Seriously though:

Miami gets Westbrook
Utah gets Winslow
OKC gets Dragic, Bam, Exum, Herro, draft compensation from Miami, 2nds from Utah

Miami gets their guy and save money. OKC gets young players, picks and save money (this year and tons starting next year). Utah gets a starter at PF.

I haven't given up on Exum, but Winslow fits a direct need more than Exum does. If OKC is willing to dump Grant, I don't see them wanting Winslow who makes more for longer than Exum.

Miami will say no because they have high hopes for Bam, especially after they got rid of Hassan. Try somebody else.

Luc would be a great option, IMO. See how he does coming back from that injury, and he might give us some great defensive presence. Tony Jones believes there isn't a chance that Carter would come. Not sure why. I don't think he's cited "sources" on that.

Because at this point in his career Vince probably wants to go somewhere where he can get minutes. Here he would just be sitting on the bench unless someone got hurt.
 
Omari spellman to GS... he looked really large at SL. @infection gonna be sad on that one though... rough day between green and spellman.

He could have been an option for us too... oh well...

I think there are issues there. He looked really out of shape and there has been some weird stuff around him. I think there is a reason he was sold for peanuts.

Right now is literally the worst time for Miami to trade bam. He's looking at a potential breakout year and his value will certainly go higher as the season progress.

Bam has potential but Miami just got Butler. Their window is right now. If you are Miami and can get a Russell Westbrook to pair with Butler, you sacrifice anybody on their roster to do it.

If they trade Bam, Herro, Winslow, and Dragic for Westbrook in my 3 team scenario, Miami starts:

Westbrook
Waiters
Butler
Leonard
Olynyk

That team, outside of Waiters, is very balanced. Leonard and Olynyk will do the grunt work and spread the floor while Westbrook and Butler create all the shots.

Westbrook is not the star that's worth the expense of your young prospects. Just ask Detroit who's reportedly refusing to give away sekou in their trade offer for Westbrook.

They won't move that much and they will sneak some bad salary like Waiter or Johnson in the deal. I think the basic deal would be Winslow, Dragic, Waiters out RW in... winslow flipped to a third team for picks or retain by OKC. Maybe a second or first from Miami (if they have one)… maybe Dragic can be moved to a third team for an asset.

Westbrook won't get a ton... that contract is tough to swallow.
 
I could see a three team salary swap of CP to Miami, westbrook to Houston, Miami sends bad salary to OKC... Houston adds a couple firsts that go to OKC. Miami has bad deals but they only last two years, so preferable to the longer Paul and Westbrook deals if you are OKC.
