I don't like giving up on first round picks so easily.  Troy Brown deserves playing time and a chance to shine.  He has only been in the league two years.  What's the alternative, cut him and watch him shine elsewhere?  We don't have anyone better anyway.

Pllleeeease tell me the Rockets are giving us more than just Westbrook.  At least a 2nd rounder or Christian Wood or something.

 

I mean I am glad Wall is gone, but Westbrook has the same contract!  We aren't gaining anything, the main thing was ridding ourselves of a horrible contract.  Ugh.  Rockets got the best of this one.

 

It will be interesting to see Westbrook and Beal though I won't lie.

Nope. I’m done. This is a bottom feeder franchise with no soul, among a million other traits. The fact that they had any fans was a minor miracle in and of itself. I’ve sat here with y’all and watched 90% of games over the last few decades. Waking up to watch at 3am while abroad just so I could check in. I’m out. I can’t even say it’s been fun. I hope this franchise folds.

So I admittedly don't follow basketball as closely as football or baseball...why did we throw in a 1st rounder?  Westbrook is two years older...does he come off the books earlier?


The contracts are essentially the same.  Protected 1st rounder because John hasn’t played in two years and Westbrook was putting up near-mvp numbers as recently as February.

I guess that makes sense.  I've never been good about understanding the way NBA teams work contracts and willingly trade for awful players just because they're coming off the books.  I just look at the fact that Westbrook is two years older and then wonder why we're the ones throwing stuff in.
