@H DG you sound stupid! Russ in OKC KD days was unstoppable! I use to hate when my team played them in the playoffs! You knew Russ was getting his triple double and 30+ points, KD was always getting his, Serge did his thing and Adam's did his thing in the post! They balled out. They had a good squad back when but they just never made it to that level. Because you had to get past Golden State and that's no easy task by no means. Then you would have a Lebron, Love and Irving led team that dominated the east. So competition was heavy. I mean Russell fell off and sucks now but back then he didn't. I'll give him that.
Where was Russell trust when you need him in 2014,2015, and 2016... when Katie had to take over the team when he was on his injury? Remember Russell was not the only one who had to carry the team it was also KD so you don't get the Judgment of back-and-forth tried his best to carry a team
