Its sad because when he was in OKC, he not only went to my church, but actually humbly spoke about his life to the congregation one Sunday. I was an usher and had the pleasure of shaking his hand when he came through the back to reach the stage. Truly a very sad story.

I think the issue with Westbrook on the lakers is that LeBron does what he does already. Westbrook needs the ball to make plays and openings but LeBron does it better, so unless he's driving to the rim, he has no idea what to do when LeBron is the ball handler. This would be easier if Westbrook was a better defender but his defense is so lazy, all he does is wait for a steal or a rebound so he can be aggressive offensively. All he needs to do is work on reading the movements of players on defense and to find open lanes and wall people off on offense. Because when he does get in the paint he can still be dangerous, he just can't rely on his team always making that space for him every time. Trust that Davis will get the rebound, that LeBron will pass him the ball when he has an opening and that if he makes space LeBron can hit some clean shots

I’m not excusing russ he’s still responsible for jus being more disciplined on that end but I’m just saying this is a problem w the whole team as well not just him. we saw this lack of effort after a stretch of good defense shi a lot w bron at center n as good as bron did at that position, i can’t help but think not having your anchor on defense actually playing for 2 months out of the season would make it harder to consistently be out there putting pressure on the offense

True to that!!!!

This was a pretty good video and the effort he puts is amazing . Also I think that Dylan should do a video about the Boston big 3

Bro. You gotta do an editing tutorial. You're videos are so high quality with flash transitions, I think people would definitely be interested in an editing breakdown

your channel is fucking amazing dude, i first saw one of your videos like 3 days ago and I've definitely watched 5-10 already. keep up the good work brother

Great one man, REALLY enjoyed it!!

He never became disciplined and developed his game, look at LeBron love him or hate him into his late 30's he's continued to add to his game, post moves, improving his jumper, improved at picking his spots, improved his decision making everything etc. Westbrook was an amazing athlete and scorer who played with great intensity when he was young but he never substantially improved after his 3rd/4th season he just took more shots, stole rebounds from his teammates and dominated the ball more and more to put up big stats. Westbrook was one of my favorite players in 2012/2013 with his incredible driving and aggressiveness, but by 2015/2016 it was obvious he was holding back OKC and KD, and I 100% believe Russ was the reason KD left OKC, maybe KD should have done more to stop westbrooks recklessness with the ball especially in late game situations but it doesn't seem like anyone has been able to get Russ to listen so I can't really fault KD.

Russ is flawed man no doubt he’s to hard headed kd is a big factor to that ever since 2017 he was hurt and the heat he got really got to him the media fans all blamed him for why kd left That’s why it’s triple double or bust for him

How is it that you blame Westbrook for everything but leave KD blame free? KD was a big reason why the Thunder lost to the Warriors in the WCF, yet it’s Westbrooks who was holding back the team?? KD shouldn’t even be considered a “winning” player, dude jumped ship to an all time great team to get a ring and hasn’t had much playoff success since he left, despite having plenty of talent around him

@@yuuki_ While I agree that KD is another media-hyped 'superstar' beta boiboi, the reason Russ gets all the blame is because Harden also left because of him. Compound this with KD/Beard reuniting in Brooklyn, without even a thought about inviting Russ, and that's why the image is as is.

Idk where you got that he left because of Westbrook lol

I’ll be completely honest, been watching basketball for the first time ever since December 30th 2021, I came across this channel in January and ever since, this man taught me so much in his videos. I love you videos and thank you so much bro. You made me love basketball even more! Keep up the amazing work! Would love to see you getting what you deserve in life❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great job editing this video

Very good overview showing both the highs and lows.

The fact that you made a video about Kevin Durant Russell Westbrook and James Harden just goes to show they were better off with each other 😭

And he's back baby

This channel is absolute masterpiece can’t wait for you to make one for Bron & Mamba 🔥

Now we need a follow up with him in the Clippers!

Been waiting for a new vid

I really hope he can get improve his shot over the off season and be able to contribute.

The EmpLemon of basketball content 😅 Good stuff man!

here since 12k dylan💪💪

Just when I thought I had nothing to watch 🔥

His career never fell apart. He made over 500 million dollars in his career he had a great career lol I think Derrick Rose was the one that had a career that fell apart..

Really love your videos; really hope you continue to make them. I find them highly enjoyable to watch

He raised his game for the playoffs this year, averaging 9 more points than the regular season

Great video as always. Thanks for making so many people aware that Russell Westbrook did indeed average a triple double but Steph Curry always got the better of him because his offence *is* his defence

It all fell apart when he left the Wizards !

Loving this channel. I know it’s an old story at this point but not many NBA fans know the true story of the sonics getting stolen from Seattle, would be cool to see a video on it.

His fans would say that he didnt have any opportunities with the Lakers but whenever he was trusted and given the ball, he would blow it

that's what they don't get.. he had to have the ball taken away,the coach job is to win games not make your supposed 3rd best player happy.. russ just wasn't good

Man the OKC section of this video just has me thinking “damn, how could they do this to him? Man played as good as he could and was either A. Met with terrible teammates play or B. All time play from opponents”

A player especially a point guard is going to decline more significantly if his main skill is athleticism. Westbrook lost 5-10 percent of his athleticism making him half the player he once was

Word. Chris Paul is slowly declining, but nowhere nearly as much. He keeps the good passing, the good hustle and the good shot selection. He is still a valuable player without speed. Westbrook without the fast counter-attack is not much at all.

The way things turned out for OKC felt like karma for the way the Thunder ownership treated and lied to Seattle. Seattle basketball fans celebrated when KD left for GSW.

I say that durant would've stayed if they kept harden instead of Westbrook

Now yall know yall need to sub to this man watching his content like this millions of views but only 86k subs?? I'm going to mask up cause yall make me sick

You did your homework ‼️ I feel like I just watched an episode or something. Great F’N VIDEO

I’m not into basketball but these documentaries are addicting and entertaining!

These feel like espn documentaries lol

Well now you can add another trade to his career brodie just went to the jazz so im glad we will see playoff russ again atleast this year lol

This video was SO GOOD! I would say maybe do a video about The Rise and Fall of DeMarcus Cousins or The Rise and Fall of Kemba Walker!

Am happy that Westbrook plays like his prime years today

Can you do a video on the recent mitchell gobert jazz and how they failed to make it to a conference finals?

Kinda feel bad for him. Unless someone has a couple bad games, he's always getting made fun of (for obvious reasons). A lot of people started disregarding his previous years as if he wasn't good. Edit: It must be awkward to have be around your teammates when you are playing bad.

i had a feeling russel would choke under the pressure of literally just being on the lakers.

awesome contextual vid

Your channel is goated bro

The number on the back of Russ' jersey is so significant; it's the amount of accountability he is willing to take when he loses, the amount of postseason games he played this year, and the number of teams who want to take that contract from the Lakers.

Russ is a icon man he’s gonna be a legend one day he should be appreciated a lil more for what he did for the game sad to see him play these days

I think part the problem was he was too reliant on his athleticism. Part of the reason why LeBron lasted so long was because he added a lot of skill to his game. Something that Russ did but not enough. Now that his athleticism has declined he’s unable to go coast to coast like he did in OKC
