Why not just say how you feel about Lebron in your signature and be done with it? Do you have to plaster this (bleep) all over every thread?


Lol Whoa! I was just responding to someone that responded to me. Lol I was just saying that I feel Russ will be talked about more than Bron in LA, if LA wins the championship. Before and when we won, it was as far as Bron took us, pretty much, but now I believe that we could only win it all if we give Russ the keys, at this point of Bron's career. Also, Russ is more effective on the ball and more people moves when he has the ball, including Bron. Not to mention, Bron have been shooting more 3's. He moves better off the ball than Russ too.That had nothing to do with me not liking Bron or me thinking he is soft. Actually, outside of how soft I think he is, I don't mind him. But I feel Russ will be more talked about because Russ is from LA and because of Russ's killer, relentless mentality. He comes off as more likable.

Don't ever compare Westbrook to Lebron. Lebron was a smarter player than Westbrook in his rookie season.

Who is comparing Russ to Bron? Bron is a smarter player.

It doesn't mean you win all the time, but Russ also doesn't have a shot and can be a turn over machine. 10? Sheeeesh...

Meanwhile, Westbrook has one good game against a lottery team and you have someone talking about murals and being a bigger icon than Lebron lol

That was a ridiculous statement 3 hours ago. This loss just made an already ridiculous comment age like milk.

I didn't say bigger icon than LeBron. I said he is gonna be talked about in LA more than Bron, and I said if we win the championship. That is when murals would come.. I also said, give Russ the keys and I still believe that. So if you are gonna quote me, don't do it out of context.

What you saw vs the Spurs, then what you saw vs the Thunder. Is the perfect microcosm of what you get with Russell Westbrook, the good and the bad.

Better than DS, but not by much. DS is a great defender and better shooter (sadly)

Missed the game.

Team worst +-. 10 Turnovers. 40% from the field. Looks like he's still trying to figure things out. I'm sure it'll get better with time. Interesting that he still had 20/13/14.

and DS is not getting paid 44 mill a year. DS didn't cost KCP, KUZ, AC, TREZ and a 1st rounder.

DS was not a good fit and we doubled down on that and got worse fit. Genius work

Who cares that he had 20/13/14. I don’t need my PG for rebounding. I can get that from my bigs. I don’t need my PG scoring if he doesn’t it at low efficiency and his assists are worthless when he has 10 turnovers.

He was trying to figure out why he was wide open on the perimeter and kept jacking jumpers in the 2nd half. Still hasn’t figured out his jumper sucks and teams are making him wide open on purpose.
