    Russ tried his best to lose that game, I facepalmed so hard when he shot that last 3 about 4 feet from the arc.

    Russ losing schadenfreude is kind of nice, so in a way this is a bummer. But the Nets struggling should simultaneously make Harden less likely to want to go there and make the Nets willing to give up more future picks/swaps to get him. So I support this Wizards win.

    This is a really good way to make this a positive.

    Caught the second half of Nets-Wiz. Washington won in spite of Westbrook’s woeful shot attempts.

    Wizards won because Westbrook had 10 assists and only 2 turnovers

    For a guy that’s quite similar to Harden you guys sure do love hating on WB.

    These are the kinds of statements that make people skip over anything else you have to say.

    BUT I think you know how brain dead the claim is. Just trollin.

    They can't hate on their home team, that's why the diversion to Westbrook.

    Team made the trade, Westbrook just jumped on it because Harden reached out.

    I do not understand why they hate him when he isn't even on the team anymore.

    They also hate Curry.

    Because they both make a ton of 3s... oh wait


    They both love the mid range game... ah maybe not


    They both heavily rely on their athleticism to get to the rim... ok nvm...


    They both play with nonstop passion... well... nvm


    They both sprint down the court to push the fast break... well maybe not...


    They both... played in OKC? Have high usages? I don't know I give up...

    John Wall is far more similar to Westbrook than Harden is. And John Wall is not that similar to Westbrook, other than being fast and questionable shooting.

    Lifelong John Wall fan, who loves reading the dirt on here regarding Wall vs. Westbrook. Man oh man did I wish we had Wall back. Now I just want the Rockets to win every game and the Wizards to lose every game. Today was a good day.

    The Wizards got as close as 4 today in the 4th but Westbrook made sure to throw the ball away a few times and take some jumpers.

    I've always disliked Westbrook's game but had to try to give him a chance when we traded for him last year. I kept hoping and trying to look at his game as positively as I could, but at the end of the day I knew that he wasn't good anymore. His BBIQ is just sad and without his all world athleticism he is a complete liability with his big ego. I knew that with Wall, while he might have been slowed down due to injury (it does not look like it so far this season), he would still be a positive contributor as he's a much smarter player and not as hardheaded.
