I appreciate that young mcmokken, you delicious little man you!

Make no mistake, I am an unorthodox and insane monster, but I have a good heart!

I am an emotional wreck, unstable, hysterical, and liable to snap at any given moment without provokation.

This, coupled with love, is what I bring to the table. This is a non-negotiable package deal when you get KD_Stan on your board. Love & insanity, thy name is KD_Stan.

Take it or leave it.

back to the topic
I dont think we should trade Westbrook this summer.
He has all the up sides you want from a rookie pg, now he needs some seasoning.
We are not going to get a shot at the championship next season anyways, why not let him learn how to play while the team gets more mature. Then next summer we will see what we do with him.

If we trade Westbrook this summer, I believe we will all regret 3 years later.

No reason at all to trade him. His improvement (in my eyes) has been consistently evident in several areas, and that is on top of a very impressive set of base-abilities.

no team is going to win with Westbrook leading.
but on this team he is the third best player, Durant would be leading this team to wins when he returns.

Now or ever?
He's damn good for a rookie, if he improves he could lead a team to wins.

Do you mean leading as the primary scoring option, or leading as in a starting point guard in this league? If the former, probably... the latter, come on!

I can't believe so many of you have come to these conclusions 3/4 of the way through the kids rookie year. Look at how much Felton in Carolina has improved as a point this year. It's the most difficult position, Westbrook's in transition to the position, and he's incredibly young! Give him time.
