I don't see it. Westbrook has played with other stars for a while and its the same thing, without the ball in his hands he won't be happy.
I don't see Westbrook as ball-dominant in the same was CP3 is or Harden is. He doesn't just dribble 16 seconds off the shot clock doing nothing. He'll post up. He's a better set-up guy than Paul is now. This team scares me more than the LA LeBron/ADs and even a little more than the Clippers. This is two MVP caliber players in the backcourt. And I think their styles fit.
He's owed over 41M/year over the next 3 years. How do you buy out a contract like that without trashing the team's cap? Paul isn't going to walk away from that kind of money. I think OKC will spend the next year or two exploring every trade they can to dump Paul
The same could be said about most guards in the NBA unless they are elite defenders. I mean, a guard without the ball can't score or pass. You have a point, though, if Harden doesn't let Westbrook have the ball. However, Westbrook can play power guard, and he's better than Paul by quite a bit at this point. I think Harden will be more likely to defer to him enough to make them extremely dangerous.
WHAT THE FUCK? This is great for the Blazers! Obviously Houston was lying that there was no beef between Paul and Harden.
