Just wanted to share a good laugh. One of the reasons the Chicago Bulls suck so bad is because of their dumbass fans. They have allowed ownership to spend no money and or put out a good product on the court yet continue to watch games both on TV and in person. They in fact had the highest ticket sales up until last year or the year before..pathetic. I recently saw some talk about Russell Westbrook possibly going to the Bulls. A TON of Bulls fans were saying "we want Derrick Rose instead" or "Forget Russell bring Rose back".

Just thought I'd share with you how difficult it is to be a bulls fan lol.

This is actually good because they still know that D-Rose can deliver even after a few injuries but we can't deny the fact that Russ can still deliver even though he ain't wanted in any teams. Russ should return to OKC so we can play with Steven Adams since their duo is still yet to be proven. D-Rose on the other hand should really be traded within a team that would be a contender to win the chip.

It may be way to sooner but I think Warriors will win 2021 NBA Season as they had such a long break in order to prepare for it because their season basically ended after 10 games so I won't be surprised to see them in the finals. Also I would say that Nets have a good chance to reach semi-finals in their conference but we will see as transfers are still in talk in both conferences.

If you have a healthy Kevin Durant in your team, then that's such a huge boost for the team specially when he teamed up with superstars. If the Nets stay healthy all throughout the 2021 regular season, then that's an automatic Finals bound team.
On the other hand, the Western Conference are now becoming even stronger. The Denver Nuggets really impressed me with their playoff performance. While the Clippers are re-building their team with Leonard as the center piece. The Lakers are still on the process of acquiring more depth with their line up. I don't think we can say that the GSW might win in the next Playoffs. These teams I have mentioned are a very serious competitors against the GSW.

I agree, it's not that GSW will be back in their old form and dominate the West again with their healthy big 3. A lot of Western teams have upgraded in response to GSW, and now even Houston who have been GSW's main nemesis with James Harden are not even the favorite in the Western Conference. Lakers, Nuggets, Clippers, Mavericks, very good teams. So we will see if GSW with Curry can compete at high level with this teams now.

The Warriors will always be the favourite as long as their core is healthy, and the supporting cast is doing their role to help the team wins. I would say that they are eager to play again after being out for a long time, specially Curry and Thompson to bring back the old GSW. But Lakers and other teams in the West has improved a lot, so it will be a good and interesting Western conference and it will be exciting to see those team fighting it out for the top spot.

For now, no... Lakers are the favorites as they have won the championship and the warriors was back to their original core as Durant already leave the team, Warriors were most unbeatable when Durant was still playing, but they are still exciting to watch with Curry, Thompson, and Green only, that's their big 3 at the moment, the most consistent in the teams.

SPLASH BROTHERS will return healthy and they will give some headache to their opposing teams.

The way the match is going, show that Toronto will improve their point to win the match this season, that will make them win this final match, that they are finding difficult to win right now. Los Angeles are still in low point show that Toronto will still win this season which their point is high than los Angeles.

Westbrook should start learning how to adjust it's no longer his team unlike with OKC.

If ever this trade will materialized it might be good for the clippers knowing that Kawhi knows how to adjust, the rest would be in the hands of the coaches and staff bringing the team blend correctly. That 3-1 blowout is just a memory they needed to move forward and face this new season as a great challenged to try for another run to finals.

The team still needing more good players. They can train the bench players but it is really the talent and skills that matter. Not all has it in playing basketball. Tall players are at advantage but if they not know how to use or it does not have good talent to use it then it will come to waste. Lebron James is one of the best player with his athletic body and height, the coordination of his skills in shooting then he is way difficult to guard.

LA clippers should see worth players to be added in their team. This is one way ticket to win championship in the next season.

That's a huge leap.
PG13? Really? Clippers would want WB rather than PG13?
Just because of that 3-1 failure against the Nuggets? Damn!

I even doubt Westbrook will be interested in that. I mentioned previously that Westbrook wants the role that he is used to in his OKC days. It won't happen in LAC. If happened, he will become a playmaker (point guard) for the Clippers but their offensive phase will still be centered around Kawhi Leonard. The chemistry might not work even they will do a test for 5-10 games.

Westbrook is not fit for the Clippers, a conflict with the role of Kawhi, I'm sure about that unless either of them will give way as the main scorer. But I see Paul George will be a good addition to the Rockets. Rockets will win on that trade if ever or maybe the best way to say it is, Rockets will win on the trade no matter what as long as they trade Westbrook. Grin

Well, I think I would love this experiment though, PG did not do well with the Clippers, so looking for a replacement, I think Westbrook would fit. If they want westbrook to adjust, I think it's possible as they need only one consistent scorer and that is Kawhi Leonard, and besides, Kawhi is not a type of player who scored a consistent 30+ per game, so Westbrook would certainly help to destroy the defense of their opponent as he is known for his aggressive basketball using his athleticism.

Let's give it a try, why not?

Man, no disrespect to DRose but he had been inconsistent after the injury. I don't think the Bulls would want him again.

Since the Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Clippers are being mentioned here, and it's no secret already that both camps might trade Westbrook and Paul George, there is a report that both teams have conducted "preliminary" talks for a trade centered around Paul George and Russell Westbrook.

For all the trade rumors circulating about Westbrook and George, this one is actually the first rumor that began to have progress.

As it progresses, maybe both camp's next action will be to start discussing things on other teams. This will be a blockbuster trade for sure. Let's see what will happen next.

If that "preliminary" talks are already taking in action then we might really see the change of roster and this trade into reality. It has made its round in the web and in the NBA community and that's why news are also taking their time to focus on this possible trade.
Surely, it is a big trade if there will be confirmation soon.

It was also weird when both of them played again together because its like OKC part two but only without Durant. Another thing Rockets was losing was a Big man which is really important even though they have reach round two of their Playoff run. Lets just hope that they will be rebuilding a better team since it was already a good team but of course people see what they are lacking to make them better.

I think they should reconsider to get more good players other than the two superstars. We know that these two wanting to get a championship title which their previous teammate had already KD. I think it is best trade and go for good players that can help them a lot especially in the offensive part. Harden is a good shooter and westbrook too but sometimes he misses a lot. This is why i think they go for another shooter where in this gamea team usually team playera good in shooting like GSW.

Why did he moved to Rockets and wanted to play with Harden if he wants out so quickly, what was he expecting when he got there?

As usual, a better roster for his championship goal. However, it got failed.

It's clear that Westbrook stated before that he might play for the Rockets for only 1 season. But still, the Rockets give him a good long-term contract. From what I observed, the Rockets want to retain Westbrook for a long. But since Westbrook shared the same role with Harden, maybe he thinks his talent might be good to other teams instead.

But because of limited time in the off-season, I doubt that a trade involving Westbrook will happen before the start of the NBA season.

^ Don't know how it turned to be a PG topic but since we're here, he's still struggling to adjust to his role since he left Pacers. He used to be the main man especially in big games but when he moved to OKC (there's Westbrook) and then to LAC (there's Kahwi). I'm only guessing here but I think he's in the same situation where Melo was. This kinda made me appreciate D. Wade when he was able accept his role and let LBJ lead that Heat team. We all know the results after that.

There should only one leader in a team, others will just have to follow, it's a usual problem when there's 2 or 3 superstar in a team since they have played as a main man before in their previous teams, so it's hard for them to adjust, however, they need to do that in order to have a good chemistry.

It's just that there are players who really struggle adjusting, like Westbrook for instance, he paired with PG, failed, he paired with Harden, still failed and he is the reason why Durant left for GSW as they can never win a championship together.

So I just read the rumor that Kahwi is recruiting CP3 to go back to Clippers. Welp, not particularly a bad move but it will come at a price and it won't be cheap. They will probably have to let go of Lou Williams as part of the trade and some of the other guys. I am not surprised with the growing interest from other teams to land CP3, he really did well last season. Joining Kahwi and Paul is probably his best chance to win a title.

Even at his age, CP3 could still be a good compliment to any starts specially with the likes of Kawhi. But yes, it won't come in cheap, if Clippers decided to get back CP3 as it might cause a shake up on their starting five. Probably, CP3 and Kawhi will fit, but not sure about PG though, he is inconsistent and after his Pacers days, he is still good but somehow fell short with any other good team mates.

I can't agree with you on that, I think we should appreciate what Paul George contributed to the OKC Thunder, he was even nominated as a candidate for regular season at one point, I think people have seen that.

I think we could really appreciate if he and WB brings the OKC to the finals during that time. But they didn't, they fall to the Portland Trailblazers. If we go with your argument, when we will have to appreciate a lot of players during the Jordan era who will short because Jordan takes them one by one. Barkley become the regular NBA MVP, brings Phoenix to the finals but lost to Jordan.

There's no way OKC would be in the Finals, Westbrook was already playing awful that time, it was only PG who is the most consistent in the team as Westbrook was just too concern with his triple double stats, a player like that would not win an NBA FINALS.
