I like Westbrook, I like intensity he plays with, but guy just lay an egg. Half of his turnovers and shots are just poor BIQ I feel highschool player wouldnt commit.

He made some pretty stupid passes.

One he had Taj rolling to the hoop and only needed a simple lob towards the hoop but instead tried to thread the needle with a bounce pass. That one ended up behind Taj for a turnover and led to a 3 for Houston.

Great great player, but Westbrook often makes some boneheaded passes.

Good to see Gobert has no real damage with that knee. Hoping he can make it back and help the Jazz take out the Clips.

Yea He does the thing is I don't think he feels he makes bad passes I think he blames it on teammates ......he has a real bad attitude

Beverly is exactly what the bulls should be looking for at point. Great defense, has really worked on his 3 point shot, energizer, doesn't need the ball to be effective, and is also incredibly cheap.

Would love him, or the bulls just need to find the next Beverly.

I also wouldn't mind trying to sign Bradley next offseason. Love his defense, and I feel like he's improved his shooting since entering the league.

Paul George calling out his teammates AGAIN.

But much better player than Jimmy, and much better teammate, what you'll hear around here.

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

Paul George needs to have player on his team that is equally as talented as him.

Hopefully Chicago.

Bummer, but how does that make anything for sure?

It was reported even his wife told him to go to Chicago, and reported LA would be better for her career. Melo yes likes dat money, but he likes NY. A lot.

I read reports back then about La La wanting New York more than Melo. Maybe reports flipped flop back then

He's being guarded by scrubs tho. I still don't understand why James isn't guarding him. The Cavs don't have anything else who can guard him.
