Free from LeBron’s shackles, Westbrook thrives with another near 30pt triple double

[BallsOut]

When LeBron had Westbrook and 3 superstars on his team, he missed the playoffs last season and was on the verge of missing it again this season with Westbrook.

We see what Westbrook is truly capable of now once freed from LeBron’s selfish ballhogging.

Shades of MVP Westbrook come to light. Funny what the positives of leaving Lebron ball does to a player’s game and career.

Interesting. Did his team win game 3 earlier? I must've missed it.

The last two games he's putting up 30/8/6 on surprisingly great shooting. The Lakers were just a terrible fit for him I guess.

With Kawhi and PG both playing the Clippers won't be a good fit either. He's better as the focal point and can't really be effective as anything else.

Either way, it's clear he's taking this matchup personally and is playing with more energy than even he normally comes out with. Certainly worth respect.

another?



Whats the other?

Clippers are a stellar 12-12 with WB this season. 32-26 without him.

Why? Neither George nor Kawhi need to dominate the ball and both are serious threats as shooters & cutters without the ball and they seem to have good chemistry with Russ.

Clippers have SPACING, something the Lakers really lacked around Russ. Him & Bran actually did fit quite well when AD wasn't on the court and that's because of SPACING.

Yes, let's not look at the injuries post-trade nor the schedule lol.

That coincides with Paul George getting hurt so you're being disingenuous. Just another context less win loss record provided.

Westbrook is a great floor raiser, but not the ideal 2nd, 3rd option.

Westbrook unleashed

Interesting. Did his team win game 4 this time?

LeBron can’t play with a wild and reckless, retarded basketball Forrest Gump. Especially at a similar position. He needs smart, surgical precision skilled players. Westbrick ain’t that and either is LeBron.

amazing what it does for a player when he doesn’t have to play with an uncoachable ball dominator who refuses any off ball play or defense for any legitament stretches at a time who’s main focus is accruing statistics.
