Seriously, why the hate on Westbrook?

[Cliff Paul]

Westbrook is the type of guy who doesn't give a f*ck what the critics say. And that is what admire about him. He's fearless. Like he said, if people aren't talking about you, you're doing something wrong.

That's a negative, not a positive. A great player concerns himself entirely with what people think of him. Every step he takes should be calculated with his image and reputation in mind. If you're not popular and universally loved, how can you be a great player?

Because Durant stans can't admit he has a player of his level on his side. They have to diminish Westbrook, so they can make Durant look better. The same thing happens between Lebron fans, who says Bosh and Wade are trash.

Because people generally are pretty stupid
