His only bad iq thing is he shoots when he doesn’t need to shoot. That is literally the only bad iq thing he does. He makes good passes. He also plays nice not great but nice defense. He can score if he wants.

You can see from the commentators the praise* he used to get for playing HIS game. He did what his team needed, they went to multiple WCF and a NBA finals. Even after Harden got traded they still could’ve won a title, let’s be honest... injured to their stars is what did them in... after the last game 7 heartbreak KD called it quits. Westbrook was just the easy scapegoat for being loyal. His relentless attitude and force along with his athleticism and improvement in skill and passing was one of the main things moving that young team up “When the playoffs come you know Westbrook will perform”
