How he is playing now, I don't think that is a fit on a good team. Way too much Westbrook. Now, that team last night didn't have much, but it looks similar even when they have a full team. Would he rather lose and be Westbrook or will he accept a bench role on a good team? It may be moot because with that salary, it would take a lot for a team to trade for him.To me, this is just what he did for years in OKC... and maybe a factor in KD's decision to leave? He couldn't do it much in HOU because of Hardin's presence, so he asked out and got traded to WAS where he has the freedom to do his own thing. I have always liked his fire but thought he played too much hero ball for ultimate team success. I'm not sure what his future is, but that huge contract will be hard to swallow for a bunch of teams and if WAS tries to tone him down to fit better I think he'll express his displeasure, loudly.
