It’s just too late man. Analyst have been telling him he needs to throttle the aggressiveness for nearly a decade. Wall listened, Russ hasn’t

wall also learned to shoot 3pters and improved jumpers.

First 3 years: 32.9% 16ft+ and 24.3% from 3
Next 5 years: 36.8% 16ft+ and 34.0% from 3

The issue for Westbrook isn't the aggressiveness, the issue is poor shot selection and failing to improve those bad shots to at least make them reasonable.

I learned to love Westbrook's style of play and how he can play at 100% all game. The issue is him going at 100% leads him to play reckless to his weaknesses.

Rubio made a 3pt shot in his face
He goes down and tries to shoot one to respond. smarter decision would have been to drive since Gobert wasn't in position, he had a decent lane and he's fast enough to get there.
