Westbrook is a typical Lakers player, Kobe-like, who loves the press, the pop culture, the fashion culture, Hollywood. Of course he is talented, one of the best players in the league, but his hero ball style is the opposite of everything we’re trying to build here. Durant has some good reasons to going away from him: individual talents apart, Golden State is a team with a strong collective style. Russell is selfish, addicted to his own stats. And Westbrook’s super-freakish-athletic style probably won’t age very well.
His agent should be fired if he not say to RW to test the free agency. No way he agrees with an extension. This is only wishful thinking for delusional fans.
Throw away our assets for him will cost us years. Big setback.
