The funny part about how garbage Westbrook is, that if you run Lakers 4-man line-ups (>40 minutes played) in the top 6 line-ups Westbrook is featured five times, LeBron twice, AD once. Also Horton-Tucker features a lot there, too.
If you take the best three man-line-up it´s where it gets really interesting (> 80 minutes played). Westbrook is in just two line-ups, but LeBron is in only one line-up (and that one includes Westbrook).
Monk/THT have by far the highest representaton in those line-ups. Now they obviously play against a different level of opposition, but this team reminds me of the old-ass Mavs teams, when Carlisle due to injuries was forced to play rookies Powell/Anderson and they made positive overall contributions to team results with energy alone and nothing else.
LeBron is chasing Kareem´s all-time scoring record to score some points against MJ in the GOAT debate.
The best part about all the hypothetical Westbrook trades is that the Mavs need to include Dinwiddie + Bertans or THJ + X just to make the salaries match. Irving is a little easier to match, which means they´d like ask for Dinwiddie + Kleber or Bullock.
We get rid of all the bad contracts, which if you remember was THE WHOLE POINT of the Porzingis trade. The argument was two small bad contracts > one big bad contract. Then turn bad contracts into expiring contracts to clean up the mess.
