    Russ defends his relentless stat padding....

    ....Pat Redford from Deadspin shows up to box out his crtics.

    deadspin.com/russell-westbrook-says-shut-up-about-stat-padding-1825188698

    But repeatedly stated, there’s a legitimate basketball advantage to getting the ball into Westbrook’s hands as quickly and directly as possible.



    1. if this is true why does this advantageous tactic seem to miraculosly lose its advantages once Westbrook hits that magical base 10 Mark?

    2. For uncontested rebounds where the defense is already back, where is my take that for data? Who cares when he gets it, but yet these are the bulk of his rebounds...

    Westbrook already has 18 rebounds in the third. Perennial stat padder. I hope they don’t win a game in the playoffs and he goes nuts.

    LOL at this stat-padding... I just love the NBA world has come to realize what we all knew last year.

    I'm just happy Russ for his triple double. Good for him.

    Yeah but according to Pat Redford from Deadspin and Billy Donovan this was just to get hte ball into his hands and facilitate offense, which is why he has 1.0 points and thus a triple double.

    Melo boxing out to the point of putting his arms out like an airplane is absolutely hilarious!

    Espn Stat of the Day:

    There's no "I" in Westbrook.

    But there is a "WE"!

    If PG13 leaves

    Westbrook's legacy will be Triple Doubles and winning no more than 50 games a year
    and
    a first round exit

    Isn't it the same with PG13 this year?

    Near Triple Double. No more than 50 games. First round exit?

    I can't believe the pass Westbrook and OKC are getting in the media. Russ talked that hot sh-t and lost in embarrassing fashion.
