I’m on bored with the Westbrook trade. He will do well. Durant ditched him and they had some bad injury luck.
The other years don’t matter. Who thought the Wizards were going to do anything? Harden choked every year with the Rockets. Paul George is a loser.
Russ isn’t completely without blame, but he has LeBron and AD now. It’s going to work. They might not win a title, but they will be better. He will play hard and the pressure won’t make him collapse. If anything, he’s consistent.

They have no floor spacing. Lbj and Westbrook don’t play any defense at this point. I expect them to coast through the regular season because their bodies are all broken down. There is a lot that can go wrong and AD needs to carry them. They will rebound the hell out of the ball but I don’t see this ending well.
Letting Caruso go and re-signing some dude named Horton-Tucker for more than Caruso got seems dumb too.
Caruso is a great defender and can knock down open shots. Not a huge difference maker, but at least a guy you can depend on.
Edit: Just read Horton-Tucker is a Klutch guy. Now it makes sense.
There’s no denying the Lakers/Klutch thing but Horton-Tucker is a well regarded young guy. Played two seasons, only 20 years old, supposedly was the sticking point on a Lowry trade last year.
This also doesn’t seem like it was a choice between those two but a choice between Caruso and Nunn. I would have gone Caruso but they’ve been obsessed with getting shot creators since Lebron got there and that’s something Caruso doesn’t do.
