make this a 3-team trade, moving CP3 to Minnesota in exchange for Wiggins, if they're going full tank - they might as well kick the tires on Wiggins lol

    In return Minny gets a chance to pair KAT with a competent guard

    This off season is fucking insane

    Easily the craziest offseason ever. Pretty much every single top like 25 player has either moved, paired up, been divorced, or otherwise are looking to next season as their chance

    It's what, like, Jokic and KAT (who is super fucking pissed Dlo went to the Warriors I'm sure) who haven't had their situations radically change? I guess Beal isn't moving but I wouldn't put money that OKC or someone loaded with picks doesn't pull the trigger on that

    I have a sneaking suspicion Portland really wants to trade for KLove or a stretch big like him but I dunno if Love still counts as a gamechanger

    I don't think Dame wants to go anywhere. Or at least he's said he doesn't.

  • DirtyboyDirtyboy Registered User regular
    Dame's not going anywhere.
    Lillard signed a four-year supermax extension — reportedly worth $196 million — that will keep the face of the franchise under contract through the 2023-24 season, with a player option for 2024-25.

    “I think we’ve built something special,” Lillard said during a press conference Saturday in Las Vegas. “It’s real genuine. The environment we’ve created is something I’ve been a part of and something I want to continue to be a part of.”

    The caveat there is that Paul George signed an extension and said he wanted to stay in OKC, but then he got an offer he couldn't refuse. I'm not saying Dame is going to do that, since the situation isn't really the same, but there's always time to change his mind. I don't think there's a team that has the pieces and the motivation to go after him right now, though

    The Cavs would love this.

    They have probably been trying to trade him since camp opened last year and they confirmed that team is in fact a pile of turds without Lebron.

    The fact that they haven’t yet I think speaks to Love’s value vs his contract- Love is not good.

    Love got hurt early this past year making him untradeable to any contender. If healthy he's not a bad fit for anyone that wants a stretch 4 that's still good for 10 rebounds a game. His contract isn't that bad in this cba either

    grayson allen managed to get 2 flagrants in 8 seconds of summer league basketball. truly an amazing accomplishment.

    why on earth is he still allowed in the league.
