Russell Westbrick Discussion: Clipper Gonna Clip

At least then there were kids who we hoped/ thought/ talked ourselves into being winning lottery tickets.

Russ was a bad fit before the plane landed.

 

I'll never feel like he was ever a Laker tbh

 

I dunno, the boron - damfony - mozdung - the lush era was a especially horrible time.

 

Clutch

 

Kawhi's reaction might be my favorite

 

i know we're going to go 0-4 again vs the clips with every game a "see, let russ be russ" headline, but man, it's so hard to win if he's on the floor in crucial moments.

 

Logan Roy said it best

Spoiler: If you know... you know

 

We got no one to stay with him tonight hope he’s in bricking form. We need our whole squad healthy to even have a shot including Vando and Rui playing well.

 

Probably goes off for a triple double lol

or we pack the paint and dare him to shoot from outside unguarded to mess with him

 

So glad we’re on the other side of Westbrook’s bone headed plays.

Those backdoor cuts and that dumb foul in OT would have sent me

 

"tough time"

aside from russ being a terrible fit from day one, he's really got no one but himself to blame for how terrible his lakers tenure was. the boneheaded mistakes, turnovers, shots that almost sailed over the backboard, i could go on and on

but somehow that's the lakers fault and not the guy who was actually playing like complete s***

 

In his BB heart of hearts Lue has to know this and be on pins and needles every game if close in crunch time when Russ is being Russ. Just the ******* same as we fans here were.

 

Lebron can play some totally disrespectful defense if he think he's got you locked up. Reminds me of what he did to Barnes in the NBA finals dared him to shoot more and more after locking him up early in the season.

This one he's not even bothering to square up on Westbrook and looks like he baiting him to drive so can go for the block

 

Look how deep in the defense key LeBron was playing Russ when he was on the 3 point line, knowing the %s and daring him to shoot. Looked like 2020 all over again. Everyone was. No one's going to break their neck closing out on him, whether he shoots decently from 3 one game or not. The odds are always pack the key and let him shoot.

 

Brick in loss to NO at Crypto: 14 mins: 3/4/2 on 1 for 8 shooting.

I'll just leave it at that.

 

NOW Russ is being Russ.
