NBA Week 2- Where Aussies feature in 4 of 6 Monday marquee games

Which is my point about Westbrook

Is he happy to be a passenger? NO

Did the Nets experiment work with 3 scorers? NO

Is the current Clippers experiment with Russ, PG and Leonard work? NO

Westbrook will be a facilitator for sure. Long gone are his days of 20 shots anyway.

Nets experiment failed because Harden/Irving were just too similar if you ask me. Feel the 3 of Harden/PG/Leonard provide different things and can work

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

The disaster that was Harden is over, can finally focus on the games. Honestly feel it is a fair trade anyway. Sixers are giving Maxey/Joel the team, and have acquired more depth to facilitate, Clippers get Harden who on earth knows if this works. If I were a baskteball betting man the Sixers will end up with the better end, just don't think the 4 star thing will work.

Depth? The players they grabbed are absolute bums. They need to flip them off to find some depth.

It's solid depth, who knows in a new system they can contribute, I do rate 2 of the ones they have got. Give Maxey some options and let him go. I actually like the trade, you get depth and lets be real the sides that win championships have depth (no i'm not saying the sixers are winning but you get my point). Then they have 4 draft picks as well including two first rounders with one unprotected, this flops and that is potentially a top 5 lottery selection.

So what role will Harden play? Can't see this working unless Westbrick is flipped for role players

Defensive-minded perimter defender.....

I think he will more or less play the role he normally plays as that foul taking drive to the basket PG

I dont see the 2 of Westbrook/Harden on the floor together often. Westbrook will head to the bench now Harden is around who will play the PG role but take on more of the scoring load away from PG/Leonard in that starting 5. Team will be

Harden
PG
Leonard
Mann
Zubac

Westbrook, Hyland, Plumlee, Tucker , Powell

Not sure they need any role players other then the ones they have. They can likely trade Powell for a defensive minded guard if they need too when the time comes

Westbrook will be traded by All Star break, won't work and he is too proud to be a role player off the bench. Plus, he will not be on the court for the last few mins.

Mann is undersized at the 4 a

Tucker may be the 4 to start the game - Harden, PG, Kawhai, Tucker, Zubac or Harden, Mann, PG, Kawhai, Zubac

Powell will be also on the table, needs to ball in hand

Cleveland are so boring and frustrating to watch atm.

Cleveland are so boring and frustrating to watch atm.

most inconsistent team around any chance Mitchell does something aside from looking pretty?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

He did something lol

 

[peternorth]

DiVincenzo a foul machine

Really stems from their uniforms. Hey let's chuck a big C on the chest.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Cleveland are so boring and frustrating to watch atm.

They do have 4 of the best 8 injured/out in Jarret Allen, Darius Garland, Caris Levert and Ricky Rubio.

Bench is just ****ing trash atm. Swear I just saw Tristan Thompson check in for 10+ minutes this half?

The Nets experiment didn’t fail due to in court fit, when they were playing it looked great.

It didn't work

Thus, why they all wanted a trade out

That’s a seperate point to the 3 scorers point. It didn’t work because Kyrie is a head case, when they were in the court it worked fine.

Let's wait and see how long before Russ get's the shits

Reckon Westbrook stays but he'll have to play the cp3 role off the bench. Surely Harden is the dominant ball handler setting up the likes of kawhi & pg to score. Westbrook wants to be in LA & this his best shot at a chip. Imo clippers keeping Westbrook is probably a good move in trying to keep harden in check a bit. They've got a strong bond.

Why isn't Thibs taking the starters out know the Knicks have this game on ice? Poor man
Management

This might be a silly question but is harden better than Westbrook?
