Russell Westbrook has finally figured it out. ONE three point attempt in his last 4 gms.

Over that span, he's averaging 35 pts, 9.3 assists, and 10.5 rebounds with a TS% of 62.4%

He's taking it to the rack like crazy and not settling for jumpers.

I never thought I'd see a very efficient Russell Westbrook, but his shot selection has been superb recently. He dropped 45 pts and 10 assists tonight on 27 shots. 59% FG%, 69% TS%.

Did Morey teach him the impossible? Show him data where he was most efficient and give the best chance of winning

His last 19 games(where I believe he is figuring out to shoot less and less 3s) he has been GREAT.

Averaging 30 points 8.5 rebounds 7.5 assists on about 50% shooting, ~56% TS.

If Harden can put an end to his atrocious shooting performances they might be onto something. When Westbrook is on like this and like he was the other night, Harden has no business missing 16 3s. The game was somewhat close tonight because Harden was 3-13 and 0-6 from 3. At least he picked and chose when to throw up bricks tonight.

If Westbrook can show that he can be trusted to play smart and within the team, Harden really needs to chill tf out with his monster shooting fiascos.

So Westbrook has basketball IQ of a high school junior?

It’s not hard to figure out if you’re bad at shooting 3s. It’s not hard to figure out to move closer to the basket for easier shots.

This isn’t impressive. It’s sad that a professional took this long to do something about his game.
