Russell Westbrook won't go down as a Gilbert Arenas, a Brandon Roy or an Andrew Bynum.
...unjustified hype here. I'm mean... you all are recklessly throwing around the terms superstar and alpha male with this clown. Its like you guys never learn. Every two years or so you have a guy that elevates his game for a season or two and then you never hear from again. I warned you guys about Arenas when you was calling him a superstar. The hasn't played in five years and is still getting that NBA money. Brandon Roy was another one I warned you guys about. You s were upset at me for calling Bynum a bum... where is he now? The is a loser with a bad at ude. No one will even remember him in two years.
Russell Westbrook won't go down as a Gilbert Arenas, a Brandon Roy or an Andrew Bynum.
lol... here we go again. I mean... if you even look at my most recent pick... which was Randle... the couldn't make it through opening day. And let's not make light of the fact of the foot surgery he also had as well. Russell is done in two years tops.
I could see it, he relies heavily on his athleticism and he is prone to injuries because of the way he plays.
well with his game that relies on so much athleticism hes gonna fall back in a few years. depending how his body takes it. if his body is like lebrons body his peak may last longer. but i mean cmon. its not like hes some guy that suddenly appeared. hes been an all star for the past couple of years now.
OP is spot on. However Russ will get a huge contract and that's all that matters to Russ. He can talk rings all day, but you have to alter your game to win rings, have to include the team. Prime Shaq or Tim ain't walking through that door in OKC, so he needs to appreciate the fact that he's got KD and Serge on his team and involve them.
They also desperately need a new coach, and if Presti doesn't make that move, a new GM.
Don't understand how they can love Westbrook but hate Kobe for the same reason. At least DMC is consistent.
There's not a lot of difference between the two other than Westbrook doesn't have Kobe's IQ on the court. Chuck was correct that Westbrook takes it personally on offense, but not on defense. Defense seems to be Russell's time to breathe. Then he gets the ball and he's angry. Russ has an engine though that's unmatched. Kobe didn't go for every rebound and Kobe wasn't the PG so he didn't have the ball until it was passed to him. Russ has it on every possession unless it's a fast break from a turnover. He can get his shot any time he wants, he needs to focus on getting his team involved else they'll go nowhere even with KD back.
DMC with the Monday Morning basketball take goods
And only ONE cup of coffee... so far
Wonder if ibaka will bolt. Haven't seen him touch the ball in weeks. Westcancer doin what he does best and destroying that team one brick at a time
Peanut butter pirates like DMC are usually consistent from taking all that in the ass...so I for one am not surprised he's consistent
Chuckbrook is gonna get used to all this hype then he's gonna have to go back to sharing shots with Beta.
Keep your asshole shut you moron....you don't know what the your talking about just a fat ass Miller lite, pretzel, and salami eating slob with dingle berries and caked up in your ass....
fact is there's a ton of difference between WB and Kobe...for starters their height, weight, skill level and positions played....Westbrook doesn't have Kobe's range, mid and low post games nor defensive tenacity and can't defend all 5 positions like Kobe can..that's right I said all 5 positions..proof coming shortly..
WB also doesn't have a go to shot like KB did which was his patented turn-around fadeaway like MJ's..WB also can't break down multiple defenders in a true double team situation..sure he can penetrate, and play off the ball and go to the rim hard to break double teams like Lebron does but he can't break down a 2 on 1 on the ball double like Kobe routinely did because he doesn't have the skill and length to do it....
WB is a mini version of Kobe as far as at ude only....he can't get his shot off at any time and literally anywhere on the court like Kobe could....man I could go on there are very few similarities and way more differences....
As far as Kobe guarding all 5 postions here is the PROOF...and the 2nd video is especially special to me for all time...
Look at Kobe shutting these Nikkas down...from Jason terry, D-Wade, Lebron, and many more....total shutdown...look at this vid closely of a Prime Lebron and Wade being played by an older Kobe...these two cats are so lucky they didn't have to face an absolutely prime Kobe they wouldn't be as popular as they are today...especially Lebron...Kobe proved that he dosen't need any help with Lebron 1 on 1...Not any
end of story keep your fat pie hole shut DMC
Kobe blocks this dude 3 times in the same dam game....Let me know when WB can do this...
I used to hate on Westbrook but I can't anymore, looks at what he's been doing lately. Its not hype when he's putting up the numbers he is including distributing the ball. He had 17 assists last night alone 30-11-17. What more do you want him to do so he doesn't qualify to you guys as "hyped" anymore? Where would this team be without Westbrook right now? Outside of Westbrook with Durrant out, who exactly is their second option for scoring? Or have Durrant back with Westbrook out of the equation, where would the team be standing in rankings right now? Would they have any shot in the playoffs without Westbrook? I used to hate on him as much as anyone here with plenty ofChimpbook threads, but his drive and toughness on every play is not something you see very often in the league anymore. I'll take a ridiculously athletic player who can at times play reckless over someone who's not going to show up every night producing.
Hes ranking this season:
Points: #1
FGM: #2
FTM: #2
Assists: #4
Steal: #2
Try toit
I'm a WB fan....the reality is the NBA is watered down anyways these days...so I just accept it for what it is....them nikkas way better than my sorry ass anyway![]()
Icing teammates
.500 ball
Ball dominant PG
What's not to love?
Defense according to videosgotta love these gots
Last time I checked, no human is injury proof.
Why do you even bother anymore? You suck ass. Retire.
And Westbrook already has had his share of injuries. The careers of the players mentioned went down the drain because of recurring injuries and stupidity, in Hibachi's case. Westbrook is a chucker but I don't think he'll be out of fashion in two years, like what's being thrown around here...
Shut your naruto loving ass up paki got, you never warned ST about anything other than incoming anime posts whenever your name is spotted browsing a forum
Or, he coulda took up the calendar & started countin' day with the rest of the fraidy cats.
I never seen anyone get more hate than Westbrook on this forum tbh. It's not like he quit on his team and demands for a trade like Kobe
