I mean a lot of people take pride in their name. No reason for him to be exempt. It's wild to me how so many posters here just completely remove the humanity from the players.

I don't ever watch Westbrook, but those bank shots used to go in more often right?

this was the first season where i actually watched more lakers games than my favorite team heat games... why? because of westbrick!! it was the most hilarious thing i ever seen.. its like watching pee wee herman play basketball... missing point blank uncontested layups... clanking threes of the backboard, airballing , and than being salty as fk when the other team is **** on him and his team. If the lakers continue playing this dude for an entire new season, i expect even more entertainment..it just sucks that i sometimes miss heat games to watch westbrick but i just cant help it, its free comedy... how much does one pay to go to a comedy show? save money and just watch the lakeshow! :)

It’s funny when dudes act like someone wouldn’t say something to their face. Cmon is Russ really going to assault Skip for calling him Westbrick?

Don't forget, his wife and children also carry the last name Westbrook. I don't blame him for getting pissed about it.

I don’t think it’s that Russ would assault him, it’s that Skip would surely never be this disrespectful in person. People stoop to levels they wouldn’t otherwise, not really about a threat of assault, more a loss of basic decency when behind a keyboard.

bayles has a way of saying stuff that is an irritant. he's just one of those kinds of people. i don't have to explain that - you all know

my wife happen to hear undisputed and in 10 seconds she said "i don't like him"

btw,,,i liked jenny taft who used to moverate undisputed. now she 's not there and the reason, i found out is skip said something. so i did a youtube search for that convo. WOW,,,,SKIP WAS A DISMISSIVE PR***K

I'm on Westbrook's side here. Skip Bayless couldn't play pro ball in his wildest fantasies. To have someone who is paid to be a troll call you names when you have Westbrook's resume is ridiculous, and I say that as someone who always thought Westbrook's impact on the floor was overrated even in his prime.

Bayless feeds off stuff like this. It's the only reason he exists. Westbrook just gave Skip the validation he seeks.

You guys are losers, grade A losers man. You guys act like it's easy to consistently shoot the ball well. Westbrook hasn't done a single thing to anyone as far as the masses know, always gives it his all.

He's not a good shooter, does that mean he's entitled to passive aggressive retorts from ppl who couldn't do 1% of all the other things on the court. Grade A losers.

He chirps back at the losers and somehow he shouldn't care what other ppl say? this man skip is on national TV and YouTube disrespecting his name constantly and Westbrook is the loser. Chumps, primetime chumps if you agree with that ish

A lot of ppl deserve to punched or slapped in the face for being disrespectful for absolutely no reason. The world would probably be a better place.

It's a lot easier to be disrespectful from behind a screen, flippin cowards they are

He makes way too much money to give a **** what a troll says. That said...he also makes way too much money to put up the bricks that he does.

If a surgeon botches surgeries as badly as Russell misses shots...he deserves to be called out, stripped of his/her license.

I don't get paid to put a basketball in a hoop...but if I did, I'd be working harder to make sure I don't embarrass myself like Russ does. If I'm as bad at my job as Russ is at shooting...I'd deserve the criticism and try harder to be better...not clap back like an insecure child.

Imagine having enough money to literally do anything in the World, but instead you're on Twitter arguing with a professional troll. :lol:

Dude is making 40M as the starting PG for the Lakers but is upset that 'basketball personalities' are calling him Westbrick haha
