Westbrook and Harden. Neither sharing the ball. Have fun watching basketball everyone else
How does that help Houston? They probably drop to the 7/8 position in the West now.
Morey is always looking to rejig things, and he is under pressure from an impatient owner. If the rumours are to be believed CP3 and Harden weren't getting on, Russ represents a younger option and an end (at least for now) to the bad blood. Problem is he can't shoot 3's like CP3 could, isn't as adept at assists, and players like him that rely on their physicality tend to fall off a cliff in terms of production

2019/20 rule change: Houston gets to play with two balls to keep Russ & Harden happy.

ESPN article about OKC.
The rise and fall of OKC, the NBA's small-market miracle
With Russell Westbrook and Paul George gone, the next era of OKC basketball sends the franchise somewhere it has never been.

Russ is a better player than CP3, so on a very basic level the Rockets should be a better team.
Will that actually happen? I'm not sure.
I think this is great news for the Rockets and in particular Harden. Harden will adjust his game as will Westbrook.

Bahahahaha. Bahahaha. Suuuuuure they will. This is a disaster waiting to happen with the union of two ball-hogs.

@Sneakdefreak yeah I have seen this scenario this morning mentioned by several people on social media. Not sure how likely it actually is though.
Paul would work for OKC if they had another go-to player but they have absolutely no one.
Wait......it's all coming to fruition........Adams is about to become a 30-10 player ............
I'll see myself out
In all seriosuness I'd be surpised if Adams didn't average 18/10 this season.

@ACT-Crusader I can't imagine you typed that with a straight face

Tim Duncan is back with the San Antonio Spurs, this time as an assistant coach under Gregg Popovich.
Fundamental move: Duncan joins Spurs' staff
"It is only fitting, that after I served loyally for 19 years as Tim Duncan's assistant, that he returns the favor," Gregg Popovich said in a statement.

@KiwiMurph
Im not a GS fan but would be cool if all three of Clay/Steph/Draymond got drafted, won championships and finished at GS. -
@KiwiMurph said in NBA season 2018/19:
Draymond Green has agreed to a four-year, $100M maximum contract extension with the Golden State Warriors
That's their main core set in stone for the next few years. All 3 had their chance to move, but they have all decided to spend the rest of their primes in GS

Vince is back for a farewell tour with the hawks.
Also good interview with Stephen A Smith and Melo. Be interesting to see if someone picks him up.

He seems humbled, I just don't see his lack of defence and his skill set as an asset for a contender

@canefan yeah i heard on jalen and jacoby. Jalen was suggesting bron hits up the front office for him to get signed. I reckon bad idea. But any other team outside of the contenders couldn't do worse. What do you think about pelicans 6th man?

I don't think he can keep up! He is a defensive liability, so a team like LA at least half makes sense. Their bigs might be able to bail him out. But if LBJ wanted Melo he could have had him already
