Has there ever been a player who destroyed a contender the way current Westbrook did?

[QUOTE=Kblaze8855;14743671]I’m acting the way I always act when I read a bad argument. Somewhere between smug and incredulous. You tell me one player is the difference between two teams that are literally 80% different players then talk to me about “facts” like you’re some reasonable observer making indisputable points. You are what everyone else is on subjects they simply won’t stop talking about. Emotionally compromised.

You say the same shit dozens and dozens of times in topics like you’re gonna make someone see the light of your brilliant observations and…it isn’t happening. If you believe it…fine. I don’t care what you think he is. But you seem to really really care that others see it your way. I rarely enter a topic even loosely laker related because I know who is gonna be there and why but generally when I click one eventually you arrive with a “fresh” Russ take. I feel like I’ve seen you say “I used to really like….” about him 68 times which is amazing when…as I mentioned…I don’t generally enter topics on these subjects.

Im either stumbling over you on one of these missions at a crazy rate or…you just do it a lot. And like I said that’s ok. It just isn’t effective. I’m watching Russ play right now. He just missed a fast break layup and turned it over earlier on a weird post up. Got a layup goaltended. Created some open looks. He just fouled Randle on an unnecessary reach in during a late shot clock post up. Dumb foul. Some good drives. It’s…him.

Im not getting new information from you. Anyone here who cares enough already thinks what they think and don’t much factor in your “facts”. I don’t know what you think happens when you keep posting them. As much as you interacted with 3ball you should know that all that comes of obsessively pointing out the same thing is people stop listening.

Mix it up and maybe get new reactions. I don’t know who you expect to come around after this long.

At some point you’re just Frank Grimes losing his mind over people not hating Homer

Kblaze ethering and exposing RRR3

:bowdown:

"Wwaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh Westbrook waaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! :cry:"


Lebron is the only player in the history of the sport to lead a super team (and a preseason favorite) to the lottery.

[QUOTE=RRR3;14743493]The Lakers were the champs in 2020, first seed in 2021 before injuries messed them up and even then very likely at minimum make the finals if AD doesn't go down in the playoffs. Then Westbrook arrives and they can't even make the play-in (LeBron and AD missed a ton of games it's true, but even when healthy the team didn't play well). More of the same this year until Westbrook is traded and the Lakers suddenly look like a great team again, and even after LeBron gets injured yet again they continue to play well without him (a huge contrast to how they played without him pre-trade). Meanwhile, Westbrook has joined the Clippers who were on a hot streak before he arrived, and they are 2-5 since they acquired him. Westbrook was a great player in his prime, but his refusal to admit he no longer is seemingly makes him the most cancerous player in NBA history. It's truly incredible one man can destroy a good team like this.[/QUOTE]

Westbrook made them good as well. Never missed playoffs playing with another star half the season until Lebron came along. Prove me wrong!

One of the worst backfired threads in recent memory

Clippers can't stop winning with Russ

RRR3 taking a huge L like Lebron :lol

Our Boy Russ just keeps winning and going to the playoff once again

Funny how Russ only MISS the playoff once Ledeadweight recruited him :oldlol:

Low IQ Bran stan is wrong again :kobe:

The impact of Westbrook will be misunderstood by anyone that thinks he's a terrible addition to any team just like it will be misunderstood by anyone that thinks he's a good addition to any team. Russell Westbrook, especially with the decline he's had over the last few years, is a great player for a team that just wants to be respectable and doesn't have a star. Most great guards are at the least good shooters. Westbrook is not so it's hard for him to compliment other great ballhandlers. He might just be the worst point guard for Lebron james who just wants a jumpshooter that can bring the ball up the floor. They maybe even should have tried making James play off the ball even though that solution is flawed because James is a better playmaker than Westbrook. It works out better on the Clippers because George and Leonard don't dominate the ball like James and have to take so much time off. Unlike the Lakers where he was a liability the Clippers need that triple double machine.

The problem will be in the playoffs if/when Leonard are George are out there in the clutch. Lue will be challenged to make Westbrook useful in that situation because that's when you want the ball in Leonard's hands. But games like last night when they don't have their stars Westbrook is great for them to have around.

Revenge arc looming :lol

I knew Westbrook could still play, but thought his game would hurt a contender. PG and Kawhi were out though and Russ got to do his thing. Would like to see more of this...an efficient and productive game...while both are on the floor.

They were up like 20 at halftime weren’t they?

Sometimes you just have to take the L and move on :oldlol:

Russ fit in fine with the wizards and seems to be fitting in well with the clippers. Sure he has issues and isn't what he used to be but he isn't a cancer.

He was a terrible fit with the Lakers, but we'll see how Russ looks come playoff time. Ever since his MVP year he's been absolutely atrocious in the playoffs.
