what if the Thunder traded Westbrook instead of Harden?

Blocking shots aint defense breh, Ibaka aint intimidating nobody, although he's improved, he wasnt worth losing a MVP candidate, for a 13 and 7 player:stopitslime:


And its pretty easy to get a couple of fill in pieces and win a title like Miami did when you have three legit all stars

:snoop:

so defending the Rim is not defense... :dwillhuh:

westbrook is better den harden
so they wouldnt be better off...


if westbrook went to houston hed be avging like 30+ points a game and 8 assists
why would he average more because he went to houston :wtf: he already takes the most shots on his team.

It's a better fit for both teams. Celtics need more of a scoring PG like westbrook, thunder need more of a distributor for KD and Harden

they'd be a better team. They could've moved Westbrick for a pass-first PG(and maybe another bench player). Harden was an all star they had coming off the bench, that's a rare find.

Just because you block shots dont mean your a defensive stopper, he's a liability for always jumping, and in this big man deficient league he still a little big man

this is better.. but defending the rim is the second best defense u can do next to stealing/forcing turnovers

keeping Ibaka is the right choice.. a team cant survive on three SG (yeah i called KG a SG :heh:)

You damn sure cant survive with a head case playing PG, they needed harden to smother some of Westbrooks fire and keep the ball out his hands. No playoff series is being won cause no fukking Ibaka, I rather have a :flabbynsick: Marion or KG than Serg truthfully

There was times when Scott would put Harden as PG and he would work the floor and set plays great plus he's a scorer so this could have worked.

But :ehh: OKC still working out fine
