Took most of the season for Ham to realize Reaves is the 3rd best player on the team. Finally put him in the starting lineup tonight. 25 points, 11 assists (career high). +18 (highest on the team)

He is getting PAID. How much depends on if some other team wants to fuck with us.

I was going to comment a few days ago on the fact that AR has benefitted the most from Westbrook being traded.

Defensively, he has been AMAZING. Kind of a non factor offensively, but the work/effort his puts in on defense makes up for that.

If he can get that 3 ball up to around 34% even that makes a significant difference on how you have to guard him

He has time in his side only being 23

But yeah I can see reduced mins in the playoffs
