When asked who’s the most like him, Kobe said “Westbrook plays with the same aggression I did.” And that’s when Russ became my new favorite player in the league. I got Row B (practically courtside) center court seats for the Clippers-Blazers game tomorrow.

@streetballph2043 Жыл бұрын

He is still Westbrick!!!! I know it's not easy to do but I think if Giannis or Lebron or Curry could fantasize about their stats they could do it too but Westbrick thinks that it's his way to say that I can't win but atleast I get a trip double season. That is so not the essence of basketball, especially team basketball.

Kevin Durant pulled the softest move by a superstar ever by leaving OKC FOR GS. Had he left to another team it would be understandable, but to leave to the team that whipped you after being up 3-1 is embarrassing

@juusan8078 Жыл бұрын

I seriously thought that if he’ll leave OKC, he’ll join the Spurs coz they were second seed and proven that they can match with GS.

@ericfranklin1802 11 ай бұрын

Indeed, and one could argue that if that foul gets called on Draymond for kicking Adams in the junk (which it did when he did the same thing in the finals) OKC likely makes it back to the finals.

Nah guys blame him for everything and every teams he’s been on. Idk, it’s crazy how everyone loved him in 2017 and instantly hated him the minute KD won a ring with Steph. The narrative changed from KD being weak to it was all Russ fault even when KD said the team never build around him and Russ which is true. Those OKC teams when Harden left were trash.

I never cared about Westbrook and never paid attention to him until he started sucking in LA and became became instant basketball comedy. His airballs, top of the backboard shots, and stupid turnovers are far more entertaining to watch for me than when he was actually a non-negative player on the court as a meathead super athlete. They're just typical bad plays, but when Westbrook does them it's way funnier because he moves so fast it adds a slapstick element of comedy.
