Have been banned from the other thread by an apparently sensitive snowflake (ironically after dozens of pages of political discussion from others) so I'll stick my thoughts on the NBA Playoffs here from now on. We needed a new thread anyway. [Reply]

If the plan is for LeBron and AD to just stand around on the perimeter watching Westbrook throw up garbage for the entire regular season, that's fine. Problem is they won't make the playoffs doing that.
LeBron will have to take the ball and control at some point, it's simply in his nature to do so. And when he does, Westbrook is literally the worst off-ball guard to have on the court because teams don't even guard him. [Reply]

Wizards certainly don't seem too impressed.
This isn't a good move at all IMO. LeBron would do much better w a better shooting PG instead of a ball hog who loves to constantly drive to the hole like Westbrick. [Reply]

Weird fit but honestly LA doesn't have a lot to give up either. Te Wizards haul in that looks less than impressive even with wanting expiring contracts. Their 3rd best player last year is an FA. [Reply]
