Wait a minute, I thought Harden left OKC because he didn't want to share the ball with Westbrook.
He was traded because OKC didn't want to pay all three of those guys. I don't believe there was any beef among the three of them.
The Westbrook trade has huge disaster potential. He's a terrible three point shooter, but loves chucking them up. I understand getting out from the Paul contract, but this could be really ugly.

The Warriors could do well in the playoffs, but they won't have a 4 seed. They'll be without Klay for most of the year. The 4th team will be the Rockets (if Westbrook isn't a disaster) or Portland.

Blight Howard is baaaack with the Lakers on a non-guaranteed contract. First DeMarcus Cousins eats humble pie and promptly blows out his knee. Now Howard promises to be a good boy, but the Lakers say they will cut him at any sign of dissent. This is the same guy who left town when they offered to make him the star of the franchise. How the mighty have fallen.
