i don't like that trade for either team
westbrook and harden are a super terrible fit. morey is overrated.
and okc gets picks i guess but they already have a shitload of picks. i guess they think they can offload paul? but that's still not a great contract. otherwise paul is right back to his new orleans days except with a worse team around him in a worse market? hate to see it.
the league was robbed of jimmy and ynb which would've been fun to see miami elevated a bit.

Harden was traded specifically because they didn't see a role for him as a heavy usage guy because they had Russ and they didn't want to pay him to be a sixth man.
yeah it's gonna be a weird fit
I'd like to believe they wouldn't fued since they go way back together but we shall see.
They also didn't want to play the luxury tax. Also I'm sure harden would love to not be the primary guy after the last 2 seasons
Congrats on the Harden/Westbrook combo.
Two MVPs at their peak (?).
I think this was the prospective trade that Simmons and House identified as a rare losing trade for both teams on the most recent BS podcast. I agree.
I thought this was a fake Woj post. CP0 must be raging right now. Don't see how he gets out of OKC.
This is a bad move by Morey even without the context of the picks. Maybe the Rockets are more consistently good because of Westbrook's health, but he's a bad shooter that wants to shoot more than anybody and that will actively take away from the Rockets efficiency.
But who knows I guess? I think it's stupid.

I predict a crazy season incoming that will help lakers lift that trophy. He said he has been working his ass off every day. I have lost 8 pounds in a week just eating and working out. So him losing the weight isn't crazy to me.thin boogie
isn't Westbrook the antithesis of moreyball? lol
he's still under contract since he signed that max, he can ask but it's a fuck ton of money and not sure OKC are willing to let him go for free
having either of those guys off-ball at all kinda robs them of what even makes them valuable which is their penetrative ability and iso scoring. it's a bad and dumb fit.
harden would be the better off-ball guy, because he can hit 3s, but you're gonna ask the franchise guy to give up what makes that team work and let russ be the alpha guy?
nahhhh... morey is desperate and a liar. cp gave up a lot of money to go there too

I think everyone can agree that Houston needed less three point shooting and the key was getting a ball dominant guard to stat hog.
Top three teams last post season (and don't lie, you guys all had the Celtics up there), plus the reigning champs, are all looking like they're going to miss their own conference finals this year.

Can he take a discount and get a 30 million dollar paycheck from space jam
He can, but he'd have to give up a shit ton of money because OKC is not gonna pay him and no one has the space to give him any significant deal.
He would have to give up a lot of that money to make it worth OKC's while. Not really sure how this ultimately plays out on that end. Maybe Riley trades for him?
Morey has never cared about chemistry, the guy signed Dwight Howard for crying out loud
Nope. Morey believes in acquiring superstar level talent above all else. He believes in getting the talent together first and then making it work.
