If you get asked as the owner, you can't say Westbrook was horrendous. He is still on your team and who knows if the trade will happen. You have to suck up to him just in case you have to go to training camp or god forbid the regular season with him playing.

You also want to try to prop up his trade value every chance you get. It's all about leverage.

It was damage control. There was no ambiguity about her statement.

"All I can say is that, from my point of view, (Westbrook) was our best player last year. He played pretty much every single game, showed up, worked hard. You know, I would have loved to have seen what this team would have looked like if they stayed healthy. It’s really tough to win when Anthony Davis isn’t on the court. LeBron was hurt a lot of the season. But Russ showed up every game and played hard every night. And, you know, I just really appreciate him for who he is and what he brings to the team."

:roll:

Bronies aren't going to like this. You know Lebron himself is FUMING.

[Full Court]

Her "clarification" (via text message):

"The word I should have used was ‘consistent.’ He played 78 games last season.”

:roll: Damage control.

Personally, I thought Monk was the Lakers' best player last year, but I suppose a good case can be made for Westbrook.

Westbrook isn't going anywhere. I'll be watching purely for the laughs, although it's sad seeing this organization deliberately destroying the later years of the GOAT'S career. Kobe stans gonna Kobe stan. :facepalm

[Spurs m8]

They are absolutely fuming
