I'm so happy for Westbrook. Makes me wonder how many great players are out there underperforming because their team isn't the best fit for their style of play.
Started watching NBA again because of Russ's success from the nay sayers. Nice little piece for Russ! When everyone plays into a system and not individually, systems work. Basketball is a team sport. Murray looks to be upping his game, Jokic no problem, Russ contributing, everyone on the Nuggets helping. Could be a great year for Denver.
I'm in Denver, but I have loved and watched Westbrook since OKC. I never doubted him like these fair-weather fans/glazers. He's always been the same player, but blame him, not LeBron. Blame him, not the dysfunction of the Clippers. When has Russ ever said he was 'bored', like Paul George just did? Russ' poor performance has always been a reflection of the management, coaching, and other players around him--he was a scapegoat in LA, Bron's was and still is running them into the ground before and after Russ was there.
Russ is gold. It took him 15 games to fit in. Now hes becoming an anchor, and starting to shape and lift the 2nd unit (aside from closing the gap in the 1st, when it happens, VERY successfully). If he continues like this - he might become the #1 reason DEN contends and/or wins another title. If some of his grit/confidence/competitiveness infects Strawther and Watson... DEN will have a rotation for a deep run/win. If Strawther gets better on D and Watson figures out how to make MORE use of his VERY good middy (10-13ft - just hunting/finding spots, separation and confidence)... that 2nd unit will be very dangerous. RW+PWat+JS+DJ+ stagger piece (murray/mpj/gordon)... Uf...
What people forget to mention. Russ in LA is exactly what a toxic workplace looks like. He was put there to be the scapegoat, in a situation that did not fit his playstyle at all. With another ball dominant player like LeBron... Russ in LA was the Lakers inability build a team that makes sense. They mindlessly followed the cry of LeBron James who is constantly asking for more superstar players ...
He was not a good fit on the Lakers. He was fine with the Clippers. Clippers are not smart. They would rather give Kawhi $51 million instead of $5 million to Westbrook. Glad he is happy and has found a home to finish out his career.
I m done with Westbrook, He is one person that works hard, but in LA people like Lebron made him look like a clown. nothing but love for my former MVP Russ
Bro he’s a future Hall of Famer who accepted a vet MINIMUM contract and was supposed to come off the bench! With Jamal and AG missing games and playing hobbled, Russ fit right in to the starting lineup and elevated this team to help keep it in contention. He has already gone far and above his expected role and outperformed expectations! Brodie is adored and appreciated here in Denver and he don’t owe us a gd thing more but i hope we can get him a ring, this season or next!
Nothing but love for Russ here in Denver! We gotta win this man a chip! 4️⃣⚒️🏆

I apologize to Westbrook. i was a huge critic. He’s looking awesome.
Soo 13 points is awesome 😂 worse then lakers and clippers years. 3.5 TOs is awesome? 😂

Not fans! His fans took up for him!
pick and roll and fundamental basketball is fun to watch
Skip - "he's more trouble than he's worth"
I've felt that way about skip for more than a decay
SKIP is such a fool is he ever right it is sad that he has no JOY in his life to put a SMILE on his face
👍👍👍👍👍👍
To win the title, Denver needs a trio that works like clockwork, Joker, Murray and Russell, then they are unstoppable!
Definitely put him in the starting rotation, he deserves it
Over who 😂 they got a pg and one that dousnt get 3.5 TOs 😂 shit gonna double if he starts

Man russ aint ever been selfish
Ya be forgetting he the best point guard in the league tbh
So the best pg is coming off the bench and only giving you 13 😂 i bet your top 5 list is dog shit
As soon as he said “him” I started fast forwarding lol
Braun hasn't missed time. You're thinking of Gordon...
He was not a good fit on the Lakers. He was fine with the Clippers. Clippers are not smart. They would rather give Kawhi $51 million instead of $5 million to Westbrook. Glad he is happy and has found a home to finish out his career.
Selfish, check his fing assist records!!! Joker is Adams 10.0
I m done with Westbrook, He is one person that works hard, but in LA people like Lebron made him look like a clown. nothing but love for my former MVP Russ
Hell no Until he win Win a champion He will not accomplish nothing
Cap 😂 bro scoring 13 and i guess thats fi e at his age. But 3.5 TOs on an offense where ur not tge ball handler is crazy 😂
Naaaahhh... Too early for this.. Let us see the playoffs Westbrook if this will work.
