    I feel strange.

    Maybe Clutchfans is right, and I must also join in the irrational Tilman hate threads every day.

    They have won.

    Russell plays with fire and he doesn't give a @#$#@. We don't have players like that since Ron Artest.

    More points. More rebounds. More steals. More speed. More assists. More intensity.

    God. How the **** are we supposed to sell this one?! Russell Westbrook is not and has never been a significant contributor to winning. Jesus Christ. It feels like Morey is intentionally trying to sabotage the team in order to get the boot so he can be hired by a franchise that will really let him push the reset button.

    They couldn't win in OKC with KD. What make this different? Morey sabotaging Rockets before he bails to Phoenix, Wizards or Knicks

    At this point in his career I feel Westbrook is willing to step back for Harden. He will just go get rebounds and drive to the rim which is kinda exactly what we needed.

    I love me some CP3 but come on man, this is a good trade!

    Westbrook's defense alone will disallow this from being a good trade.

    The Rockets will be good, but holy **** will they be worse.

    In my opinion this is far from a terrible trade. We gained some relative youth and got rid of Paul’s contract. Worst case is things don’t work out and we put Westbrook on the market. That is an asset that we can surely get value for if it were to come to that.

    OPPOSITE of relative youth. Westbrook's age is a joke compare to his drop off.

    He s declining at a faster ****ing rate than CP3.

    are you serious!!! we got the younger player in his prime for a older player who is clearly declining and is expected alot of money for the next 2 years (westbrook only has 1 more year than paul) and you wanted picks!!!!

    They should have traded Hardhead for picks.
