I love Westbrook tbh, he really is a chucker though. No question about that.
If he could control his emotions this guy would be an ATG, needs to be put on some ritalin or something

He prolly was my most hated player last year alongisde Durant in OKC. But this year, how can you hate this dude? The supposed to be alpha keeps getting injured what is he supposed to do? He's doing a great job carrying OKC this season and last year in the playoffs too.
^^^^^^^ This.He is a beast , anyone that says otherwise is a hater plain and simple
he becomes a really annoying player when durant is not there.. no excuses to shoot <.33
He may not complete trust his teammates but you can never question his effort and heart to contribute to win a game.
He's never been a good shooter. Ever. But it's mostly self inflicted. I think he could become a very good shooter if he just took better shots.
This. His is ultra talented but he's just not smart enough to turn that talent into greatness. Much like Francis, when his athleticism goes he will be out of the league.
It's "Ani"I'm far more edumucated than you suck my .
j/k, DMC, calm the down with your routine keyboard crusade .
We get it, you hate OKC and want to but every player you wish was on the spurs. Maybe if you ask nicely they'll spread their big black anuses for you.

Bull . You're confusing contribution and heart with greed and self promotion. If he truly wanted to contribute he would not throw up 40 shots on a team with other people on the floor. If he had heart, it wouldn't be seen through heroballing regardless of his constant break neck pace. It would be seen though perseverance as his teammates learn to contribute.
Running 100 mph every possession does not equal not showing passion. Its playing stupid and reckless.
Shooting 40 shots in a game does not equal showing passion. Its not being alpha. Its being stupid and reckless.
Mark Madsen showed lots of passion. Did you love him as much as Westbrook? KG showed lots of passion, and nobody can stand that mother fukker.
What he says:
"Honestly, I think I was actually shooting too much, I think I got to do a better job of trusting my teammates more. I am not saying I don't, but consistently trusting them regardless of what is going on, regardless of the time, score and possession. Just find a way to trust them and let them make some plays as well." -Russell Westbrook

I don't think we'll have to worry about Russ trusting his teammates anytime soon, since his chucking it's really a trust issue but a self promotion issue. He so overtly self promotes that he has to dress like a clown and basically on his team to get attention even during a time when there's no other real presence of the floor.
he's a beast all right. a stupid ing beast.
He's not even the worst chucker on his own team. Look no further than Waiters and Kanter (675 shots+TOs to 26 assists this year = 26x).
this is why DMC is a legend and a constant top tier poster of this board tbh
Westbrook is like a mix between Iverson and Francis, only bigger.
Stephon Marbury at his very peak resembled WB
Those 3 were innate losers. Westbrook is a winner.
His teammates shot >50% for the evening. That's not a drive to win, that's a drive to glorify yourself at any/all expense.
Really? How many times has he won the last game he's played, Cubby?
Westbrook is a certified alpha. Dude just doesn't give a . He's cut from the same cloth as Kobe and Jordan, true Alpha's in their own eras.
*flamesuit on*
What the flying has Westbrook done Cubby? Or are you just talking out of your ass?
Never get old cuddie.
Nothing, but, that does not preclude him being a winner, Ill.
Of course you think that.
