ORLY?
Westbrook now wants to stand around while Harden dribbles until there's 4 seconds left on the shot clock before chucking it?
Westbrook as a player is a big upgrade over Paul, and he fits into their double iso system quite well. Contracts are equally bad. This is a win for Houston, and OKC depending on how they can get out of the Paul deal.
But man, LAL, LAC, Portland, Denver, Utah, Houston, GS (they’ll still have Curry, Thompson and Draymond for the playoffs)... West is going to be a dogfight. No load management for Kawhi or LeBron.
Kawhi broke the NBA.
Dragic, J. Johnson, and Waiters for CP3 and both of Miami's 1st rounders OKC currently owns.
This is it for the OKC "big three" story. What ifs will never be enough for the Thunders...
Yeah, I love Russ but damn, two ball hogs on one team, can't see them succeeding much together. Paul got shipped out like an unwanted piece of trash, what's up with that?
Unbelievable value for OKCPaul George

If Westbrook and Harden can not hog the ball then Houston will be better. It’s huge they pulled this off with only moving picks and Paul.
Westbrook gets such a bad rep
How so? He's an otherworldy athlete who's quite mediocre at the game of basketball. It's ridiculous how badly Lillard clowned his ass in the playoffs this year.
???Great trade. This is why the Paul George Ordeal looks worse.
Westbrook being a California native would have welcomed a trade to the Clippers.
LA panicked and traded for George immediately instead have being patient. Kawhi would have waited and Westbrook would fit much better than PG.
