    What’s the difference between this Westbrook and 2017 besides age.

    he’s gone from a below average 3 point shooter to the worst volume shooter of all time

    he has a shot at the 8th seed and that entirely depends on who else is on the team he is on

    after Boston, Brooklyn, Milwaukee, Philly and Miami, it’s a jumble of teams that can flex one way or the other. A Westbrook can be the difference between the 6 seed and out for many of those teams.

    huh. Toronto will still be there. Indy has the same team as a year ago. theyll be in the bottom half of the playoffs

    he's going to none of those teams

    I listed the nets (Brooklyn).

    Meh on the Pacers...they are also at a turning point, like Toronto.

    they will be at the bottom half. Don’t disagree.

    Assuming his sources are legit and Kawhi really wants Westbrook that badly, a swap of PG for Westbrook would be amazing for us.

    0 chance that happens though.

    Three team deal. They want to form a trio of Russ, PG and KL

    If it does happen to have validity and that's a big if, all of a sudden the rockets would have a ton of leverage in a Westbrook deal at least.

    I believe they would try to form a big 3. No clue how that happens but we better get a HAUL if they want Russ that bad.

    I don't know if/how legit this guy is, but rumors about Kawhi asking for a pg have been out there from some time, and apparently the Clippers were trying to get CP3 so...who knows, mix that with the rumors about the lockeroom being not exactly happy with George (who is also expiring).

    The Clippers are definitely not having a great offseason so far, that's for sure.

    Im going to assume random Twitter sauces are ass until proven otherwise

    That being said, a Bev/Lou/Zubac package probably blows away any other package we could get for Russ, those players are worth about 2 first and a couple of seconds if sold off individually.

    If true then the Clippers are in trouble. They have no draft capital to offer and I doubt the Rockets are interested in bringing Bev and Lou back.

    somebody call Sam Presti, he’s known to pull some nasty trades here and there.

    Lou and Bev will probably go to a third team that can satisfy the Rockets needs
