And can out hustle any young players too he’s different this is why nuggets need to start him let him be point Russ Murray Porter jr Gordon Jokic that should be the line up
The NBA channel had the audacity to omit many of these Russ highlights. They clearly don’t want him to succeed bc it would tarnish Lebron’s precious reputation. Pathetic.
They did that when lebron wasn’t playing that’s the thing and they were good and ad was averaging 30+ then lebron came back and AD was out of most plays
NBA highlights didn’t want you to see Russ play. But Russ has always been a good defensive player but people don’t give him credit for his ability to poke and strip the ball or his ability to block shots and read the passing lanes better than anyone
@@OnTheSpotsilver he did shine before but people thought he was stat padding but one point on the rockets he kinda was but man I’m happy he on a good team but the rest of them needs to match Westbrook on defense he can’t do it all
@ yeah why is a 6th man out preforming most starters? If someone who doesn’t know basketball saw this game would think Russ is the number 2 player…and they would not be wrong!
Especially lakers in order to use Russ effectively it should have been a two man with AD abit not lebron having majority of the ball while AD and Russ at the three point line
With the clippers they had a winning record before they got harden but with lakers 😂 they don’t even know who the PG is like I still don’t know who they PG is lol
Russ my guy is laser focused on this team. But man, he just looks settled in on this team. He is so patient to settle for less touches but still has that aggression at that right times. Either coaching or the leadership from Joker and Murray or both have impacted this man. Great team win ❤
Literally had to come here because the NBA drop of the game highlights showed just 1 basket and I’m just like that’s odd, he had 21. The NBA literally does that to a lot of the Nuggets game; they literally want the average fan to think he’s done when he’s clearly not.
I just said the same thing, watching the highlights they only showed a couple Russ highlights, but he had 21-5-5. They doing that to keep Lebron James safe 💯
COMPARING RUSS & MURRAY - RUSS PLAYS CLEAN BASKETBALL, CHARGES LIKE A FLASH, HE IS NOT GLUED TO THE BALL TRYING TO SQUEEZE A POINT BY HIMSELF. +++ I'D SAY TO MURRAY - "WE DON'T NEED YOU TO SCORE, WE NEED TEAM TO SCORE. GIVE UP THE BALL TO THE PLAYER IN BETTER POSITION." +++ YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THAT TO RUSS... HE IS BALANCED, AND LIKES TO ASSIST, HE'S NOT FORCING THE BALL..
@@npcnate Russ has always played defensive but no one talks about he good he is at stripping the ball with his sneaky defense, blocking shots and in paint blocks, and he is the best at reading the passing lane. But nba don’t wanna talk about it. Only his triple doubles and what happened on the lakers
I am a very solid Denver Nuggets fan, there is a big problem with Jamal Murray on the floor. The ball gets stuck in his hands and he won’t give it up and he wants to play isolation ball and make the rest. The team stand and watch. this is not a winning strategy give the damn ball to the big guy and let him make the decisions and everybody move around him. That’s how you got a chip and yes, I know I know Jamal Murray made a couple of key baskets down the stretch however, it was the same thing you live or die with one guy you’re gonna die most the time give it to the big guy. and let him decide your fate?!
Westbrook literally willing the team to victory tonight.
Despite his age, Russ is still faster than much younger players.
Some people just caint b replaced
And can out hustle any young players too he’s different this is why nuggets need to start him let him be point
Russ
Murray
Porter jr
Gordon
Jokic that should be the line up
@@CashMNeyBraun instead of Porter I can agree
He never lost his step. It’s just they league fucked him 🛜
True
The NBA channel had the audacity to omit many of these Russ highlights. They clearly don’t want him to succeed bc it would tarnish Lebron’s precious reputation. Pathetic.
Nba show all his turnover and one or two of his buckets lol and here he had lot’s of steal too
Lebron the coward alomst destroyed Russ.
As much as i hate lebrons fans, its a little bit of a stretch but i can see why
yeah they've been doing this for most of his good games unfortunately
Facts 🔥🔥🔥
Huge impact for the game
Year 17 😮💨 Russ still a beast in 36
That dude's hard work is exemplary.
He's beginning to revert to his form in OKC, the MVP Russ
Nah this wizards Russ not quite at his peak but can put up a trip dub at any time
Start this man.
Supporting my guy from MONTRÉAL❤ go Russell , best pg ever
Westbrook should be a starter and finiisher that's how to use his greatness especially his assists and hypness/ energy it's a huge impact for Denver
Finisher yes, but not a starter. Let him 6th man it for momentum sake.
@@Agbahizzalbro no. Russ was the reason why we came back and sure as hell if russ started there wouldn't be down by 15+
This was a perfect team for Russ, amazing player.
Joker never played with a pass first guard n Russ haven’t played with this type of big in a long time this what him n AD should’ve been doing
They did that when lebron wasn’t playing that’s the thing and they were good and ad was averaging 30+ then lebron came back and AD was out of most plays
They did that when LeBron was out
AD and Russ played great together! I don’t blame Lebron for it not working but I blame him for getting all the blame put on Russ and Ham.
@@CashMNey that’s the lebron affect he couldn’t just fall in line
@@jasonhoppe781 plus AD was never available
Honestly i just wanna see this man
Russ and Jokic are literally perfect for each other
NBA highlights didn’t want you to see Russ play. But Russ has always been a good defensive player but people don’t give him credit for his ability to poke and strip the ball or his ability to block shots and read the passing lanes better than anyone
Exactly 🛜
With the right team he is ready and able to shine.
@@OnTheSpotsilver he did shine before but people thought he was stat padding but one point on the rockets he kinda was but man I’m happy he on a good team but the rest of them needs to match Westbrook on defense he can’t do it all

Is it just me or Westbrook playing better than ever? 6th man of the Year for sure.
impact player for 23 minutes straight as a 36 y.o LOL
russ is impactful as hell
Imagine pay 3 million for a player and he gives you 21 points lol
You hating?
@mishmishftw4319 no it's a steal.
@@mishmishftw4319that’s not hating 😂😂
Westbrook was a beast tonight
36 years old and he's out there making all the effort plays. First ballot hof
Russell Westbrook 🔥🔥
make him an ongoing starter already. damn, all he needed was some confidence and supportive teammates
Lakers and Clippers just didn’t know how to use him
Especially lakers in order to use Russ effectively it should have been a two man with AD abit not lebron having majority of the ball while AD and Russ at the three point line
With the clippers they had a winning record before they got harden but with lakers 😂 they don’t even know who the PG is like I still don’t know who they PG is lol
@CashMNey Lebron didn’t want to see Russ succeed, he did the same thing to Carmelo Anthony tried to ruin both of their careers.
Harder, better, faster, stronger
Damn he is so fast
He exposes slow motion of Murray's game.
Certainly better than some of the starters around the league
Lebron made everyone around him better except for a loooooooooopooooooooong list of good/great teammates including Russ. 😂
LeBron did make anything, he certainly maid around
Don’t forget melo, he tried to ruin both of their careers.
can't believe DeAndre still got it 🚀
Russ my guy is laser focused on this team. But man, he just looks settled in on this team. He is so patient to settle for less touches but still has that aggression at that right times.
Either coaching or the leadership from Joker and Murray or both have impacted this man. Great team win ❤
Russ doesn't rust😊
This team would be below 500 without Brodie

I'D SAY TO MURRAY - "WE DON'T NEED YOU TO SCORE,
WE NEED TEAM TO SCORE. GIVE UP THE BALL TO THE PLAYER IN BETTER POSITION."
+++
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THAT TO RUSS...
HE IS BALANCED, AND LIKES TO ASSIST, HE'S NOT FORCING THE BALL..
Extend contract already
Great to witness the Westbrook redemption.
Great Win !!! Russ is the best !!!
I noticed Nuggets always slow start and making explosion in 4th😄😄
Russell Westbrook Is Playing Better Than Lebron James. But They Won’t Talk About That 😂
This is the most decisive ive seen russ. He has rondo lvl iq right now

Westbrook the 🐐 plus he loc ♿
Another slow start Denver need to start Russ over Braun
Benching Braun doesn't make sense when he is playing well. The problem is other than Westbrook nobody on the team is bringing consistent energy.
Vintage wb he is back.
Good shit goat
Danger-Russ‼️
Extend the contract and pay him more for carrying this absolute disaster of a team
I think CB wouldn't mind for Russ to start

6MOY 😤😤😤
Don’t look like a vampire to me
Hall of Framer and the Joker🔥
🐐
Idol russ the turbo.
Dang DJ still flying?
Russ proper has good iq he know not to get a 3 second foul fr fr watch in start game
Personally i think he should aim for sixth man of thevyear, not a starter but definitely impactful
Go get some glasses and if you already have some get some better ones.
Denver getting a bargin for what they paying Russ and what he contributes
Start Russ and trade Murray to get away from that contract next year/as soon as possible
