They really let a dude that brought so much to the table go over a couple mil:snoop:

Carushow shoulda been valued more. The’re gonna miss him like crazy this year..
It’s not a couple of millions though. It’s tens of millions once you factor in taxes. I rather Caruso than THT for our team currently. Need defenders.

THT has the body type to be an all time defender though.

Hope we can sign Ennis.

Finishing lineup if egos get out of the way, most effective might even be:

AD
Bron
Bazemore
Ellington
Nunn
:mindblown:
What would possess someone to write something so dumb? "Let's trade for a 40 million dollar per year player so we can bench him.":krs:

You just tried to shytpost a bunch of cumulative stats and half of them weren't even in the clutch. :dahell:

We already know Russ hogs the ball on every possession late and tries to do everything himself, that's the exact reason why he's not a good fit late on this team. And no idea where they got those %'s for 2021 cause anyone who has watched Russ knows those shooting %'s are complete bullshyt. NBA.com says Russ shot 49% from the field and 34% from 3pt in the clutch in the 2020-21 season and even making that many 3pt was a huge aberration from the norm.

Players Clutch Traditional

2019-20, Westbrook shot 22% from 3pt in the clutch
2018-19, Westbrook shot 18% from 3pt in the clutch
2017-18, Westbrook shot 21% from 3pt in the clutch
2016-17, Westbrook shot 32% from 3pt in the clutch
2015-16, Westbrook shot 20% from 3pt in the clutch
2014-15, Westbrook shot 9% from 3pt in the clutch





You can't sugarcoat that shyt, Westbrook takes awful shots late and is an ass shooter. His only role is to try to drive and then distribute, which is already Bron's role and Bron does it better. Think about it from a coach's perspective - what is Russ's role? If Bron has the ball then Russ destroys the spacing for Bron and AD, but if Russ has the ball then he's gonna make worse decisions and take worse shots at a lower rate than Bron would. And he sure ain't gonna make up for that on the defensive end. So what Russ gonna do?

See if you can answer the question without just posting memes and tweets. :mjlol:

Tbf, THT can potentially do what Caruso gives you, plus we got clear upgrades over Caruso in Nunn and Monk.
