Besides age, I don't think much seperates Beal and Jrue. Jrue might be better tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resilient part 2 Posted September 15, 2020 Author Share Posted September 15, 2020 read this somewhere and surprised no one even made this a bad trade suggestion, but why not a Westbrook straight up for Blake Griffen. Money close to the same and both players "may" shine better with his trade.. Houston gets a much better fit and Westbrook gets to be the guy again.. So who says NO? and dammit I want to know why!!

I’m not saying no that’s for sure but the money isn’t the same. Westbrook has more years and more money. Rockets would definitely be winning this trade. id do it in a heartbeat but let’s be real clear, the rockets aren’t shopping Westbrook and the rockets arent trading him unless they get a great deal. I would but the rockets aren’t going to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to get bad, then need to hit on a couple picks and build it the way OKC did originally. Or get lucky with other teams cast offs like we did in the early 2000s.

Pastor Dillon Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Just spit balling ideas, Rockets trade Russell Westbrook to the Magic for Aaron Gordon, AL-FAROUQ AMINU, and Khem Birch (or some other 2 million in filler) Rockets get bigger and longer with gordon and Aminu who fit the small ball mold Magic get to pair Westbrook with Vucevic. Magic dont seem to want to blow it up and rebuild, so why not open a 2 year pairing of all stars and see what happen? The east is wide open.

He's only 27 and has grown tremendously as a passer/creator as well. The Wizards are going to seek out a huge package for Beal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, people act like anyone can average 30, yet very very very few ever have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Here's another one westbrook to the hornets for Rozier and Batum Surely Jordan would rather see westbrook put up 25/10/10 than watch the team pick top 5 every year.

Charlotte trading for Westbrook makes too much sense based on their history. That's not enough for Westbrook, though. Charlotte receives: Russell Westbrook and Ben McLemore Houston receives: Miles Bridges/PJ Washington, Terry Rozier, Nicolas Batum/Cody Zeller, and #32 I obviously wouldn't and think it's dumb, but you know MJ would love it if this was on the table.
