OKC better trade Russell Westbrook.

Him and Durant's playing styles together do not provide a consistent chemistry for the team. I also think Westbrook is a little selfish and hates being 2nd to Durant lowkey.

Last night against the Cavs,OKC stop playing defense. Cavs scored 42 pts in the 4th qtr
 



Trading Westbrook is something I wouldn't advise... he's a matchup problem for every other team in the league. He and Durant mesh well together... I don't see any problems.
 
Trade an elite PG??? Dude wtf is wrong with you lmaooo...he is coming off of an injury so the chemistry is not quite right. Durant and Ibaka will still need to be the 1-2 punch for Okc until Russ gets 100%
 
The Thunder won't do it and never consider it even though it would be best for team chemistry. KD is the better player. Westbrook is NOT a point guard. Just an athlete who is at the PG guard position. Same for Derrick Rose.

There is no way Westbrook should be taking more shots than arguably the best player in the NBA.

How did the Thunder fare without him this year?

Last year in the playoffs was the first year without Harden and there was no #2. KD didn't have the killer mentality he has this year.

Your best player should not have to defer to a #2 who is explosive but inconsistent.
 
1. The regular season doesn't matter.

2. Kevin Durant played some of the best ball of his career in the playoffs last year, and he was befuddled that it wasn't enough to advance the Thunder. You can kill that he lacked a killer mentality.

3. In order to win the title, Westbrook has to be a big part of the equation. Should he take more shots? Nope. But he has to matter a lot.
 
Should have never traded harden....but when I think about it, they just could not keep harden. Russ already plays like a shooting guard and when you look at james' success in Houston, you see he has become a beast. You could not have all three of those guys on the roster for money purposes and chemistry reasons. I can see them NOT winning the championship this year which sucks because I love KD.
 
I would take Harden over Westbrook. I like his game more, but I don't own the Thunder and my opinion does not matter...lol.
 



I think they are cool with what they have, just have to harness all of the talent and make it work. In my opinion coach should let a PG bring it down and whoever he passes it to should pass it or shoot it. Westbrook won't back down from being aggressive, you gotta let him do his thing. Same with KD, when he has the ball passing should be the last thing on his mind unless he can find an open shooter....
 
A lot of Westbrook shoots come in transition either off steals he makes or turnover he causes... No need to give up the rock on those type plays. Even in the half court he gets a lot of shots off hustle plays where he says loose balls or fights for a rebound and immediately attacks the rim. Then on Defense he competes... like a pitbull with arms like a spider.
