It might work if those two knuckle heads learn to play with each other instead of looking to pad their stats.
I don't know if Mike D'antoni is the coach to handle all those egos.

He has been exposed as simply a hired assassin, did his job and was paid well, rehabilitatetd his rep in health and left town.
Forever remembered, thankful, standing O, yada yada.

Holy shit, that Westbrook trade has got me so fucking hyped, I wish I wasn't at work right now hahaha. So many fascinating plot points to follow!
1. Westbrook and Harden playing together again! Besides the obvious reunion story, these are two of the most ball dominant players in the league, who both won MVPs off of individual usage rates the likes of which we've never seen before. How the hell are they going to play off each other?
2. Westbrook in a Mike D'Antoni offence? How does he fit in with an all-threes-all-the-time gameplan?
3. With the George, Westbrook and Grant trades, OKC has added eight first round picks and four pick swaps between 2020 and 2026, on top of all of their own picks. That is absolutely ludicrous! No one has ever had a pick haul like that, this could be the most audacious rebuild in NBA history. They can also happily take on Paul's contract if they're committing to a full rebuild
4. A Western Conference star stayed in the West. This is awesome purely from a Raptors perspective: Miami is not strengthened, and we can watch this crazy Rockets experiment unfold from the other side of the league
Man, the NBA is awesomeThe name's Bond, James Bond.
