He deserves better than that he kept us in the series against Phoenix. It’s our other glass bones stars that are the reason we lost
So the clippers are gonna pay him minimum wage
Unfortunately due to new CBA, that the best we can do unless we managed to unload bunch of people and get under the cap.
That’s all they can offer, don’t have an MLE thanks to the new CBA rules
We need to blow it up
That’s very much a “wink wink, we’ll take care of you next year like we did with Nic” offer
Yikes I get that’s all we can do but man, I’d hate to be the FO offering this to him since it’s straight up insulting lol I want Brodie back but dude can get like 5 times as much from other teams
Yikes!!!
I think he got rid of his agent, I don’t know if he has a new one. But, I do hope that the front office is aware that they’d have to convince his wife that this is a good deal, if they plan on trying to convince him that it’s a good one! 😀
They know it’s going to be a very hard sell, that’s why this number leaked out.
He would be smart to take it. It’s good for his brand and redefines his branding back into positive discourse.

I appreciate some of the things he did for us last season but If Russ is the 3rd option and primary ball handler next season we can basically give up any hope of turning the Kawhi-PG era around
Bro already rich asf so I guess he can still see his fam in LA if he wants or go for the bag
3.8M? …..why 2.5M? Sad for Russell
C’mon, Russ. Mental health + family > Money.
Do we know which teams would want to sign him. I assume Chris Paul and Mike Conley would be more sought after before they settle on Westbrook
Bye Russ, nice knowing you 😢
Hopefully Russ lets them know whether he will or won’t take it sooner than later so they can blow it up if he don’t.
Yeah. He might be staying.lol. Money sliding under tables as we speak
We are going to continue to dig ourselves into a hole by riding the failed Kawhi and PG experiment. At some point we have have to rip the band aid off or we are going to become the Knicks of the west…
Great value if they can get him at this price. I’m still thinking Westbrook gets the MLE somewhere.
