The Westbrook thing is overdone. They traded for him. That is done. He sucked last year, but so did everything. I trade for Kyree might have worked, but losing two more first rounders was a lot to pay for might. Every other trade that has been discussed has been questionable at best and awful with the lost of so many future picks. All for one season. Maybe we see a different Russ this year. Let's hope. But the upset from fans over not doing a stupid trade is just sorry.

Westbrook didnt hurt us so much last year as did the loss of all the depth we had. We lost 2 centers who went to play 20mpg for teams that are trying to compete. Gasol too if he didnt retire could still be getting minutes as a backup. We lost a wing in Kuzma who plays over 30mpg for a team trying to compete, Kieff also is still getting minutes when healthy at a playoff team. Our entire guard rotation (KCP, playing 30mpg, Schröder and Caruso 28mpg, Matthews 20mpg, McLemore 20mpg, after they left). And look at the players that we got rid of during last season or after it. Look where they will play, how they will play, and if they will play at all.

I think everyone who is down on this trade should stay home when we have a parade in 2022.

Hey, I dont want to gloat.

But man even I was wrong.

I mentioned that he could cause us problem in the playoff.

Little did I know, that we wouldnt even sniff the playoff while he was here.

Good riddance.

Thank God he is on the Clippers now.

May they sign him a large extension.
