    Let's put the final nail in Westbrook's coffin? He's the all-time ball hog. Hogged his way into some records and awards and the more seasons like this that happen...where teammates leave and suddenly get way better, or new teammates show up and live up to their worst perceptions...

    He got bounced by Ricky Rubio and the Jazz.

    To OKC fan, I say enjoy the highlight reel dunks and the sour apples in press conferences. That's as good as it gets with Westbrook.

    You almost want to feel bad for Westbrook, he’s so rigid that it negatively affects his team. He elicits no self confidence in his teammates.

    I have a feeling people are quietly getting off the Westbrook bandwagon, to save face. Because he’s a side show, not the main event. And no knock on his skills, they are elite, just not enough to consistently will his team to victory. He has to learn to trust his teammates and keep them happy.

    Rockets just lost game 2 and I just saw this was up.. Hopefully some Russell Westbrook ridicule will lift my spirits.
