Westbrook just cost Jokic a legendary win.
With two separate appalling mistakes. Didn't need to score, could have run clock out and gotten fouled to go up 2 or 3. Fouled on a last second 3point shot. Jokic with a 61 point triple-double. Just insane numbers.

Related, ESPN did a deep dive on the firing of Jenkins just the other day. I was surprised you hadn't shared it here already.

He stays waaaay behind the play after blowing his layup, then when he finally shows up he defends no one, isn't even close to being in a position to defend anyone, his man wide open that entire time.

The other fun person to watch in that whole play is Julius Randle. Just kinda floats around for the entire back and forth sequence.

Yeah, I think the Wolves getting him on their roster is a big reason for their slide this year. He is a doofus and, IMO, a cancer.

I REALLY hope that we don't trade KD to the Wolves because I don't see how the trade can be constructed without Randle heading our way.

I think that is an upgrade if you ask me, speaking from team dynamics. It gives us someone who can get to the rim, draw fouls, and play with some size and strength.

I think Julius Randle is worse than KD for team chemistry and results, but if he is cheaper then do it. It also gives us size. I am saying if that is the ONLY trade available.

Only 6 games left of this mess. Hope the clear out much of the roster but first start with getting rid of James Jones. He has had his chance. Please oh please keep Dunn, Oso, Gillespie, Richards. I want to see KD and Booker traded. I never want to see Damion Lee in a Suns uniform ever again.

I disagree. I don’t think he helps much of anything unless your goal is to lose and be miserable to watch.
