The problem is that if he stays with the Lakers, it will only be the best option for him, but not for the team.

I see an unmotivated Russ so yes it's bad for the team but it's also bad for him. He really wants to be out that's why he fired his agent who suggested he stays. Westbrook is not some no name and newbie anymore. I think he is already at a point where he cares more where he can play happily than the money he gets.

He's no longer in his prime, so better to play with the team that he will be more comfortable and happy. With how we see him

playing with Lakers, there's nothing to discuss the result itself can dictate how he and the team lacking of trust with each other.

If in this upcoming season he will be landing to a different team, it's best to see him playing the same old Westbrook that we all know.

Taking charge comfortably and not to hesitate as he's thinking of someone that has the alpha tag with the team.

Exactly why I think he doesn't want to stay with the Lakers. Some people just doesn't see it that way and they're tying to downplay the working environment Russ in in right now as if he hasn't experienced the hostility yet. The guy knows what he wants and the style of basketball that he wants to play.
