I despise this move for the clippers

i just dont get in the slightest

 

[Gecklund]

I don’t love it unless he agreed to a VERY limited role and continues agreeing to that role. He does offer a play style that the Clippers don’t have already but he also offers an attitude that the Clippers don’t have. He’s competitive as hell though and hopefully he can come in and take some pressure off the big guys. I think this will end up like the Wall deal though.

Isn’t this just signing a less-injured Wall?

Turnover prone? Check.
Can’t make jump shots? Check.
Diminished athleticism? Check.

Not really. Westbrook is a much better floor general than Wall and this is coming from someone who hates Westbrook and loved prime Wall.

Paul George came out and said a couple weeks ago that bringing in Westbrook to run the offense would help them. Of course we know that NBA players aren't always the best GMs but it does sound like they have that specific role in mind for him, and they don't really have someone to be that kind of guy now.

clippers spacing is better than the lakers because they have guys who can actually shoot, so westbrick's passing ability will help them out there. aside from that, i really don't know why the clips make this move unless 1. they're only planning on playing him 10-15 minutes a game or 2. he's accepted a role as a facilitator. with his ego, i doubt it's 2

mann has been playing well and they just traded for hyland (who complained about lack of playing time in denver,) so i just don't see the need for russ. unless they're banking on him reverting back to his OKC form?

Nah, in their prime, Wall was the better play maker.

Wall hasn’t been in his prime for like 6 years now. Westbrook is a much better floor general than Wall is now and it’s not really close.
