I just thought that you all should know that Russell Westbrook will be on Rome is Burning tomorrow, June 25th. The show starts at 3:30 cst on ESPN.

never heard of it....what is it about?

It's just a sports talk show on ESPN hosted by Jim Rome. Generally he'll have someone on for a few minutes and ask them a few quick question. Thanks for the heads up

He was just on. Said all the right things.

-Likes Harden and is good friends with him, thinks it would be a good fit.
-Rome asked Westbrook if the Thunder pick Rubio and Westbrook has to play the 2 what would you think? He said whatever i can do to help the team.

i saw this too, russ was real diplomatic about the questions. i get the feeling he'd be upset if presti ended up with rubio, though. even if it is better for the team.

Thats funny considered there are sources saying that Westbrook told Presti if he drafted Rubio he might as well trade him.

A lot of times, players know that it's better for them to just say the "right" thing on camera and take care of their displeasures behind closed doors. I think that it was the right way to handle it, although probably not as exciting as a big dispute
