    Watching this and listening to what Michael Jordan is saying about Russ' energy/spirit on the court has to be respected and get you guys excited about what he will bring on the court for us this upcoming year.

    All of the people that hate Harden's casual nature and how sometimes it looks like he's halfway asleep as he camps at the free throw line and lazily drops 50 are going to love Westbrook because he's the exact opposite of that.

    He's going to be passionate about every moment of the game and despite his inefficiency, always exciting to watch.

    MJ is probably the worst talent evaluator in the league rn that doesn’t work for the Knicks

    I hope Russ will be healthy throughout the season. That's my biggest concern.

    High praise. I do look forward to watching that constant energy and passion each game. He never seems to get tired. He always plays like he has a chip on his shoulder. He is kinda old school in that way.

    I just want to him play smart and under control. If he can raise his shooting percentages back to just a reasonable rate, this could be one of the most exciting seasons in Rox history.

    I want another championship. I’m excited about Rockets games no matter who is on the team. I’ve never been a big Westbrook fan, but I’m going to get behind this move because I love the Rockets. I am cautiously optimistic.

    I'm hoping Russ' passion pumps other role players on our team up to do more.

    Energy/spirit doesn't make you a better shooter or have better basketball IQ

    You need all those ingredients within a team to have a championship recipe though.

    IN case you missed the message in this thread.

    There is nothing you can post that the negative nillies won't find a way to hate on

    Westbrook stuff seems to sell pretty well tho, so ofcourse MJ loves him.

    Tilman's gonna love him too, he'll help sell more tickets.
