Helping somebody else... Helps us.

Russell Westbrook to the Lakers.

Deangelo Russell, Thabo Sefolosha, Mike Scott, and 2 First (LAL) to OKC.

Louis Williams to Atlanta. 

This trade helps OKC move on.  They get a stud PG in DeAngelo Russell.  They get a familiar vet in Sefolosha.  And 2 expiring contracts in Sef and Scott..   In fact, Scott's contract is not guaranteed so they can save cap room right away.

The Lakers get Russell Westbrook who they can make the face of the franchise.

OKC should be getting the message that Russell is leaving and word is he wants to be a Laker.   Therefore they can get DeAngelo Russell and let him be their new PG... and 2 first from the Lakers. 

We take in Louis Williams.  Another Hometown product but in essence a perfect BU for Dennis.

Perfect backup?  Are you kidding me?  When has he ever played point guard (maybe his rookie season until Philly realized he can't play that position)?  He is an EXTREMELY bed shot taking player who is an EXTREMELY undersized shooting guard.   Yes he can score points but in a very inefficient way.

Well, if you watch him play defense, some would say that's what he does during the season too.  Ohhhh or should I say Ohhh-layyy!
