    Plumlee is reaching Harkless levels in terms of availability in trades. I kinda wanna see him stick here with a rim running, shot blocking C behind him.

    Or hell, as a PF next to Boogie.

    Whoa.

    I agree. Hes a keeper, and the good part is Aminu is getting paid like a backup so he doesn't need to be traded either and can just backup Plumlee.

    Would you trade Hark and Plum for Cousins?

    On talent alone that wouldn't get Sacramento's attention. They're going to get better offers.

    Turner continues to play extremely well. Loving his game and his attitude out on the court.

    The refs let Westbrook get away with so much bullshit

    Jon Barry got his protein tonight sucking Westbrook off all game. That was at minimum 50% of the broadcast.

    What kind of question is that?

    Hey, would you trade Harkless for Lebron?

    It was a very frustrating broadcast to listen to. Typical national broadcast....had a few talking points and repeated it over and over for two hours.

    Did you know Westbrook averages a triple double?

    Followed very closely by Harkless, IMO. For the combined total of the following reasons:
    1 - He's very* good.
    2 - There aren't very* many good (let alone, very* good) SFs in the league.
    3 - His contract is very* friendly.

    Add that all up, and trading him would likely be a step backwards. I'd trade CJ before Harkless, and I'm not on the "trade CJ" bandwagon (yet).
    *"Very" is a very strange looking word when you start using it a lot.

    You're being ridiculous. He played spot minutes in a couple games. That's not enough to build a rythym at all, especially for a rookie.
