The Miami Heat is willing to offer three of its players and their first chance of draft pick next year just to get Russell Westbrook from the Oklahoma City Thunder team.

The three players Miami is willing to let go are Goran Dragic, Josh Richardson and Justise Winslow, according to Sports Rageous. The Heat is still reeling from the loss of its vaunted guard, Dwyane Wade to the Chicago Bulls. Team president Pat Riley lost no time in signing up new recruits like Derrick Williams from the New York Knicks, James Johnson from the Toronto Raptors and Luke Babbitt from the New Orleans Pelicans.

The Miami Heat however, is keen in acquiring Russell Westbrook from the Oklahoma City Thunder. However, Riley would have to present a very attractive offer to the Thunders. For one Westbrook, the Heat would give three of its own to the Thunders. Miami is also willing to give up its first dibs on next year's draft.

Such negotiations, is meaningless unless, Chris Bosh leaves Miami. His departure will enable Riley to accede with Westbrook's salary demand. Both the Miami Heat and Oklahoma Thunders are in the midst of rebuilding their teams after losing some of their valuable players in the ongoing trades. Perhaps the two could help each other improve their chances of winning in the upcoming season.

The Oklahoma Thunder also has its reasons for making such trade. Westbrook has already said that he wants to be a free agent by 2017. They had reason to believe that Russell is going to leave them anyway by that time.

The Thunder also believed that Kevin Durant would someday come back to them. Their former forward player left the team to sign up with the Golden State Warriors. Westbrook is also a very talented player and there is a chance that other teams can give better trade offers.
