    That's because no GM in their right mind would deal for him ….

    Westbrook for KLove! Then trade Capela and Gordon for Beal! then get a somewhat rim protector in Noel Nerlins with OKC

    Even though this is a silly stupid post for fun, Cant trade Gordon till next offseason. League Rules. I wish people would stop even mentioning it.

    Keep Gordon and trade Westbrick for Love. We can get Love and another good piece for Westbrick.

    The Cavs want to unload a bad contract. I don’t think they will want an even worse contract in Westbrook, but keeping my fingers crossed

    IN: Kevin Love, Larry Nance Jr.

    OUT: Russell Westbrook

    Trade is successful, as per ESPN's trade machine. If only the Cavs were dumb enough to do this.

    Rivers / Harden / House / Love / Capela
    Clemons / Gordon / McLemore / Tucker / Nance Jr.

    That's a championship team.

    I think you're right but for the 8 minutes Harden sits, get ready for a ton of 30 foot covered Eric Gordon shots.

    It's weird but the Rockets actually do need a second fiddle drive & kicker, a poor man's Harden. But Russ ain't that guy.

    Neither team is dumb enough to do it because it would us Harden. I feel so bad for Morey. He's been playing a 15 year game of chess, only to let Harden and Tilman finish it for him. I can't keep watching Russell shoot 30 times a night while James gets doubled and shoots 11 times.

    I had a hard time enjoying the Raptors win because I know what I've seen from Westbrook, I have to see for 3 more years. The late double team defense actually works, the Rockets just got lucky that the role players came to play. It's so sad, we have $80,000,000 tied up into 2 guys and that defense makes us live or die by Mac and House. I'm willing to bet most nights the defense works when playing playoff teams.

    Damn shame we wasted so many assets for Westbrook, who barely even qualifies as a star at this point.

    If that trade was made we would still need to acquire a point guard that's just more disciplined with some star qualities than Harden.

    He sort of still is otherwise the record would be closer to 0.50.

    Tilman made it clear we won’t have younger talents, and MDA wouldn’t develop many.

    Rockets have no matching salary to trade for Kevin Love. Tilman did not approve salary ballast in Iman Shumpert. The End.
