Lakers are 5-2 without him. Getting rid of him was the steal.

Rough night for Kawhi. His legs weren't there tonight.

Good game for the Wolves, who look revived after the DLo-for-Conley trade.

Clips now 0-3 in the Russ Era.

what are you talking about?
Wolves lost 3 straight before this game and the losses were against Charlotte, Wizards and Curry-less Warriors.

Have you not learned the first rule of Russ fans? The team results don't matter unless they win then its due to Russ

Lakers definitely would have lost this Thunder game if Westbrook was still playing there.

The greatest trick the devil ever played was losing you games while making it look like it wasn't his fault

Yes he’s a huge addition by subtraction. Pelinka really screwed LA by trading for him in the first place.

Just wait til he really starts feeling himself and starts taking more 3s. It’ll be fun to watch

This surprises me. Westbrook has clearly taken a step back on the court, deferring to Kawhi and PG. But apparently he is already a locker room leader.

Read on Twitter

This does fit with what Pat Bev said about Russ, though.

If Russ does understand the game as well as Pat Bev says Russ does, then yeah I can understand why he would be a leader for the Clips. As Russ says in the video clip, making sure to point out things to his teammates they may miss during the game.

Why is every fanbase deluded that they think Westbrook is going to be great for them?

Dude has underwhelmed for the most part since he left OKC. Westbrook relied heavily on athleticism to be as good as he was and the second that started to really wane he soon became a far inferior player.

Doesn't surprise me, Kawhi and PG are not leaders

Bev was pretty much the heart of that team in years past. Kawhi and PG were never ones to lead in the locker room so I'm not surprised Russ taking over.

If im the Clippers idk how to feel about Russ gaining more power.

Can't argue against the stats but their close losses where due to him in the games i watched so, it's does not "look like a steal"

No chance they come back from 27 down against Dallas either. Russ was the king of stopping his own team's momentum. Lakers traded their best offensive stopper.

Oh without debate, it’s the other 29 FOs who are peachy to have missed the “look like a steal”. :lol:

Serious Question, Is Russ paying a stylist to put The Undertakers WWE hat, Betty Whites strand of pearls & Megan the stallions logo on him for post game outfits?

Lost to Kings by 1 in double overtime

They had a double digit lead late in the 4th but had a stretch of 4 turnovers in a row that blew that lead.

They had 25 turnovers in that game.

Then went to overtime vs Nuggets and allowed Nuggets to score three buckets in a row with lazy And dumb defense

They were team losses
