It's funny to see all the true colors of some people.

Westbrook has poured his heart out for this team and SINGLE HANDIDLY carried this team to the playoffs last season while having one of the greatest seasons of all time.

So yeah, I think he's allowed to have one season in which maybe he's just off.

Are you serious? He will have time comes offseason (which last 6 months). And he will be retired after (more or less) his 35 years old.

What worries me the most is not the fact that he's been playing bad. It's that he doesn't seem to see/know how bad he's right now. I know he has knee issues so...

Another game against a solid team, another loss.

So predictable. We can't beat anyone worth a damn.
Said in a thread about which point guards would make OKC better if they replaced Westbrook:

aside from the obvious issues.

dre leaves the game after 5 minutes during 4Q-- portland has scored 2 points.

felton remains in the game the rest of the way, attempts zero shots, gets roasted on defense, etc.

sound familiar?

lots of other b.s. in this game to talk about but this refrain is getting a bit too regular this season.

I don't think anyone is denying how amazing he is, but this season he's been horrendous. Melo/Adams/Felton seem like the only consistent players.
