When you block your teammate to get that rebound while working on a triple double...

You actually think that was intentional?

Not the block. Taking the board, yes.

I don't think it was intentional. I think Westbrook is so hyperfocused, that he doesn't give a shite if another teammate has a better opportunity than him.

He already had 10 rebounds at that point, no?

This would be interesting if he Rondo'd an assist at that same point in the game.

Rebounds are usually an intentional act. In fact, I don't know how one accidentally gets a rebound.

I saw that clear as day. He is not very 'cerebral' that is for sure..

I laughed hard as frick after seeing that. How in the world did he not let his player who is right there at the rim attempt that put back?

Where is that reporter at from last game when we need him?

I'm not sure I've ever seen a fanbase (as well as a GM and scoreboard operator) have their jimmies so rustled by someone they just bested.

This is amazing.

I've been screaming it all year. Russ and his teammates have all developed habits that completely go against winning basketball games in the name of getting him his triple double and MVP.

It is so strange.

It's almost like they truly care more about the MVP than anything team related.

I don't get it

Ariza appears to have been between him and Grant when Westbrook began his jump, and there were 7 players around the basket at that time.

You Rocket fans are quite ridiculous.

This is the type of post someone makes when they have no defense.

It's official, you Rocket fans have lost your damn minds.

Even the sane ones have gone off the deep end

Well this is the fanbase whose ringleader on here pimps Patrick Beverely based on an All Star Game skills competition trophy.

It has to be anger knowing they will not win a ring this year and the MVP (which many here guarenteed to Harden over and over) would somewhat soften the blow.

shite I was just happy to make the playoffs after the summer OKC had

This is okay for a fanbase to do. It becomes a serious problem when a team does it. Looking at you, Thunder.

Well that is just stupid. They were the best rebounding team in the league, and if they were foolishly disregarding the win to give Russ a triple-double, then it does make much sense that they were considerably better when Westbrook was on the court.

The reason why you are seeing such animosity is because we must endure listening to how great this guy is, when the truth is that he doesn't make OKC great, and they are barely good.

I personally have referenced him to this guy..



Such similarities that it isn't funny. A killer, who can easily kill himself and all around him.

OK. Well when that actually happens then we can worry about this problem. Right now it's a stupid problem conjured up in your own mind.
