Poor Russell Westbrook
Russell Westbrook had another HUGE night in the playoffs but his season is now over. The Jazz beat the Thunder 96-91 and head to the second round while Westbrook heads to the couch. I do feel bad for him. Other than Paul George, who played terrible last night, he is surrounded by an awful roster. Melo is worthless. Congrats Utah Jazz!
Mixed feelings on Russ..love his play style and watching him but it seems like he needs to be more of a team player. Sometimes I think his aggressiveness gets the best of him. Definitely can use some better role players and a coach to put him in the right scheme.
Agreed. How about the Cavs and Pacers playing game 7 tomorrow!
OKC gave up Kanter, Sabonis, Oladipo, McDermott and a 2nd Round rick for PG and Melo. Not sure if it was worth it. PG will most likely bail, and Melo is just plain bad off the ball. He - much like Russ- need the ball to be effective, they aren't great playing off the ball.
I think this graphic is pretty interesting as well
