Please basketball gods, I don't ask for much but let this be all the evidence MDA needs to keep Westbrook under 25 mins a game. Let that little rest run around here and there when LeBron and AD rest, but otherwise just keep shooters around Harden. How can anyone not see how much better it is without him? Let alone an incredibly experienced coach.

Very well.

I'd rather Djokovic accidentally than Westbrook on purpose.

They are the same player. People refuse to acknowledge it, for some reason

So where is Westbrook on the "Superstars with lowest bb iq" list? Clear GOAT?

Kuzma and DG keep flying by on Rockets' 3 fakes and then they have wide open shots. Again and again.
