    and picks.

    The Oklahoma City Thunder have agreed to trade Russell Westbrook to the Houston Rockets for Chris Paul, first-round picks in 2024 and 2026, pick swaps in 2021 and 2025, league sources tell ESPN.

    Well, we do need a backup PG. Time to undo the #3 pick for Webs, Freeland and Jack deal?

    I think Houston's the best team in the West now. I don't think Paul fit with Harden, but I think Westbrook can.

    really? I know they are buddies but I don't see them meshing well together. Russ takes too many shots, and isn't a good shooter.

    OKC has stockpiled a thousand picks
