OKC still would have no shot

No to Westbrook. Couldn’t be further off from who we need at this stage. Go get someone 26 and under and I’d be on board

It got the Clippers what they wanted so it's hard to argue against, but god DAMN that could go so horribly wrong. Wow, wow, WOW.

It’s probably gonna be hated by a lot of people but I feel we should and most likely we will target Russ.

He fits the exact type of player Perry & Fiz are looking for.

His personality is made for NY too.

Now of course he’s a losing player, his low efficiency, low iq & imo he’s declining a bit athletically from what I saw last season...but he fits what’s FO would want.

I think we’re gonna go after him by the trade deadline to keep it 100.

Russ puts a hard cap on that team. They weren't getting anywhere near the finals over teams like Utah, Lakers, or even GSW with a healthy Klay.

Definitely a wow return for okc. For the clippers, they probably looked at it like that was the cost for both Kawhi and PG. Couldn’t get one without the other.

PG13 would leave OKC for free.

I hope the Knicks don’t try to acquire Russ, that would be horrible...his chucking and poor decision making would make my eyes bleed

trading for Russ wouldn’t be a splash, it would be a huge mistake...they have to know that

I’d much rather wait for the eventual Harden trade request if we’re looking to trade for an actual superstar
