Monday And-1 links: You could own a shirt like Westbrooks’

Here is our daily look around the NBA — links to stories worth reading and notes to check out (stuff that did not get its own post here at PBT) — done in bullet point form. Because bloggers love bullet points.

And as the son of a veteran, thanks to all of you serving our nation this Memorial Day.

• Russell Westbrook made a statement with his shirt worn to the post-game press conference Sunday night (see photo to the right). I’m not sure what that message was, it was a loud one. And a confusing one for sailors everywhere as it was just a mashup of maritime flags. But Darren Rovell tweets if you like it you can own it, stop by Urban Outfitters. I’m not sure why you would, but you can.

• Fun bit of speculation: If the Sixers decide to amnesty Elton Brand, they will make a run at Kris Humphries.

• Along those same lines, expect Lou Williams to opt out in Philly and test the market.

• The Bulls are expected to pick up the option on C.J. Watson for $3.7 million next season. You bet they are. That’s a good deal and Watson could play a big role at the start of the season when Derrick Rose is still recovering from knee surgery.

• By the way, the Bulls are thinking about moving their practice facility from the Chicago burbs into downtown.

• Kendrick Perkins doesn’t think Andrew Bynum has a smart game.

• The Hawks reportedly are trying to lure 2009 draft pick Sergiy Gladyr out of Spain to the NBA. He’s a shooting guard who has range, according to reports. (via Hoopshype.)

• A Miami television anchor called the 76ers the “69ers.” Bevis and Butthead thought it was funny.

• Great writing on Tim Duncan, well worth reading.

• Via Ball Don’t Lie, we leave you with Shaq in a Chinese beer commercial.
