Russell Westbrook

According to a leaked report from GMs around the NBA, many around the league expect the Thunder to deal 27-year-old superstar point guard Russell Westbrook “very soon” as the team gets the feeling he will not re-sign with them in the offseason. [tweet https://twitter.com/RealGM/status/753274314334416896] This sort of move would mark a complete retool for the [...]

Surely the New York Knicks aren’t thinking about their next point guard after just trading for Derrick Rose. LOL, just kidding. Of course they are. They are the Knicks. They are in a position to have a bunch of cap space next year, even with the dip in projections, and the point guard well will [...]

Maybe a Russell Westbrook trade is more likely than we thought. It instantly became a possibility after Kevin Durant decided to join the Golden State Warriors. The Oklahoma City Thunder cannot afford to lose the last of their two top-seven superstars for nothing, and Westbrook will be a free agent in 2017. If they aren’t [...]

So much for the relationship between Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook being peachy keen. They themselves have denied it, and it has become common practice to vilify those who think a rift between the two existed.

Yesterday was an Independence Day that will live in infamy for those living in the state of Oklahoma and not for good reason (unless you live in Seattle or Northern California).

Now that Kevin Durant is a member of the Golden State Warriors, it’s only a matter of time before the Oklahoma City Thunder cut their losses and trade Russell Westbrook. Or maybe not. As ESPN.com’s Royce Young explained: They still have Westbrook, though, at least for another year. He’s an unrestricted free agent next summer [...]

Kevin Durant has an important decision to make this offseason. Russell Westbrook may or may not play a role in shaping it. Per Anthony Slater of The Oklahoman: [tweet https://twitter.com/anthonyVslater/status/738051838813995009] You have to appreciate Durant’s candor. He isn’t always like this with the media. It’s almost surprising that he would deliver such an honest answer [...]

Is Stephen Curry a good defender? He’s certainly not a terrible one. And there are times when he’s underrated, because criticism is so unnecessarily prevalent. Take the Golden State Warriors’ Game 5 Western Conference Finals win over the Oklahoma City on Thursday night. Curry didn’t see a ton of time on Russell Westbrook, but on [...]

The Oklahoma City Thunder have won six of their past 7 playoff games by an average of 15 points per victory. That’s an impressive stat or accomplishment for an NBA team in the increased stakes and high level of competition of the NBA Playoffs. When you consider that run of dominance has come against two [...]
