He failed to adapt with superstar players!! He’s hard headed!! And low key KD was the first to see it and bounce!!
Bruh how he suppose to adapt when Bron and AD are never on the floor fool
@@shanmusic161 Your missing the point. Over the years, his game has not evolved and still thinks he can win the championship single handedly...Even more so playing with Bron and AD, that he needs to learn how to adapt his game
@@MrMarkwill62they were slowly figuring it out before the all star break than AD soft ass got hurt and missed weeks due to a measily sprained foot a SPRAINED FOOT dude is softer than a teddy bear.
@Cwavy_619 Bruh fuck that. Anybody in russ postition last yr woulda struggled.
Casual
Its like watching Allen Iverson 2.0. A superstar MVP who could not adapt to his later years and provide winning basketball. Egos are too damn big, sad
The Knicks would still take him tho 😂😂😂😂
@@mikeyjames probably but on the Vet Minimum tho 😅
He could and did, he just refused to come off the bench when he started declining and decided to not show up and got cut.
18 7 7 is not declining. Playing with LBJ is declining. You get all the blame and no credit. AD missed half the season but gets a pass. He’s definitely declining
@@raremoney3062 lebron didn’t even play a whole lot last season and Russ played more games than anyone else on the team and he still didn’t carry
You're preaching nothing but straight facts. When you really think about it, Russell Westbrook has had so many opportunities by playing with Kevin Durant, James Harden (twice), Bradley Beal, Anthony Davis and LeBron James and he's failed with all of them. Him being out of the league by next season is a real thing when he's shown that his game needs to be predicated to him and his numbers because he can't work with any other star and is too delusional to be told to change otherwise.
He’s a HOFer. He won’t be out the league anytime soon.
@@El.Nigga. he is lol he can only be a 1st option on a rebuilding/mid team he doesn’t help any contenders if fact he makes them worst
He won't be out the league because some downtrodden team will look to pick him up so can fill some teams and make some highlights for their social media team. But if he demands a crazy contract and pushes too hard his remaining time might be short.
Why do you ignore context lol. KD and Russ were a title contending duo every season they were healthy as a team. 2012 made finals, 2014 lost to Champion Spurs, 2016 beat 67 win Spurs and took a historic 73 win to 7. Him and Beal missed over 15 games each. Lost their center early in the season and still with that ass roster made playoffs. Him and Harden made history with being the highest scoring duo and Russ quad literally fell off. Yes he was washed with Lakers I'll admit but the two best players missed half the season. Harden and CP3 played with many great teammates and haven't won. KD only won with a super team and got swept with a healthy Kyrie. Kyrie has yet to do anything without Bron but only Russ had opportunities I guess lmfao
@@sayitaintsocuh8184 Post KD he hasn’t done anything in the playoffs. He got outplayed by rookie Donovan Mitchell and got punked by dame the next year. He doesn’t play winning basketball. The reason it worked okay with KD is cos KD is a once in a generation star player whose efficient and doesn’t need the ball to be effective once KD left and it was Russ’s team he couldn’t get out of the first round.
The OKC trio is going to make the most interesting documentary in history the way it's shaping out. Russ, 3 teams in 4 years. Harden 2 teams in 2 years. And we all know about KD....
Harden has been on 3 teams in 3 years, actually.
@@thareelhelloagain Totally right.
Swishout predicted the future!!!
Actually he didn't. He looks like a fool now
As a Lakers fan i wished for his success despite acknowledging the teams hes been on having a tendency to just fall apart... its his attitude towards criticism that makes me think it just wont work out. If you think you are not partially at fault for sloppy play... You can't improve!
and thianisnwhybthe fans want him gone
What everyone is thinking 🤔 my brother…thank u
I can hear the groupies saying it's not Russ fault he use to average a triple double
Did the wizards fall apart or did they make the playoffs with Russ? How about OKC after KD left , were they in the playoffs or falling apart?
@@12savage68 And how effective were they in the playoffs when a team effort was needed? Regular season is one thing but a series is another! No disrespect intended, but i can not ignore habits and repetitive trends!
I've been telling my friend this everytime we have a conversation about Russ;
The worst thing to happen to his career was him winning MVP. Because it validated his play style. Made him believe that his way is the right way. Why? Cos he won MVP doing that sht. But fast forward to now, he's likely to get traded to his 5th team in 5yrs.
You do know the teams he played for didn’t just trade him he demanded a trade from them stop running with media narratives
His mvp season is one of the greatest season of all time he earned and deserved it
Yeah westbrick groupies worship the house Russ built with his bricks
@@morijin9552 Just because he asked for a trade, doesn’t mean the teams he was on was productive. The last team he was productive on was the last season on OKC with Durant and his season with KD and Harden. When your greatest achievement was long ago, maybe you should start questioning why he hasn’t seen success instead of knit picking whether he demanded a trade or was traded by the team.
The year Russ won the MVP they should have given it to Kawhi He improved his game, was a more complete player and his team was at the top of the western confrence. The NBA and sportsmedia never found Kawhi sexy to market so it went to mr. Triple double. Sad.
I’ve never been a fan of Russ on the court. Off the court I’ve always appreciated his character but as a player I always hated his game and how he took criticism.
This is coming from a Rose/Bulls fan’s perspective and at one point Russ and Rose were constantly compared so seeing Rose’s career pan out how it has and still be so humble yet seeing Russ do what he has just burns me even more..
Ofc rose has no choice but to be humble he’s washed be realistic 😂
@@morijin9552 no,rose learned to adapt and changed his playstyle to fit in modern nba while russ is still doing his thing and it exposes him more
@@jmandan8728 I love rose but he’s washed my guy
@@morijin9552 right now probably yeah but back in 2017 he was on a verge to be out of the nba then he changed his playstyle and rehabilitate his career for 5 more years.
@@morijin9552 Now?It's always been the problem,ask kd.
It is gonna be crazy seeing Russell Westbrook and Patricky Beverley on the same squad this year.
Russell has no one to blame but himself. A serial playoff choker and one of the most stubborn athletes of all time
Hell no ur totally wrong. In OKC Russ was the only one who showed up PG and Melo choked. Not to mention Harden worse. Lakers bro AD was always hurt and Bron missed key stretches.
@@shanmusic161 never made it out the 1st round as a 1st option. Shot under 40 percent in 4 out of 5 years in the playoffs
@@colewrld901 wasn't his fault bro. PG and Melo choked hard asf. Russ gave it his all can't ask anything less. In Hous he was hurt and had covid. DC had no chance vs that first seed. So fuck that shit. Id rather ship street clothes davis.
@@shanmusic161 It's not his fault he shot under 40%? Bro you are delusional as your boy Westbrick is
@@shanmusic161 dame owns russ
Bro actually predicted the Brodie to Utah trade in his thumbnail for this vid xD
He’s having the same ending as AI. He has to accept to play a different role if he wants to play longer in the league.
Don’t compare him to Iverson , ivo actually lead a trash team to the finals , KD lead his trash ass to the finals along with Perkins and harden
@@andresdelportillo9917 sure but the ego is the samw
Ai was a winner and never had a superteam like russ, or even the caliber players russ played with. If AI had these stars he would have at least 4 rings!
@@keshon79 denver was pretty good
@@anubis4032 Iverson and Melo in at any time of their career wouldn't fit besides current melo
He’s lasted 15 years in a league where the average lifespan is like 5-6 years. He won MVP 9 years in & averaged a TD 4 of the last 6 seasons.
And yet he still is looked down upon for very obvious reasons. No one is denying how insane his numbers were, but it’s hard to justify rooting for Russ when he clearly doesn’t want to change for the better
@@Shortorderboy1048 so wat? u act like u a fan of his or da coach or sum jus sit bacc Nd watch basketball
@@ericwilson1185 I wanna see him make an impact and play well bro that’s all but he isn’t gonna do that if he doesn’t figure his issues out
@@ericwilson1185 you sound ridiculous
There is no coach that could fix Russ's turnovers with him on the court. I'm fairly certain, that Greg Poppovich would bench him quite a bit.
As a spurs fan all my life I can confirm Pop would bench his ass. His high and ridiculous turnovers would have Pop pissed! Remember not just anyone can be a Spur! Definition of team ball, and Russ absolutely needs the ball in his hands.
@@iansosickk da Spurs suck now u chatten nigga
That clip about Russ calling that basketball his friend gave me second hand embarrassment
If it really was his friend you'd think he'd spend an offseason with a shooting coach and a gym fixing his erratic jumper. You know its just his ego keeping him from doing this. He has the money, he has the resources. He just doesnt want to and its gonna cost him the rest of his career.
Russell Westbrook is extremely talented and he was the most consistent offensive player on that team last season. It's too bad that he does not have a team mentality. He could make such a huge difference on any team if he did not insist on having the ball in his hand ALL the time.
Bron averaged 30 on 62% TS but yeah the guy who averaged 18 on 51% Ts and was bricking shots off the backboard was the most consistent, dont even bring up assists either, bron averaged 6.2 and russ averaged 7.1. Russ has to have the ball in his hands all the time because he is dogshit at everything else, bad defender, terrible shooter. He wont work with the Lakers no matter what and it was one of the worst trades of all time
What he hell😂😂
Trying to bring. Up that trade value
you see the type of player he is, he is amazing with the ball, but not good without it. he just doesn’t fit on the lakers and he doesn’t fit with lebron. that’s not a dig at him but at the lakers front office
yeah he was the most consistent, consistently bad
Keep grinding swish.
you too bro!
Swishout u must can tell the future Westbrook is now in Utah
Hope no one says he gives 100 percent anymore. He doesn't cut off ball or play defense. Doesn't box out and only gets his boards if his teammates box out for him
Man I thought he already got dealt to Utah😭
Yeah me too goddamn clickbait 😅
Eff this dude
😭
Im not feeling the disrespect toward utah with that thumbnail, as if utah isnt 5th overall for wins in league history and have hardly ever missed the playoffs. Besides, no one wants westbrick utah for sure doesn't and he sure as hell would refuse to suit up for the jazz, all he hears over there is " all kinds of n words" usually after or during enduring an upsetting defeat, conveniently enough
@@HashCracker nobody gives a fuck about respecting Utah if any other team did the same as them they would be treated the same way
Always nice when Swish uploads!🔥
I love Russ as a player but he is the definition of hard headed. If he had the mindset of a Al horford or Ray Allen where they sacrificed ball time and adjust their game to win, he would be wanted more and probably could have a longer career. But he doesn’t want to change, so it’s going down the ending path
No, nobody asks him to be an Al Horford but he definetly cant be russ anymore
Give me one off-ball skill that Russ is good-great at and please don't say defense because he's tragic on that end.
@@lubo1358 I mean there is no physical capability Marcus Smart has that Russ doesn't, so theoretically he should be able to be a good defender. (Should is doing a lot of heavy lifting here)
@@josephmckenney-barschall864 Well he also has no real disadvantages over Curry either so he might as well become the best shooter on the planet.
@@lubo1358 I mean co ordination is a physical element, and given his finishing, that might be an issue, meanwhile, people can go from being a cone to being vaguely acceptable on defense in an off season.
A coach told me years ago when I asked him about Westbrooks future… and he said Westbrook will never win a championship cause he can’t shoot or handle the ball or make winning decisions he’s been getting awarded for his hype and his athleticism and passion that’s it! You can’t be 6’3 in the league in todays game and can’t shoot ! Let alone any era he can’t handle the ball well enough and is the ultimate wild card driving to the paint , smfhh he did this to himself no one else
Sir, you put work n into this video n it shows. Not just saying stuff but showing numbers and facts to back up your statements. Never felt like just slander. Looking forward to your work going forward.
Liked, Subbed, comment for the gods of algorithm.
This era's Iverson. A sad but ultimately inevitable end.
Bruh the organization failed Iverson, Westbrook was just a stat padder, I’m assuming ur a kid
@@Ray-rh1zq First of all, you assume wrong. It may be an easy way to dismiss what I'm talking about but that's just a way of obscuring the truth and retaining your own confirmation bias. Please refrain from things like that in the future.
Remember that Iverson had an opportunity in Denver to be a more accommodating star alongside Carmelo Anthony. Then again as a member of the Pistons afterwards. It was his incompatibility with those two situations that ended up leaving him with very little options. His rant about coming off the bench was during that time.
Ultimately, towards the end of the off-season, only Memphis decided to give him a chance to be a spark plug off the bench and that only lasted three games before he didn't want to do that anymore. And then once no other team wanted him he announced his retirement.
It's easy to forget when you focus purely on his Sixers days and forget the situation that led to him retiring early to cover up the disgrace of being essentially out of the NBA due to his attitude, diminished effectiveness on the floor, and his refusal adjust any of those things in order to be a better team contributor.
The Iverson/Westbrook comparison makes so much sense. Both guys refused to change their play style to fit the team needs in the later parts of their careers and it seems like Russ’ career will end the same way Iverson’s did.
Wow that coaching observation was so well thought out! Banger video
This video aged well
Westbrook is the most flawed mvp ive ever seen in recent years. And its so frustrating too because he has all that talent but doesnt know how to use it effectively.
To be fair his mvp season wasn’t flawed. But yeah.. if he took 10-15% of that energy on offense and put it to defense.. he’d probably be one of the better defenders in the league
These players are too much too often always treated like they'll figure it out later on and alot more times then not they don't and they have a blindspot to obvious flaws.Russ has a terrible basketball iq he always looks like a million things are going on in his mind all at once
What talent? Unless athleticism= talent
@@diatribeeverything i think you're mistaking talent and skill, talent is something your born with like athleticism. Unless im wrong
@@diatribeeverything Athleticism is talent. Also he's in the NBA dude. It's not all athletics.
Only he could save himself, watch the game films more, practice harder, and fixing his mistakes
He had all last season the 10 to 20 games to improve in LA to truly fix himself but he didn’t but hopefully he can swallow his pride and consider changing
Kemba went from all star to udonis haslem role in 3 yrs,
IT went from all nba to out the league in 5 years
Blake Griffin a bench warmer after making an all nba team 3 years ago
It ain’t crazy to say Russ may be on that same path
Stop plottin on dat man downfall
All those guys you just named declined because of injuries, I don't think Russ is in the same boat as them
Saw Russ’ falloff coming from a mile away. He was never a skilled finisher, he could just jump above defenders. Slasher with no floater, was an okay shooter but started body building and lost his shot. He has always been a bad defender, but before his athleticism could kind of compensate for it, but now that that’s gone his bad finishing and bad defense are exposed. Those quad injuries really did him in. He can’t get to the rim as easily, doesn’t generate the same amount of rim pressure.
😂😂😂
Buh dunked on gobert crazy last SZN buh his athleticism fallen off.. jus say u don’t like him cause u don’t like his attitude soft nigga
People always try to defend Westbrook by saying his counting stats look good and it pisses me off. They're the epitome of using stats without context. He is extremely inefficient, he ruins a team's spacing, he makes too many costly mistakes on offense and is a traffic cone on defense. If you don't play Westbrook in a specific role like the Rockets did in the 2nd half of the 2019-2020 regular season before he got injured, Westbrook is impossible to win with. The Lakers absolutely don't have the personnel to do that and Westbrook is too washed to replicate that.
Soft nigga
*alright man* banger video already
my favorite youtuber! great video man
As a Russ fan it’s sad seeing him in this situation after all his achievements. Like that game against the warriors where he was trash-talking KD was one of the most satisfying games I’ve ever watched. It would just be a win if he can have a good next season.
I’m not necessarily a Russ fan but I love how he plays his heart out but last year was so bad for him morally he took people talking about his play on the court as shots towards his character which no one was talking about
What Achievements ?? he's one of the most Delusional and Inefficient player Ever.
Another westbrick fanboy😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@dboii9741 Another westbrick fanboy
@@juliusperseus8612 you can say the same thing about Allen Iverson but they both still top 75. The only argument against that is Iverson carrying his team to the finals one year but that was one of the weakest eastern conference. Russ’ conference was strong every year he made the playoffs.
Lakers: We have to let Russ be Russ 🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
Rest of league: absolutely 😎👍👌
Can't feel sad for somebody made 100s of millions having fun. His life is great
I love Westbrook but KD basically tried to tell us years before … I could see it from years ago but I thought he could adapt and play WINNING basketball … he’ll be remembered as a an elected talent but he can’t win with superstars so it looks real bad now because he’s been found out now
damn that thumbnail was right on the money lol
Damn that thumbnail is crazy bro
Great vid Bro! Just found you and subbed..
Russ can play another 5-6 years in a Jason Terry type 6th man role. At this point hin his career, I wouldn't start him under any circumstances
russ’ downfall is pretty much exactly similar to the downfall of allen iverson.
in their primes both were some of the most electrifying and exciting players to watch ever. they also had that one standout year where everything seemed to work out for them, 2001 for ai and 2017 for russ. but aside from that, the little team success they saw ultimately led to their careers petering out despite them still putting up amazing numbers as individuals.
both guys refused to adapt their game as the league progressed and as their bodies broke down and ultimately they got left behind. iverson played his last year in the nba at age 34, russ is going to be 34 this upcoming year.
the similarities are almost scary.
Russ is not in his prime any more what are yall on about 😂😂 his last prime year was 2017-18 season
Westbrook is back
Thank you for pointing out the Wizards season. I’m a Wizards fan who was not at all surprised by what Westbrook was doing in LA and people thought I was trippin lol
He plays in a league where guards are supposed to be able shoot, he doesn't even defend when he has the athleticism to do so, he scores 25pts on 25 shots and commits at least 1 turnovers every quarter he plays and doesn't take accountability for his flaws, is anyone really surprised by how things are ending up for him?
It’s sad to see but I’m glad to have witnessed greatness and historic numbers!!!
Was a fan of Westbrook but gotta feel for the man. Went from one of the best and most loved PG’s in the league to someone hated and atrocious
He got 23,000 points 😂
Hard to feel bad for the man who made $44,000,000 last year stinking up the joint.
I don't wish him harm or ill will but he is fair game to criticize at every point especially when he hasn't improved ever.
Most loved? sure why not Best? hell no
“russ was always hyper athletic, low iq, sub par jumpshot, great freethrow shooting, guard” the way yu said that had me rolln😭😭
And he was 🤣
I had no clue he was already so turnover prone! "Same guy, different jersey" had not come to my mind. Great insight!
The fact that the Lakers had to cap themselves in the head to get Russ, and are going to have to cap themselves in the head again just to get rid of him doesn't bode well for this franchise. It would take some absolutely brilliant moves and finessing to turn their rebuild around in just a few seasons.
😭
Only way they can turn it around is to trade AD and Bron While they still have value and tbh they should've done it this off season. Letting LeBron hijack the team will set them back to at least 2029, it might get uglier than then post achilles injury Kobe teams.
@@xDreMack I agree lakers next 10 years are gonna be dismal you think they’re bad now wait till lebron leaves
His mentality is the issue. Early in the season his attitude towards his turnover and how he is cool with not winning the championship is toxic AF. Like dude, this is literally your best chance at winning at this stage of your career and you dont give AF?
Russ’ lack of disciple and poise on the court is absolutely insane for someone who’s been in the league this long and has so much playoff experience. I never considered how much lack of coaching played into that but I think you’re onto something.
I saw this when KD was there and people always called me a hater. I said he was inefficient and clogs the paint with his lack of a jumpshot. I always pointed out turnovers and people said it was a 2:1 assist ratio but the problem is when it’s in volume. If you average 5 or 6 assists and around 2 I can deal if that’s over 30 minutes. This isn’t new. We are just seeing it for the millionth time and since it’s with lebron he isn’t given a pass. He’s a mix of Ben Simmons and steph curry for shooting and finishing. Ben Simmons ability with curry tendencies.
Its actually way overdue he gets called out, hopefully he'll be remembered how to cheat triple doubles and pretend to be a superstar
Don’t make sense about Westbrook not having a coach he never trusted…..The problem with Westbrook is he always had coaches who allowed him to do what ever he wanted…..By not having a coach to hold him accountable for his turnovers bad shots he takes has hurt him..
He is just like Allen Iverson stat padding gives you awesome numbers. But when gotten older and required to play more as a teamplayer, they suck and can't adapt.
thanks for saying it. russ has. never. changed.hes always been this guy.
This is precisely the correlation between IQ and Longevity. All the physically gifted players who lacked in High IQ typically never had a good end to their careers. Players like Luka, Jokic will last longer than say a Giannis. That's why it's incredible for the World to have been gifted with LeBron James. Highly talented in Both Having a High IQ (best ever) and being a freak athlete. Such players come once in a Century.
What do y'all think? 💭🤔
Westbrook's selfishness and arrogance is one of the reasons he's going out sad.
You make a really good point about Kobe’s post Shaq years.
This was good one
Honestly I stopped liking Westbrook after their finals loss. I saw his refusal to change or evolve his game. I said it then and say it now if he played like a true point guard he would have been better than he is now.
I take umbrage with the idea that 2022 Russ is the same Russ as previous seasons. His usage rate is down, and his decision-making is at an all-time low. It has never been THIS bad. Even in 2021, a 13-assist to 5-turnover ratio with his usage rate being so high was a great return. He has taken a nose dive in quite literally every facet of his game since joining the Lakers, but it is important to not lose sight of who he was before that. Was he ever a championship-caliber player as the best player on a team? No. Was he a great complementary star to KD? Yes. Is he a 1st ballot Hall-of-Famer? Yes. Does he belong in the same breath as guys like Melo and AI? Yes.
Thumbnail made my heart stop for a second
He’s just a successful “Steve Francis”. He did made it to the finals and became MVP. Still his career ended similar to that like The Franchise
Bro is a time traveler
I can see your line of thinking with Kobe post shaq and pre gasol vs when gasol was traded. The reality is that if Kobe wasn’t performing scoring wise on any given night the lakers were losing. They were that anemic on offense. Later when pau came along Bynum and Odom had matured, fisher was back, and Gasol was a legitimate #2
Lakers were #2 spot when they got Gasol.
Best channel ever
When i heard that music I knew what time it was
I remember about 3/4 through last year Russ was shooting about 58%… ON LAYUPS
How many attempts?
@@anubis4032 a shit ton. They were like 60 games into the season
The Russ disrespect is so crazy though (not you I'm saying in general). This man is Mr triple double, a former league MVP and averaged a triple digit for 3 straight seasons which is just incredible. I know he never won a title and hasn't been his best especially last season but Russ is a solid player still and he always go 100. I will never disrespect him cause of what he did.
🗣PREACH!!
I've been saying that this whole time. He needed better coaching as a rookie to control the beast that he is
Love this video. Love how you still showed respect to russ. But dam his ego is holding him back.
I miss Russell “beast” brook 😢
Russ has played with LITERALLY EVERY STAR in the league and got NOTHING!! He's trash as a Point Guard shoulda been a 2 Guard woulda worked out way better!
Basketball is a team sport, so padding your statline and losing games is not a winning strategy, something Los Angeles has learned the hard way.
Yep u need a strong coach to reign these types of players in. The coaches he had coddled him and then the front office backed it up. As an OKC fan I couldn't blame KD for leaving....
I hope he adapts and stays relevant. He's a joke now, which is unfortunate because he's all time great, but that player seems to have passed. I hope he doesn't fizzle out, it sucks when exciting players like that go out sad.
He won't adapt. He'll take his money, buzz off to another team for increased ticket sales. He won't be a 6th man / bench role player. He is Carmelo but worse.
@@jonathansykes4986 So why is Russ still on a team and melo isn’t the lakers don’t even want melo😂

@@morijin9552 maybe because carmelo is 38.
That’s what happens to players who r delusional
Most people could not handle if they were judged by the same standard they judge Westbrook.
Lakers turned into the wizards was an eye opening bar
To me Russ was never that great like his triple double is a byproduct of him playing selfishly and his team forced to accept it. And guess what, his team never wins because it's russ way or no way, and his way is a losing way. Not to mention that he just so stubbron that he knows he needs to change but he just don't bother.
bro did you really call it for him to go to utah
Russ is a "me" player not a "team" player
This generation’s Iverson. Fans of both players will defend their ridiculous egos because of how dominant they were in their primes but that doesn’t change the facts.
This video aged poorly so far. Maybe spend less time being like the rest of media.
This has aged well lmao. Nobody wants westbrick
Russ game heavily revolves around his athleticism. His game, as a whole has always lacked other skills such as defense, shooting, off-ball, etc. Paired with the lack of basketball IQ and instincts and natural feel for the game, which unfortunately is something that is unquantifiable (because Russ fans always like to overhype stats and numbers, which is stupid) has hurt Russ tremendously as he ages and his athleticism declines. Russ fits in one of those rare type of players, players that are just terrible with the game but it doesn’t matter anyway because he was blessed with immense and explosive athleticism.
Sigh….I didn’t want to watch this video but your content is so fire I gotta watch it
We like that infinity 888 background music
No this failure is entirely lebron’s fault. Russ is a scapegoat. Just like bosh was a scapegoat, love was a scapegoat, and now Russ.
Bro watch a basketball game. Russ cannot run point
Smoking something crazy 💀
bosh was unlucky and was because of blood clots, bron isnt god he cant control what happens to bosh
this is someone who came to hate..just ignore him
This title was so good I clicked real quick
You can argue Pat Bev destroyed RW's stat chase dreams. now they're on the same team, Pat bev may be reviving Russ's career
As a diehard okc fan, it’s sad to see him in this light
That thumbnail was dirty. As a Jazz fan, having Russ traded to the Jazz with our identity almost always being tied to team centric basketball had me shook thinking it was a headline.
It’s NOT hard when your teammates let you get stats. As a point guard his shot selection and turnovers aren’t something a team can handle
Russ is one of my fav players and will always be I just hope he could bounce back at least ones more and even if he can’t it’s cool
I still love him
