I would be surprised if anyone offers him a starting role. There wont be much of a market for him.

Honestly i think it's time to hang it up. I don't think there's anything in the market for an emotion uncontrollable past his prime player that can't shoot and has a bad attitude. Westbrook used to be my favorite player and loved watching him from 2010-2017. He was a beast and one of the most exciting players to watch.

Westbrick sounds delusional so who knows. The only better opportunity he's getting is to work for TV. He doesn't really fit anywhere in the NBA.

He was actually defending well and did positive things but couldn’t hit a shot to save his life after game 1.
24/23/62 shooting splits in the series, 19/15 splits after game 1.

Will he return next year?
Even though he's from LA and the new arena opens next year, I think he's gone unless things change.

He should go back to Wizards. Him and Jordan Poole and Kuzma should be an interesting combo.

Westbrook needs to retire. His limited skill set has caught up with him now that his athleticism has declined.

To everyone that blamed the Lakers and said Russ was being scapegoated. Sincerely y'all can kiss our Purple and Yellow asses.
I guess it's the clippers fault for his piss poor play this time.
He'll go detroit average 20/10/15 on 37/15/65 splits and the stans will come running.

He's a capable backup at this point. Knicks could use a backup playmaker

Go Play with Durant in Phoenix Westy
I want him to play with Wemby and Pop
That's the best team for Westbrook to Start and create a nice entertaining next season for the Spurs

LeBron wanted him in LA then had the gall to throw him under the bus when it didn't work out.
I knew from the get go that it wouldn't.

Backup PG. Hes playing the best defense of his career however his shot creation is horrid and has lost a step.
He's a less irritating Pat Bev at this point

Both AD and Lebron wanted him in LA. Their stupid fault that fans had to witness that trainwreck along with Rob. Nobody needed to throw him under the bus his piss poor play did it all by itself.
Russ sucks. Im glad people got to witness it outside of the Lakers.

Looks like Clippers might have been covering for him when he was supposedly happy to come off the bench earlier in the season.

Good for him. He's a league mvp and harden never achieved anything Westbrook hasn't, so why is he starting over him? The clippers screwed him.
