[@fazed362]

@@chasenickles260 I’ve never seen more nonsense in a comment by someone who was being unironic. Durant choked especially in the golden state series where Westbrook played better. Durant shot 28% from 3 that series and you want Russ to be passing to him? Russ also averaged 11.3 assists per game that series so I know you’re lying. Why don’t you give me some proof to back it up instead of blanket statements where you make shit up. After kd left Russ carried a bad team to 47 wins while leading the league in player efficiency rating, offensive box minus, value over replacement player, overall box minus etc. pretty much everything u said about him that period was objectively wrong. On top of that Russ led the league in pace which is why him getting boards and having teammates run was beneficial. He was one of the best transition players and it’s a crucial part of his game. Which of course you wouldn’t know because you know little to nothing about how he actually plays. He also has a career 74% or something win rate when he has a triple double so according to you when Russ pads his stats he wins at an above championship level team rate. You, at the very least, realize how stupid that sounds right? On the lakers he ended the season’s last 10 games averaging 22.2ppg 7.4rpg, 7.1apg on 52.1%fg and 41.5%3pt. The team went 2-8 and with the 10th game they eliminated themselves from play in contention. So even when Russ played at an incredibly high level, his team failed to win and so you blame him. Makes sense right? On top of that Russ and Lebron don’t have a great fit and AD was out half the season. I could go further in detail on everything I said but I’m not going to waste in my time. Before you embarrass yourself with your lack of knowledge on the topic at least do some sort of research.

[@drewk8472]

The story of the game was that Nurk broke his leg earlier that season and everyone in Portland was devastated, and nobody had seen him, but when the Blazers cut the fourth quarter lead to 8 he came back in the arena and they showed him on the big screen and the whole crowd got back into the game. That was when Portland was willed to victory.

Just PG13 or Westbrook have the ball. Even offensive player Schroder isn't being used at all.
