Russell Westbrook is on the trade block, the Detroit Pistons are interested and it’s time to seriously consider the thing I call the #WhyNot movement.
Let’s conduct a thought experiment. Russell Westbrook is good at basketball, and adding good basketball players to your team make your team better.
Doesn’t sound radical, but it is certainly counter-intuitive. Westbrook is 30 years old and might have the second-worst contract in the NBA. It’s not Westbrook’s fault that the supermax contract has turned out to be a disaster for NBA teams that make it difficult to build competitive teams around these high-priced players.
