Westbrook 3-17 in 4

[gambit1990]

okc's bench = -64
rocket's bench = +41

my point exactly. people on here acting like WB has a team.

my point exactly. people on here acting like WB has a team.

They have "talent" (for example you would take Adams over Dedmon, Dipo over TP, etc..) but it's not built well. Especially because Westbrook just isn't a great shooter. He's made himself good enough to be dangerous at what he does best, but it's really hard to have someone with that high of a usage rate that isn't an amazing shooter.

But his teammates don't make things easier that is for sure.

to put it gently... okc's roster is half talent, half trash.

i already said they only have half a team. and that was before i found out the bench was -64.

It sucks that WB 4th was so awful. But he watched the lead he built evaporate when he was on the bench, was yelling at the coach to reinsert him and then pressed way too hard because of it.

[gambit1990]

-if i'm the spurs i take any of: ryan anderson, ariza, capela, beverley, nene, eric gordon, lou williams

-if i'm the spurs i take 4, maybe 5 of: taj, adams, roberson... oladipo, kanter, grant, singler, christon, abrines

has a bench ever had -64 or worse in the playoffs? would appreciate if someone could find that stat. such a mind numbing number.

Difference between Harden and Westbrook is that Harden can actually help his teammates to get better shots. Westy can't.

Whether westy's team lost the lead for him is bad, but an MVP finds a way to win that game.

How in do u shoot 3-17 in a quarter
13-17 may s 3-17 stop shooting

He used to make the same brick maneuvers when he had DuRbEtA, he cant control himself... HERO TIME!

undeniable

i LOVE WB's effort but it gets the better of him from time to time

[gambit1990]

i wonder if brooks or donovan have told him to slow it down a little.

westbrook almost seems to have no chill on offense. and some of his errant passes are like... how?

love him or hate him, you can't say he isn't trying to win.

[cd021]

Harden had 20 FTs. Why won't the media freak out about that? It was a closer game than Spurs-Grizz 2

Liberal media tbh

17 shots in any quarter is pretty damn insane. 3 makes is ing awful.

I was hoping that the Spurs played OKC in the 1st round before Tony Allen went down because I knew Westbrook would have these bad shooting nights.

He did a John Starks in one quarter.

Ya. Nurkic would definitely help, but they didn't have them when building this team. They gave Evan Turner money and he's clearly not worth it. Crabbe got paid big time and has developed at all which is disturbing. They just have a bunch of Celtics type players (but slightly worse) and limited ceiling on both ends.

Celtics players are on really nice contracts. Blazers went out and paid their core. Bad decision.

Real MVP Kawhichael 69 points on 28 shots over two games.

Chimpy missed in a quarter half the shots Kawhi took in 2 games

[140]

I bet Enrique could only dream of putting up so many shots in a quarter.

tbh

I won't just make fun of D'Antoni like the Spurs will beat him automatically.
This Rockets team's offense looks like capable of putting up runs like crazy.

[Horse]

The team is so used to getting westbrick triple-doubles they forgot how to play to win.

This is true. They don't even know how to go get rebounds anymore since their muscle memory tells them to block out so someone else can go get it.

Plus isn't Houston the only team the Spurs have never beaten in a playoff series? I know who I want if that's the case.

i'm pretty sure that's accurate. i know they lost back in the ice man days and i think they lost twice (once in a 7 game series when calvin murphy went off) in that time frame. then, of course, there was the infamous '95 meltdown when olajuwon ripped out the admirals heart and ate in front of everyone. rockets fans still refer back to this as if it were yesterday.

I posted that in NBA forum but this is a record. He is second player to ever attempt 17 shots in one quarter, he reaches Rick Barry mark in 1967... not even chamberlain ever had 17 FGAs in one quarter...

[TD 21]

A disgraceful performance by a disgraceful player. I don't care limited one's team is, 17 field goal attempts in a quarter is inexplicable, especially considering how ridiculous most of them were.

If he looked like Curry or had a personality like Leonard, he'd receive a lot more criticism.
