    Agh stats don't tell everything, the majority of the players, coaches and GM in the NBA or were ever in the NBA will tell you that. We thumped them the same reason that we thumped everybody else in the West...we were bigger, more physical and had the perfect small ball foil. Anthony Davis, we could play small ball and stay big.

    So..these other teams that suffered the exact same fate in the West against us was due to one player too? You seem to be obsessed with proving that is all about Westbrook for some reason. Fwiw That dude played that series with a torn quad, he missed a bunch of bubble games and came back for the last 3 games against OKC. Not that it would have made a difference if he was 100%. They didn't have a chance to beat us in that series regardless.

    Can Russ do any wrong in your mind?

    See again you are are stuck on Westbrook. He's the the 3rd wheel on this team, I'm way more concerned about AD. The Franchise player...I don't have a problem chatting about Russ though. I got to see a lot of him in Houston.

    Oh...forgot that this is the Westbrook thread.lol..so yeah on that note...

    1.His FT% sucks for a PG to me.
    2. I would like to see his FG% go up to at least around 45%
    3. His TO are at the lowest in about 7 seasons, but I would like to see them down a lil more.
    4. I wish that he was less passive when he's playing with Lebron, and take the rock and make Lebron be the finisher more often.

    He's not a 47 million dollar player, but he didn't get that contract in LA. I definitely wouldn't mind bringing him back on a cheaper deal tho. I just think that,he's still a better player than you do.

    Russ makes me hurl at least a few times a game with his brain dead mistakes.

    dont want him back unless its mle or less....his gm just does not mesh with winning ball, poor offball defender and his TO and shot selection iq would suggest hes been in league just few yrs as oppose to a decade. Id rather have a true 3/d type guy at pg with decent abilities to run an offense. Brick just out there cause hes still quite athletic but as long as opposing team can force ours into halfcourt, brick seems to shrink

    Which fake stats are these? We shot 51% from the field for the series and outrebounded the Rockets by over 60 boards. It's simply ridiculous to pin that series on that dude. It should have been a sweep.

    Bron will get to be reminded of his mistake all the time since Russ bought the house across the street back earlier this year. The blurb is from Mansion Global, I couldn’t get the link to go to this particular article.


    Russell Westbrook, point guard for the Los Angeles Lakers, has just dropped $37 million on a lavish new home in the city’s Brentwood neighborhood, directly across the street from his teammate LeBron James, Mansion Global has learned.

    Mr. Westbrook, 33, quietly bought the property in an off-market deal from Formula 1 racing heiress Petra Ecclestone.

    You should be busier concentrating on yourself.

    I don't need to be referenced anything by you.

    I don't like you or your posts.

    What I said is a statement of fact. Look through his posts. It isn't demeaning. It's just truth.

    Now, leave me alone.

    The game evolved quite a bit over Russ' career. Can't say the same for Russ
