I don’t want Westbrook he needs to be the number 1

VanVleet is better than dude.

Oh it’s happening

Thibs hates shooting threes and everyone hates when Westbrook shoots them. Perfect match.

I wouldn't be mad at Russ in NY. He's never played for a coach as good as Thibs.
He failed as a youngin with a young KD, a young Harden, and who else? They'd have won a chip with a better coach if they didn't break up that core 3.
We know from experience Dantoni is a goof.
Get Russ in the east, get some shooters, defenders, and rebounders, and let Thibs coach...and we can't do some 2020 Miami shyt?

I just feel CP3 will pull a hammy at the podium during the press conference if we trade for him.

Russ and his contract could

EDIT: Troll tweet from a bucks fan...

 

[Ty-Fife]

I understand every other team, but Atlanta?

 

[Illuminatos]

Russell Westbrook?

These nikkas want to trade for a high usage, low iq player that can’t shoot on a bad contract? They must know something everyone else doesn’t.

U too caught up in the names bro.

Westbrook is really bad. He uses his non stop motor and athleticism to rack up box score stats at the expense of the team. He can’t shoot, he’s a turnover machine, he struggles to break down his man in the half court, he plays the defense y’all associate with LaMelo Ball.

He was absolutely embarrassing in this years playoffs. A brick, turnovers in the clutch, getting his shyt thrown across the gym constantly by LeBron, trash talking while down.

There’s a reason VanVleet had better analytics in things that count impact and winning than Westbrook despite a much less gaudy box score.

Need a Brooklyn Nets type of haul for that albatross of a contract and even then, I'm hesitant, because of that high salary on the Knicks books for the next couple of years.

A Westbrook acquisition might break me fam...I've been trying to write out an offseason road map for the coming week and each new rumor is making crazy. Imagine Rose comes in with all this flexibility and walks out the offseason with Russ and MKG.

Isaiah Stewart rumor is cool, that kinda motor always wins me over and I'm curious about his mobility defensively at the next level...not too optimistic or anything but curious.

Some recent news about teams seeking a third squad to make deals works does have me excited though.

Also, I know Tyrell Terry is getting a lot of love recently and I get it...but I feel like if there's a dude that's gonna be a bucket (albeit a different kind of scorer) that slips in the draft, it'll be Grant Riller out the gate doing numbers.
