Just before Thanksgiving, I explaine
why I thought that Washington Wizards General ManagerTommy Sheppard should hit Enter on the W-4-W trade: John Wall straight up for Russell Westbrook.
Now that this trade happened yesterday, I would like to officially congratulate Sheppard for the boldest move he has done so far in his tenure and one of the boldest moves in franchise history.
Sure, Sheppard eventually had to throw in a sweetener: a protected first-rounder at least three years out. I'll take that.
As Beal allegedly said back in 2019 ``It starts at the top”.
