Besides, Westbrook only has 2 years left on that deal. I can think of way worse moves.
I mean Bertans is +14.8 in the series. Playing pretty well as a stretch 4/5. Mavs have the best DefRtg with Bertans on the floor, and he is shooting 39 % from 3.
Suns really hasn't figured out the Kleber/Bertans combo, those 2 are doing their thing on the Suns so far. They are doing similar things as in the regular season, where the combo was +15.7 in 128 min.
+20 in 27 min together
131.6 OffRtg
111.1 DefRtg
Westbrook is unplayable. Bertans is atleast useable.
