Love it!

Why on earth did the Clippers feel the need to get him when they already have George and Leonard!? Have these franchises learned nothing from trying to piece together a team of aging stars that have to share the ball?

And they seem to have Westbrook willing to take on a third wheel complementary role... and doing fairly well in it.

Will he be as willing to be the 4th wheel?

I hope it implodes. And I hope Harden becomes irrelevant on NBA courts soon. I never liked his gimmick game.

They need like 4 more scorers they don’t have enough. They need more guys to help Powell and Hyland have to fight to get up shots!

I like that Westbrook is having success with the Clippers. I thought he got crapped on way too much when he was a Laker. His shooting percentages will likely come down but he will likely be a pretty good value considering what they are paying him.

Hell of a night so far...

- Wolves beat Pels
- Spurs lose to the Knicks
- Clippers lose to Brooklyn
- Utah loses to Indiana
- Toronto up 10 after 3 against Dallas
- Memphis losing to Miami
- Lakers getting crushed by Houston
- Phoenix neck and neck with Chicago
- Looks like OKC is going to beat Cleveland. OKC is for real.

As a Spurs and Wemby fan, I am not happy! But I like DLO and the Lakers losing and Harden and Clips losing.

And the Nuggets beat the Warriors without Jamal Murray. And Murray is going to miss a few weeks...

Just not sure what Milwaukee was thinking here. I get trying to land Dame, but then you just have to have a backcourt mate that can defend.

Milwaukee #26 in defensive rating this season so far.
