That’s a low IQ take bubba

Pretty well established that Russ rebounding allowed the team to push transition basketball at a great speed than a big rebounding and was a fundamental part of the teams gameplan

They were below average on offense and a great player like oladipo went to waste that year bc russ was more interested in a triple double than winning.

Rick Carlisle on James Harden: "He's playing a different game than the rest of us are playing. It's really an amazing phenomenon to watch."

Carlisle on Harden (continued): "The level of consistency he's developed with this style is something we've never seen before... To control the game the way he controls the game offensively is really a unique thing to watch."


I agree rick we have never seen anything like it before.

It’s amazing how little you understand how an actual NBA roster works.

Oladipo was thrust in to a role that wasn’t even supposed to be his (had KD stayed). And let’s not forget he played through a major wrist injury.

Sipo was never going to work next to Russ you don’t play two slashers next to each other. He had to try and be a different player and suffered, not because of Russ being selfish but because their playing styles were too similar.

Short term it was a bad trade but we turned it into PG13 so a long term win

He had his first year of his career where he didn’t improve in OKC... And it was bc of russ stat chasing.


You are like some of the low iq pellies fan we have here. . You win one regular season game and think you are big and bad and come vomit all over the board... when wcf gets here you’ll be back to lukering.

When you have great players who want it to work. It will work. But the players have to be both great AND want it to work. Russ was having too much fun chasing triple double to make sure Vic found his groove.

Perhaps the blame should lie with Dipo, too content with being a big fish in a small pond at Orlando and again now in Indy

He was replaced and George is having a career year

Highs in points, rebounds, steals, 3pt% matching a career high in assist per game

Clearly the Russ effect and energy is rubbing off on him

Fails to point out that while Westbrook sets the consecutive triple double record, Paul George, who is having the best year of his career, has scored 36 or more points in eight of those 10 games, including a 41-point triple double of his own tonight

You disappeared for almost a month when the Kawhi-less Spurs lead by 38 year old Manu Ginoblu pushed Harden’s shite in 2 years ago.

So please tell me more about how I or anyone else disappears.

Don't forget the "vacations" when the Rockets were sucking earlier in the season

look okc is having a great year. But they can’t touch CC or GSW in the playoffs. CC beat GOAt twice this year and we still have the requisite respect for them. you okc fan win a regular season game and think you can take on the big dogs. You can’t.

Or was that where you claimed (once again) that you weren’t able to watch the game? Despite it being an elimination game?

It’s hard to keep up with your tomfoolery.

I’m still betting on troll though and kudos for that. Hoping beyond hope it’s nof autism because then I’ll feel bad.
