Yeah it’s so ignorant to declare a flawless offensive player best in the league, and say a guy who contributes more bad than good is a loser. Marcus Smart is a better basketball player than Westbrook, I wish we had him.
Russ did not play well tonight at all. Harden rolls out of bed and gets 40. If Clint doesn't have an absolute monster game, Russ loses the Rockets this game.
We survived a Worstbrooke performance. Thank the heavens our MVP runner up can carry that hard... and Clint actually showed up.
I mean... literally what the hell? Have you watched every game this season The numbers do not lie. It’s taken that recent amazing streak of 11 games to bring his **** show of a season up to replacement level. For a MAX guy. Literally is so far below league average in scoring efficiency but takes the 3-4th most shots in the league. This is the wildest denial of a players value since the LOF invasion.
The contract makes all of this hate WB gets valid... But on the contrary, his tenacity, will, and high motor makes him valuable during this short ,Harden-led , window... But when that window closes, I would agree that he's would an abomination to this team..
All i know is Hardens legs have never been fresher in the 4th then this year. Cp3 and Dwight wanted to rest and ride Harden all season long then try hard in the playoffs. Russ goes hard all 82 and that helps Harden be fresher when the game counts. You can go in your lab and punch numbers in your calculator all you want but I'm telling you Russ is a Rocket and he's good for this team.
Westbrook was pretty brutal tonight thank you Clint for stepping up and James for doing what he almost always does
Pretty much what I expected. LOF level denial. The same numbers that show him to be garbage this year showed him to be almost worthy of his MVP in the past. This isn’t some statistical gymnastics to try to paint a player I hate into a bad player. On the whole he has been bad. You can try to attribute Harden’s continued ascension to greatness to Westbrook but that’s obviously foolish. The man dominates year after year after year no matter who is next to him. If anything Westbrook has increased the level of difficulty to what Harden is doing. Making it that more impressive.
I guess you know whats going on out there better than James Harden himself lmao. You Westbrook haters are probably right and all time great James Harden has it wrong. Galaxy brain on this one he should be running the Rockets with this level of analysis.
