I'm a reformed Russell stan. I used to defend everything he did. I followed him from OKC to Houston, was super happy when they beat the Thunder to move on to the second round for the first time in like 5 years. Then the Wizards happened, now hes on the Lakers and I really see the problem was always him. He has great qualities. Possibly the greatest offensive rebounder in history for his size. However, his decision making, those costly turnovers...he actually is a net negative and players have to drastically change their games around him.

He uses his immense talent and athleticism to buff his own stats to the detriment of the team. Oddly enough, I've come to believe that he doesn't do it because he is a selfish player. I used to, but I don't anymore; I actually think he believes that what he's doing is what's best for the team. Westbrook has the potential to be one of the all time greats. I think he still has enough good years in him to turn this ship around. Cheers

Bro made this and then Russ had 0 TOs tn days crazyyy

The problem with Russ, is that his strengths rarely beats his weakness now. He used have a very decent mid range jumper and was consistent at the FT line. But he has lost that since his MVP season. Russ wasn't very skilled to begin with, and he won't be able get away with it anymore as his athleticism declines. He doesn't really have a go to move and a defined style of play, which is why he has high turnover rate and low efficiency.

The decision making and bad defensive lapses have been well documented since then and he’s not done a thing to fix/change them. Delusional, overrated, overpaid.

Love this video man good job great work and points

I made it to the end first time watching u. I really enjoyed this video ngl

Great video, EXCELLENT analysis, and I especially appreciate how you give an even presentation of both strengths and weaknesses. Great job👍

Holy hell 56% for dunks?! That’s just sad.

Made it to the end of the video. I like the logic you used in excluding and including some stats/analysis

Great video love the real talk

Westbrook needs to get to at least 71% FT;even that could make a difference for the Lakers right now

I’m more mad at Lebron. We knew he was a bum. Lebron knew he was a bum. Yet he still thought we could “put egos aside”. No, this is Westbrook we’re talking about. Dudes a bum

Great vid! You should make a video about the bulls! Finally we’re good again!

Definitely enjoyed the video and analysis

Rus has only played this bad after he got covid; the missed layups, the “fumbling” turnovers, the shot selection has gotten worse, the defensive effort on the perimeter is nonexistent. It’s just hard to defend this man🤦🏾‍♂️

"LeBian Xiames makes teammates better"

Always great takes my dude.

Great video!

When you put together a roster really really well…players multiply each other’s strengths and cover up each others’ weaknesses. If you look at Golden State…Draymond’s inability to shoot consistently well is covered up because they have incredible shooting around him, and he’s allowed to focus on his strengths of playmaking and defense. The Lakers have too many players who do the same thing well but not enough of something different. Lebron makes everyone around him better…except Russ because he is a similar player as far as skill set but way less effective than Lebron. You’d be better off with a role player who can shoot and makes good decisions than Russ. I don’t know what the logic was to bring Russ, AND Rondo who again…3 players who do the same thing

Yup, CJ McCollum would fit perfectly on this Lakers roster eventhough he's an inferior player to Russ in terms of carrying a team. I look at the reasoning for getting Russ was that he works like an "innings-eater". He doesn't miss games, always plays aggressively, piles up assists & rebounds, and raises the tempo of your team. He's actually done all those things pretty well, the problem is they didn't account for his presence on the floor lowering the IQ of the team, or all the constant turnovers. The challenge is can Russ elevate his brand of Basketball to be a part of championship calibre team, rather than lower the team down to his level of middle of the road Basketball he's played since leading a team on his own?

Love the vid man

Thanks for the vid btw

I’ve been saying this from the start any guy who thinks he deserves more shots than kd at his peak is delusional

I was initially excited about the Westbrook trade because of how he finishes at the rim and his passion for the game. At the beginning of the season I wasn’t too worried but now I just cannot defend him man. He may be playing a little better than the start of the season but like you said, the turnovers, the free throws, almost everything about his game ain’t doing good or good enough for the team. Like seriously we could’ve gotten Demar Derozen, WHO IS BALLIN OUTTA HIS MIND RN IN CHICAGO, but instead we got Russ and it’s just....it saddens me man, he gotta get his act together.

He’s proven playoff loser at this point. He’s put up horrendous numbers in the playoffs with teams that are better suited to his needs compared to this Lakers team. I can’t think of any reason why the results will be any different this time.

I love Russ but I think when you compare him to a guy like CP3 it is the perfect example in the talent vs impact argument. Russ is like 6'4, stupidly athletic and despite being injured by Patrick Beverley that 1 time has essentially never missed any significant time. He may also have some of the most ridiculous career numbers at face value for any guard ever, but he simply achieves those numbers in a way that does not cause winning basketball. CP3 is smaller, nowhere near as athletic and gets injured way more but if you look at his career resume he gets steady numbers that don't jump out at you but he always makes his team better. Sometimes if you are putting up alot of numbers you are just taking numbers away from your guys that they would have put up anyway so you are not actually adding any "impact" to the game you are just hoovering up the numbers. Whereas a guy like CP3 won't try to force anything he will just play solid D, get everyone involved and make the right chess move to get wins. Mind over matter.

Well, chris paul is an actual point guard, a real facilitator and floor general. It's painful to watch when the facilitator(russ) is the one with the lowest bball iq on the floor.

In economics, there is a thing called Opportunity Cost, which is defined as: the loss of potential gain from other alternatives when one alternative is chosen. So, Westbrook scores 20 points a night, but if he played actual point guard he might have 10 points a night, but facilitate 25 points for his teammates. In other words his 10 extra points are actually costing the Lakers many more points, and therefore costing them the game.

The amount of work put into researching these vids is great man

we need more uploads bruh fr! Its 2022 and you alr a great youtuber u just need consistency!

Russ my favorite pg of all time but I'm honest with all my favorite players yes he's been bad he turns the ball over to much lebron needs to actually sit with this man and tell him to slow down or mater fact completely get the ball out of his hands and have him sit in the corner and play offball

I'm a HUGE Westbrook fan and always will be, but you were spot on. That was an honest, accurate and informative analysis.

Excellent video.

Saw you through the whole video, subscribed, and turn on notifications to ALL. Honestly it's a good take, because he does bring positives. Only, that his what were you thinking with that one passes, and his strong drives in the lane ending in just a throw it up there and see what happens; going 1 for 7 in the process plays, and the volume of clanking 3's taken make it very difficult to overcome for the team.

Westbrook can't say shit when he ain't performing in any way consistently other than the TOs

So... If Russ was sent to a G-League team, with his turnovers and shot selection, would he help that team win more games then? Im starting to think no.
