    Pretty crazy that some players like Westbrook have this reputation about them with the media that doesn’t carry through to the facts that the GMs and owners see consistently. Westbrook can be electric at times but most of the time he’s just a really inefficient basketball player who makes your team worse AND he’s one of the highest paid players in the league.

    However I understand why the media loves him, but I do expect fans to do their homework a little bit to see through the media love vs real on the court production. The fact is the Westbrook trade was a disaster and a lot of us knew it automatically. I’m fine with the trade and think Wall is a better player whose game will age better in his later years. Westbrook is going to be a disaster once his athleticism starts to go. Wall will still be a decent point guard after he loses a step.
