Rondo is okay, but Westbrook would be an upgrade, in my opinion. They both have bad jump shots, but Westbrook would be able to bring energy to the 2nd unit, he's taller at 6'3", so he has a better chance at defending shooting guards as well, and he's a much more willing rebounder then Rondo. At the price, I think it's a no lose situation. I don't think he would want to come here though. Peace!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#32 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Current trade rumors have Cavs being strong buyers and are looking at Levert, Gordon, and Hield. Simmons? Altman has been an astute trader the last couple of years after numerous mistakes early in his career. IMHO Altman will make one trade before the deadline as we have the money and could use some shooting help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too big of a personality, not really what we need. I’d pass all together. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said, his ego will most likely get in the way but it was just a thought. You can't tell me that he wouldn't be an upgrade over Rondo though. Peace!!!

He’s a bulk scorer and as ball dominant as they come and just about as inefficient. I think he’s a player who’s excelled much more because of his absurd athleticism than skill and when his athleticism starts to go his game falls off a cliff. All we need is a steady vet guard who plays with effort defensively, can distribute and make a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a Westbrook fan at all but we need something outside of garland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
