DO NOT WANT.
Can't win now. And cripples chances of winning in the future.
Spurs haven't even been mentioned yet. Which makes sense. If the Spurs are really interested we won't hear anything until it happens imo

Anyone remember how fast DWade went from All Star to borderline NBA starter? Look for that from RW in the next two years. Meniscus surgery starts the clock on the knee becoming bone on bone.
Can imagine when Pop pulls him when he’s 1reb or 1assist from a triple dub?reaction on both sides instant must watch Tv
Or when he all pissed at the far end of the bench
nah. that team is too reliant on rookies as the depth. I do agree that if you trade for WB it only makes sense if you are able to retain DD and LMA though.
$90 million guaranteed after 2020-21 season over two years. No thanks.
Where’s all our SpursTalkers with Serious inside sources?
Why is this joint still open?
Yeah, good point. Father time alone would have him slowing down right about now. IIRC, Westbrook has had multiple meniscus surgeries, the results of which don't really start slowing players down until they're into their 30s. But when it becomes bone on bone, the knee basically stops functioning as before -- and that's what Westbrook has to look forward to any minute now.
Bone on bone Westbrook probably isn't even an NBA player, tbh.
You can make the argument that the Spurs should make a run for someone like Brad Beal or even Jrue Holiday ... but Westbrook? It's just a terrible idea all the way around, even before factoring in what you'd have to give up to get him.
Transforming DeRozan into Bradly Beal would be so ideal. I would call a WCF appearance right now.
Do you think DeRozan and a 1st would be enough to get Beal?
Someone should start that Trade Target thread, tbh. Beal is someone who you might ponder giving up a young buck or two in order to acquire. Not Westbrook.
Beal and DeRozan's contracts are very similiar in guaranteed amount left over next two seasons. You'd likely have to throw in a pick plus whoever out of Murray, White, Walker
I wonder if the Wizards are pissed that the Clippers didn't come calling with that same package they gave up for PG....
I bet Washington says yes to that deal and it probably would have only cost them 1/2 the picks they gave up to OKC.
I'd 100% give up one or two of the young guns for Beal tbh....
That's a great lineup.
Agree - Beal is younger and on a better deal and has a more valuable skillset. I would be absolute fine trading DeRozan + one of the young guys + multiple firsts for Beal.Someone should start that Trade Target thread, tbh.

If you can guarantee that one of the young guys is an All-Star then it’s worth it (and that is what Beal does).
I would also be kicking tires on Aaron Gordon for a lesser price obviously with Vuc and Bamba there.
Who wouldnt tbh?
Well, DeRozan's has a player option for 2020-21 season.
I would do it with either Murray and Walker. White is off the table for me.
Maybe you could try for Beal with Murray, White or Walker plus Mills and Bellinelli and pick? [Assuming that Wizards are looking to move on and free up near term cap room] Still, if Beal was being shopped I'd imagine they would find a better deal than the Spurs could put together.
I'm highest on White of any of the young guys but, man, I'd have to do DeRozan + White for Beal. That fixes any spacing issues and then you're Dejounte-Murray-becoming-a-star away from a championship, IMO.
It's virtually an expiring contract for Washington. I know PATFO are less cold hearted than other front Offices but they wouldn't be doing their job if they don't at least ask for the availability of Beal.
yeah i'd take beal over westbrook
