    No Russ, please. It's PTSD inducing. Just DLO.

    Few interesting notes from Lowe's Insider article today...

    Grizz apparently were willing to offer every pick and swap they were allowed to move in order to get KD.

    Grizz and Pacers both offered 3 firsts for OG. Pelicans didn't get involved.
    GS inquired but were far off on the ask for OG

    i figured toronto wanted players more than picks for anunoby. kuminga isn't that bad of a centerpiece in return, imo, assuming he was also coming with picks.

    gs's two-track plan is not working; had to salary dump a lotto pick and tried to move one of the other two. wonder if lacob's going to keep lecturing everyone on how it's done.

    The warriors absolutely dropped the ball on that Wiseman deal. To deal their #2 overall pick for scraps...that's unforgivable and terrible asset management

    Russell Westbrook is expected to make a decision between the Bulls and Heat this week, per Chris Haynes of TNT and Bleacher Report.
    Russ is expected to be bought out, but nothing is official yet. Despite reports of the Clippers being interested, Russ will reportedly choose between two teams where he has a chance to start. Chicago starts a second year point guard in Ayo Dosunmu. Even if they roll with the same starting lineup, Russ would certainly see minutes over Goran Dragic. In Miami, Kyle Lowry doesn't appear to be a guaranteed starter anymore, though Russ would compete with Gabe Vincent for minutes off the bench if he doesn't get the starting nod. Both teams sat still at the deadline, so getting a chance to sign Russ could help their depth.

    My God Durant didn't want to get Memphis and play with Morant, JJJ, and Bane? Jesus that team would have been stacked

    Can't wait to see Spoelstra's face after Russ has one of his many brain farts on the court. Odds of getting into a fight on the sidelines with Butler?: there's a history here with the Heat of these guys getting physical when they get called out

    Russ should go to Chicago if he wants to play.

    Doesn’t specify Lakers or Clippers, but I would take him back as a veteran locker room guy. Wouldn’t expect much on the court at his age and after that injury, but a good guy to have around

    Yeah, that would be alright. He has great chemistry with Bron and AD and his championship experience is so valuable. He would not play much at all, I don't think.

    I would be us I'm sure, Clips are stacked @ small forward. And the Clips are not the default LA team yet, or ever, so LA still means The Lakers.

    Green is done though isn't he? Getting 3/1/0 in Memphis, low minutes but his per 36 is 7/3/1

    Honestly I'd take him back as a locker room guy and insurance/garbage time. He's always good for punching someone.
