The problem with Westbrook is (and has always been) that he must be on ball to play well. That's why he's playing better lately, because he's on ball much more. First, they moved him to the bench (which he refused for years) and now Lebron is out, providing even more opportunity.
If he can only play well on ball, and if, when he plays on ball, your team isn't any good (which seems to be the case these past several years) then it's really, really easy to understand why nobody wants him. That's damage to the cause THJ (or any other non-star, off-ball player) couldn't inflict if they were trying to lose games for you.
