ROSTER TALK: Mavs favs for Vogel if no HC job exists. Kyrie handshake deal?

[cow]

Westbrook is especially broken on the court when he's your third guy and it's why it was such a dumb move by the Lakers in the first place.  I don't think he's anywhere near as bad as the product he put on display last season.  And that's not me wanting him, because I don't.  Like @"F Gump" said, the Lakers don't want to attach picks to get rid of him.   While I didn't like the THJ signing, I do think he becomes a decent asset after this season when he only has two years left thanks to the contract structure so I'd be hesitant to send him out, even if we could attach Bertans, without some compensation coming back our way.
