Certainly worth a call, but all the talk is he wants to go west.
Coined the CelticsBlog term, "Euromistake."

Not interested in Westbrook, really.

How funny would it be if Westbrook actually stays in OKC and re-signs with them next summer?  Be even funnier if the Thunder beat the Warriors in the playoffs next year now that the team if truly RW's team.

Westbrook is as good as gone now!  Time for Ainge to get his thoughts together and move on to Russel Westbrook. It is obvious KD knows of Westbrook's future plans and now Sam Presti must move him before losing him in free agency!!

You have to at least call about him. I don't see how they can rationalize trying to keep him and risk him leaving for nothing, too.

I'm curious to see what happens with him. Is he a lock to be traded now? Will they want to see how he and Oladipo can play together?

There's absolutely no way that they can justify risking losing another MVP-type talent for nothing. They have to trade him, imo.

Just don't trade for him. No need for a one year rental.

How funny would it be if Westbrook actually stays in OKC and re-signs with them next summer?  Be even funnier if the Thunder beat the Warriors in the playoffs next year now that the team if truly RW's team.

Why would it be funny? He won't be recruited by the best teams. Clev, GS, LAC -- none of them will recruit him due to already having PG. Would he fit in SA? It Pop thinks so, I suppose that could happen.
