The fire sale of Thunder assets continues. Will Westbrook be a member of the Heat by October?

Celtics need a 4 AND a 5 desperately. How much for Adams?

Montrez Harrell and Landry Shamet are both big pieces on the Clips you conveniently left out.

He looked washed last season

As of now I'm counting on a guy called Tacko and another called Time Lord. A washed Steven Adams sounds like an upgrade.

If I'm a GM I never trade for a rim running big. Those guys are out there for cheap.

I wouldn't say washed. He's just not worth that much in today's NBA.

16, 6, 2
9,2,2

but on the lakers i also left off

alex caruso who baiscally had the same stat line as shamet and danny green was almost the same as shamet

like i said, the rosters are very similar to each other. i think everyone is jumping on the clips simply because they got kwahi when every assumed it was the lakers

Shamet is much better than Caruso. He's also 10 years younger than Danny Green. Harrell was a bench player averaging those numbers. Him and Louis Williams' pick and roll offensive numbers were insane last year.

Kawhi is the best player in the league. Why shouldn't people jump on the Clips bandwagon?

That's what should make next season fun. Especially once Westbrook finds a new home. There's probably not going to be a consensus favorite, even if there is, that projection could easily be proven wrong.

The bottom line for me for me is I don't believe LeBron can be the two way superstar they need him to be anymore.

Not in the regular season. I think he has one or two postseason runs left in him.

I'm somewhat in this camp, but I like what they did getting Avery Bradley for his defense. Lebron's probably got some playoff moments left in him if the supporting cast plays well enough to get him there.

Probably the Knicks. Miami will only land him if Lowe is right and Russ has negative trade value. But even if he's right that he should have negative value, the Knicks are so desperate for a star they'll trade actual assets for him.

Can I get some acknowledgement of my Westbrook opinions being spot-on for all these years?

Refresh my memory, what are your Westbrook opinions?
