I'm really curious to see what kind of contract Westbrook gets next. Personally I wouldn't want him on my team for free.

Everyone will be a trade asset in the coming days. The 2018 Cavs prediction turned out to be so on point.

Without a mentality change à la Melo, he's not getting another contract unless OKC wants to throw him a retirement tour

If Russ isn't traded this team isn't going anywhere.

Bet. Russ is like 80% of everyone in that statement. His scoring has declined to tragic levels.

Vogel really can't bring Russ back tonight. Play Dwight rest of the way.
Of course, as I say that Russ checks in.

Reaves is a hooper. Great effort from him

Best player on the Lakers tonight for sure. He should be starting. He should have been starting weeks ago.

Vogel is a jackass so he's definitely gonna lose minutes when Nunn comes back, instead of Bradley or THT, or Russ for that matter.

Russ can't have the ball in crunch time. Unacceptable, and now game over

That's the game! Another L.
Sad thing is they won 3 quarters tonight.

Don't know why they keep letting him do that, he should not be allowed to shoot down the stretch. He can take a layup/dunk at the most.

The sure sign of a team with low BBall IQ is consistently finishing quarters poorly.
1st quarter: -4 in the last 50 seconds
2nd quarter: -8 in the last 1:42
3rd quarter: -5 last 30 seconds
And that was the game. They have to change the rotations so that James is closing out quarters and not Westbrook though James was poor at the end of the second quarter.
Tried that, too, and got blocked by the rim.

Honestly Sacramento really attacked Bron on defense this game. He made some clutch swipedowns late but it wasnt a good defensive night for him. Cant count on him to play the 5 this long
