Wall is worse than Westbrook. He also has more years left on his contract.

Win-Win. Westbrook gets to go back to stat padding on the Wizards and Houston gets a fat piece of on a monstrously bloated contract.
Rockets had no choice. Westbrook wanted the Wizards and told Houston he would not play and would sit out the year. Surprised Washington gave up a pick
Rockets should have ing suspended him so they didn't have to pay the contract then. Dude is due more than $130 million over the next 3 years. He wasn't going to sit out and forfeit that much money. Not gonna shed a tear for the NBAPA when owners force non-guaranteed NFL style deals in the next lockout.
All because Houston owner gave republicans 105k
prima donnas
Probably the excuse so he didn't have to say Harden's a ball hog. Especially since he's an even worse one.
I keep seeing if Wall gets hurt again then insurance covers his salary. Not sure how true that is
Stephen Silas came in and told Russ and Harden he is going to implement more ball movement. Russ got upset.
Probably only if it forces him into retirement. And then someone would still try to sign him anyways later on to screw the Rockets over like the Grizzlies did to force Portland into paying Darius Miles' contract when they wooed him out of retirement.
Pretty dumb move by Silas when that team is built on just give Harden the ball and be ready to shoot threes off his penetration.
Also Silas pointed out what in Westbrook’s game was inefficient. Dude got pissed about that too
It is, however, against the Lakers Harden got double teamed and there was no other movement. I’m still interested to see how he does as first time head coach after seeing what he did with Luka.
damn I cant wait for that to happen in the NBA. Players are so annoying now with their backing out of contracts
Kawhi set a bad precedent for a lot of these players. After what Kawhi pulled off with the Spurs they now believe they can do the same.
I would like to see an owner just let his superstar sweat it out if they want out of the contract. Let that superstar know that he will have to play out his contract and make it miserable for him. I wish the Spurs had done that to Kawhi even though he would have walked and they would have gotten nothing. There is no point in signing these chodes to 4 year deals if they are only going to play 1 year then ask out for the remaining 3.
You can stand up to these players. I think the owners forgot how to do that or it's these new generation of owners don't have the backbone to do it. I remember during the 90's when the Rockets owner told Hakeem to shut up and play when he demanded to get traded to the Lakers. Scottie Pippen asked to be traded a bunch of times from the bulls but Reinsdorf refused to do it and they still ended up winning a bunch of les with a disgruntled Pippen.
I'm fundamentally against the idea of non-guaranteed contracts, but where else do the owners have to go when you sign a guy and are stuck with him (or trading him for equivalent crap) if he doesn't live up to the deal but if he's good he won't honor the deal because he wants to be elsewhere? What a joke. The league was doing great from the late 90s to the late 10s when players had guaranteed big money deals but honored their contracts. Now though if one side can effectively opt out of the deal the other should be able to also.
Media and fans fed them the narrative they are Millionaire slaves. This isn't your 90's black athlete.
