I am a fan of Russell Westbrook, but the truth is that he takes no accountability for his own poor play. It was a terrible thing to throw Frank Vogel under the bus. I do not know if there are any persons who personally know him who do tell him the no holds barred truth about his poor play this season and what he must do to improve it, as well as the need to change his attitude of lack of accountability.

Has anyone EVER said Vogel had a problem with Westbrook? I mean, he just didn't play well. That's plain and simple. He wasn't a good fit and it seems refused to tailor his game to fit the needs of the team. Westbrook is going to be on his 5th team in five years I believe. The teams he plays for isn't always the problem. It can absolutely be the man in the mirror.

Russ seems to be a nice guy, but his game just has not evolved. He hasn't developed a mid range, a 3. I mean Mj even developed his midrange despite having a really bad 3pointer,but at that time, they never really thought much about the 3. He shouldn't be blamed too much. The Lakers should know what they were getting. Russ has never evolved, heck his close range sucked so much this year even, but they still took him and gutted the team. They could've had Buddy Hield or even Demar. It's not his fault that his contract sucks as well that's why it's hard to move him. His game sucked this year sure, but the fault lies with the front office.
