    What are you talking about. He already turned down a trade for Westbrook?

    New York should be all over Westbrook, they have the assets and a coach that's not scared to bark back at players. Westbrook has been unsuccessful because all of his coaches have been scared of him and thus do not critique his game, Fizdale went nose to nose with Mark Gasol. Plus Westbrook vs Durant at MSG twice a year for at least three years, Dolan can take his band on a world tour off the concessions

    Miami still has a whole bunch of future picks to offer.

    I’d like to edit the thread title and say Miami now! :)

    Well. I know way more about the raptors than you. And I know the Clippers offer could not be beat by the Raps. Soooooo

    I think this is set up for New York Knick’s to somehow trade for Westbrook. I know he makes no sense but it just seems right.

    Yeah I don’t disagree. Not too far fetched.
    But Toronto was a reflex claim. After thinking it over I would say likeliest is Miami, followed by Raps and Knicks maybe.

    Both Miami and Toronto have a contract to match or close that is expiring and play the same position (Dragic and Lowry). Miami just makes so much sense because of that plus Winslow as an asset plus I believe Riley would throw away future picks for stars. I know Jimmy and Westbrook aren’t the ultimate duo but in the East you’re almost guaranteed with those two you’re not going to have lottery picks next few years so who cares.

    Edit: don’t know much about Bam for the Heat. Does he have value? Heard his name throughout the season being alright

    He's got more hot sauces than a makeshift taco stand

    Might be one of the times a Championship team is totally dismantled within months after the Parade.

    I doubt he will.

    Prob leaked to woj, so that he doesn't look like a super star crazy asset peddler like our big guy here.

    Trading DDR was smart even if it opened up sore wounds.

    Imagine him doing the same thing right after the chip in order to desperately keep Kashi.

    Not people smart but tactically brilliant...

    Then he should have traded for Westbrook and George when he had a chance.

    Except if Kawhi was intent on trying to get to the Clippers, he never really had a chance.

    But the internet told him otherwise so he knows what’s factual. Even though the internet didn’t even tell him that much. The report said the Thunder were willing to explore trade talks with the Raps, which on its own doesn’t even make it true, yet somehow at least 5 geniuses in this thread have taken it on as “Ujiri turned down Westbrook”. @Nook and every other smart ass that made the exact same comment in this thread
    Edit: @ThatBoyNick @TheRealAllpro and more

    You have now decided that the reports of Miami getting Westbrook are more credible than Toronto.

    Depends I suppose. Although that may likely be the case.

    With all due respect, I don’t understand the premise of the thread. It seems somewhat all over the map, and the map includes Canada.
