Westbrook is not human. He's definitely a cyborg manufactured in a lab.
Said in a thread about which point guards would make OKC better if they replaced Westbrook:

Yo and I know they played like hot garbage and rebuild and whatever but sorry I'm selfish and I want to see him do this stuff for my team, nobody else. That's my point guard.

When Westbrook passes to a guy that gets fouled and go to the freethrow line. Is that a hockey assist or does it have special name?

Also, I wonder how many assists his teammates owe him ..... its unbelieveable how many open shots they have missed!

And I laugh at those who say that IT is the best 4th Quarter player in NBA.... he might be best, but always after Westbrook!

You asking for a negative comment? He's too short! Seriously, if he were 6'9 he'd be right there with LeBron as the best player in the world. If LeBron was 6'3 he'd basically be Russ. That's about as negative as you can get on Russ right now.

No player is more important then the franchise. I am a fan of the team first and players a distance 2nd.

I'm a fan first and I want entertainment. That was insane.

Also, clinched playoffs tonight.

Last year we were playing some terrible defense before the playoffs, then we started defending so well and with so much energy when PO's started. Can we do it again? Pretty worried about Adams. I also prefer Abrines and Mcbucket compared to Waiters but Dion was mentally very strong during the PO's last year. Hope we can step up. GOATbrook can't give more than what he's giving ( well we never know with him, but sounds almost impossible :) )
Hope we can play some defense again, and use our bigs on the offensive end.

If we don't trade Westbrook and rebuild, I want to trade everyone else on the team. Maybe we can keep Abrines. All the others are so disappointing.

Some respect for Adams please. He's trash last months but he's still a top 10 center in the league.

Don't even care they were garbage, I'm in too good a mood tonight for even feeling anything negative. Getting MVP chants in Orlando. Buzzer beaters. 19 point 4th quarters.

I was scoreboard watching in the 4th because I was afraid I'd jinx a comeback if I turned it on but had to see OT. I'm just really pumped about an OT win vs a bad team because Russ just made it fun.

I really hope we can get a shot at Utah in the playoffs. Not that I think they are an easy opponent, but I think that's a 50/50 series that we could come out with a win in.

Rockets after adding Lou Williams will be tough imo.

With teams playing small ball and having power forwards play the 5, he's not a top ten big man. Even if he was,that doesn't mean much other than he's barely in the top 1/3 of starters in the league.

We have a problem with PF position, but that's not Adams's fault. I was saying top 10 but he's more close to top 5 : Cousins, Gasol, Gobert, Drummond are clearly better than him. The rest? Not so sure. Anyway he's closer of being top 5 than top 10.

Of course he has been playing REALLY bad but the only good thing we still have left from previous trades / picks is Adams by far.
