Russell Westbrick Discussion: Clipper Gonna Clip

omg this is ridiculous. last year's team was way better, and the westbrook trade is the reason why. you're just wrong. deal with it.

 

Refute what I posted. Last years team accomplished what exactly?

 

ox already did it. you ignored it, per usual.

 

Refresh my memory. Let me repost what I said, so you can go in detail why it's wrong

Bs..you come right out the gate with a disingenuous take. Lebron and AD played in 23 of the first 35 games last season. James played in 41 put of the 1st 42. That is nothing like this season period. Spin that tale however you like. It is not the same scenario. The MLE a double digit scorer expected to start, didn't play a single game all season. What was the similar situation last season? Yeah Lebron played in 62.5 % of the games in 21. He played in 68% in 22. AD 50% in 21 let's call it 50% in 22. However Lebron and AD played together in 38% of the games in 21. 25% in 22. Let's just go ahead and discount the fact that the 21 team returned a core that just won a chip, and added two 6th man of the year players and the great Marc Gasol. They didn't lose any other significant player in the rotation for a full season in addition to missing James and Davis. This team started out with almost an entirely new roster, minus players expected to be in the rotation besides James and Davis. That s*** wasn't all on Westbrook, no matter how you try to frame it dude.

Or those numbers incorrect? Did Nunn play? What player missed the entire season last year in a similar fashion? Last year's team was a lot better in the beginning of the season. Then AD went down, followed by Lebron. They didn't look soo good afterwards did they? How is it irrelevant now?

 

because you're picking and choosing parts of the season, which is dumb?

 

Agh..you couldn't refute what I posted with anything, so I cherry picked parts of the season. I just made up when James and Davis were out, in order to support my position. Check..duly noted.

Deep is when you read a @Slick2021 post page after page.

I'm just in awe.



Waits for generic reply

 

Isn't that the rapper kid that got murdered in LA? He used to be at the Lakers games a lot.

Cut out the middleman or something like that was his mantra.

 

Yet another example of Jeanie’s ineptitude: she saw how the Jim/Mitch situation played out first hand and yet didn’t learn a thing from it. She’s just backed Rob into a corner, almost forcing him to take a bad deal for Westbrick.
Or was it the Rambii who made the call?
Whoever did, it was the wrong one, letting him know that he’s on the hot seat.

 

fify

33-49 (no playoffs) vs 42-30 (playoffs), AD and lebron played more games this year than last. same coach (same one as when we won a title, too). dramatically different supporting cast (westbrook instead of 5 capable role players making mid-tier money). failure.

 

Oh yeah this guy's definitely going to be starting the season in purple and gold again. LMAO. Greatest, not good, riddance.

EDIT .... sounds like that was a tribute to his murdered friend so props for that. But it personifies how Brick sees himself in his alternate universe bubble in basketball now with his game, ignoring, no ... Jedi mind tricking himself that he didn't play 3/4 of the season with brain farts, bricks galore, blown layups, zero interest in team or much defense at all .... and his coaches be damned, I'm Russ Westbrook attitude.

 

Yes, it was Neighborhood Nip aka Ermias Asghedom

There's more interviews from him where he articulates himself much more clearly.

Very gifted.

He and Westbrook were friends

 

The caption on that IG post is “1 of 1.”

I pray that is referring to him only having 1 season as a Laker

 

Correct.

 

wonder what it's like to be so up your own a**? there's lots of healthy space between being hyper reactive to others' opinions and being completely dismissive of them.

 

A quick Google search would have probably explained that IG post. Some of our fans are jack offs too I see.
