Westbrook benched in Lakers' OT win vs. Knicks, LAL better without Russ? | NBA | UNDISPUTED

Los Angeles Lakers all star LeBron James returned to the court with a 29-point triple-double in the Lakers comeback overtime win versus the New York Knicks Saturday. However, Russell Westbrook was benched down the stretch. The former MVP scored 5 points on 1-of-10 shooting, and when asked about leaving him off the floor, Lakers’ head coach Frank Vogel said quote “you just make tough decisions in the spirit of whatever the team needs to win a game." Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe answer if the Lakers should bench Westbrook in crunch time.

I’ll try to put this in perspective for you guys. Why would a man who was sleeping on the streets and turned himself into an MVP listen to a crowd of LA brats who have never played, and know nothing about the sport? Why would he listen to you, a loser on your keyboard complaining from behind closed doors? Russ is a legend. A top 75 player. He hasn’t fit well into the Lakers system, and that’s a fact. If his contract wasn’t so huge it would open up cap space to get more solid rotational players. It is what it is. You really shouldn’t criticize good people who have accomplished 100 times more than you could ever hope to. If Russ listened to people like you and that crowd, he would still be homeless. Thank god he never did, and never will.

[@dododump3144]

@@benry9250 Russ had less than 10 points on 10% from the field and 0% from 3 if I was him id listen to the crowd. And him being an MVP doesn’t mean he’s still playing like it. Melo is top 75 and he’s a bench player. Being an MVP or top 75 player has nothing to do with how he’s playing now.

What we are witnessing with Russ is the end. His game is built on hustle and speed not so much in shooting and basketball I.Q his speed is declining and the hustle is wildly out of control. He's getting old can't finish at the rim 13yrs in the NBA it's a wrap.

[@tarusnash9632]

💯

[@kevinhale8329]

A WRAP

[@leonardoyi3183]

his hustle is questionable, as he doesn't play defense for much of the game, and he has been like that at least since he started getting triple doubles...he cares about rebounds (not about playing defense). He cares about assists (most of those are not easy baskets, and most of his erratic passes leads to his high turnovers ratio). His triple doubles doesn't hold any real value. His only real strenght was his athleticism, but right now his athleticism ain't anywhere near what it was

[@cwehden]

Russ is playing purely because of his status and history, if you look at his actually ability to play the game today he should be coming off the bench or simply let go from the league, he's done.

[@Jdot2tact]

His ego is hindering his greatness. Russ always gives effort but dosent think. His athleticism would hide that but now that he’s aging , he’s true skill is showing . He never upgraded his game. He plays the same way he always has. U see MJ,Kobe and Bron change their style of play as they age. Russ dosent understand that being an atheltic freak won’t last forever. Giannis would follow the same fate as Russ if he had his mindset. Giannis knows he can get 30 and 10 just from being athletic but keeps adding to his game cause he knows skill> genetics. Russ still is a freak and if he practiced and perfected his skills more as a point guard, he’d be lethal in this offense. If u notice all the bloopers and lowlights, he always gets open with ease. He just dosent have the skill to finish the play . He still has that a 100mph motor but he’s not as athleticism and that’s an Basketball IQ problem. He needs to learn to slow down and understand basketball and how it works.

[@feroce82]

@@Jdot2tact Shaq himself tells him to slow his game. It's too late for him now, especially because he don't want to change his game. Russ played like that his whole life and he needs to be the primary ball-handler to be effective, that's impossible when LeBron is in your team.

[@seanbell69]

You are absolutely ridiculous. Russell Westbrook was traded into the worst system he's ever played in. His unwillingness to change his game hurts him terribly, but we saw even in Washington that he can still play at an elite level. Westbrook just has the same syndrome as Kevin Love and Chris Bosh, Lebron is failing to dominate the standings, and we need a scapegoat

Shannon said what I’ve been saying. Russ strictly relied on his athleticism and never bothered to adjust his game for after his athleticism fades.

[@pjbrownemusic]

This is not to say that Russ didn't, but 7/8 of the older players in the NBA have never adjusted their game either, and we are not talking about them.

[@colbyjackjohnson4111]

What's frustrating as a Lakers fan is the majority of this revolves around mental adjustment - watching how Russ' athletic ability could translate into a system where he plays entirely off the ball cutting in for layups /dunks and runs fast breaks only if he'd just play defense, no jump shots ever and he could score 20 a night easy off of playing into Lebron's passing ability.

The fact that russ is a top 75 player solely based on his triple doubles still amazes me.

[@edwardfitzgerald3877]

It is not the sole reason. Russ' achievements qualify him and then some: 1x MVP, 2x scoring champion, 5x leader in number of games played in a season, 9x All-NBA selections, 9x NBA All-Star, 2x NBA All-Star game MVP, 1x NBA All-Rookie, 7x NBA Western Conference player of the month awards, 15x NBA Western Conference player of the week awards, 2x NBA Western Conference Rookie of the week awards, Only player in NBA history to win the scoring title, MVP award, and average a triple-double in the same season, Only player in NBA history to win 2 All-Star game MVP awards back-to-back, 1st All-time in number of triple doubles in a single season, 1st All-time in number of career triple double, etc.

Skip and others called it very early on. Russell Westbrick was brought to the team to be a scapegoat and the 'reason' why LeBron and AD never won another championship.
