EXPOSED: the REAL Reasons Russell Westbrook Sucks
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 июл 2022
- This video is about Los Angeles Laker Russell Westbrook and why he isn't good at basketball. Russell could easily improve his game by watching this video.
After studying Russell Westbooks best and worst games, I can actually say I learn something new every time. I have realized that he could easily become a top player in the league again by fixing 6 things with his game. I need to also preface that I actually like Russ, I love his loyalty to his teams and the passion he plays with…however…This video is not going to be easy to watch if your name is Russell Westbrook. Your Coaches haven’t held you accountable, but I will.
The first Issues - 1. After studying the film, the first thing I noticed is that Westbrook has two different jump shots, and one has a major flaw with regards to his shooting mechanics. When Russell shoots the ball, sometimes he twists his hand on the follow through. This tells me that the ball is likely being released by his middle and ring finger. This is part of the reason why he has an inconsistent shot as this will cause the ball to spin and go sideways. . That is only part of the problem, he also has a sleight thumb flick in his shot, which is another reason why we so inconsistencies. Any time he has that weird release , you are usually going to see him miss short and sideways.
He does have great balance on his shot and very good energy transfer as he straightens his knees and back at the same time.
2. Defense doesn’t guard him
3.Boxing Out
4.Bad Body Language
5.Turnovers - Led league in turnovers 4 times, was second 5 other times.
A)Bad hands
6. Decision Making/IQ
Gooder Gang, I'm buying one of you Starbucks again if we can get more this one to more than 93.6 Likes! Love you all! ♥
Lol 3 6 9.... like what you did here
As Michael Washington said "Dude will FINALLY make a 3 and start pounding his chest... "
Thank you for your vids. Not a huge basketball fan, but your vids draw me in. Great job. I bet you will have over a million before you realize it. Im gonna help by sharing this.
STYX YOU ROCK MY SOCKS! I appreciate that!
@@gooderofficial AGREED!!!! I'm hooked now from these
@@gooderofficialhis name is no Russell Westbrook his name is Russell Westrash because he absolutely sucks how in tf did he make it in the nba like the guy sucks like fr
I’m excited to see more videos - but how are you going to make videos once you get hired for an NBA team?
LOL! Some people in this niche actually do. However, would have to be a lot of $$$ to pry me away from my job + RUclips
I was thinking radio or TV. Honestly that would be a huge mistake.
This is a great video on Westbrook, who use to be such a force. It is hard to imagine he has gotten so lazy, which is what most of this is about, especially on defense. Most pros are hungrier than he has become, which is amazing because early on he was nearly unstoppable on the drive in the open court and more than made up for his flaws with his upside of speed and ability to distribute. Like many people in all of life, maybe Westbrook likes sitting on his laurels. He is such a bad fit for the Lakers, a team that does not run as much as would provide the old Westbrook with opportunity to drive or dish. He has never been a great half court offensive guy. He was a stallion in the open court, not unlike John Wall to some extent. Unfortunately, stallions eventually go out to pasture. I am only glad, for now, he is on the Lakers. I am also momentarily pleased with what the Celtics have added...
Yeah Tom, absolutely! Russ is not a good fit on the lakers because they already have so many shooting issues! He just makes it worse. It baffles me how someone who is so competitive with his spirit, just does not compete on defense at all. Sometime I actually wonder if he has ADHD...
man the Celtics are going to be so good next season. I need my Raptors to get KD to have a chance!
@@gooderofficial what about Lebron? He’s ball dominant he plays no defense he is a poor leader… lakers not winning anything even with kyrie bet your RUclips channel
@@gooderofficial it’s no spacing Russ is without them on the court look at games Lebron and AD lost to Portland without Russ go watch it Lebron sucks and AD soft
@@zoidzilla348 I am on your side with that bet my man! I wouldn't be surprised if they don't make playoffs TBH...depends on AD health!
@@zoidzilla348 absolutely. The Lakers won't win without shooters...could have had Lowry for cheaper....biggest mistake by GM
Great video! I thought that this was just going to be another video just pointlessly trashing Westbrook, but it was a genuine analysis of what he's been doing wrong. Would love to see Russ fix these problems and help the Lakers go far!
Thanks Jackson! Appreciate that. I hope Westbrook can improve his game, he has a great energy about him and I love his loyalty to his teams!
That’s one thing I’ve learned; I’m a small guy who started playing basketball casually maybe 3 or 4 years ago with a COVID year in between, but I make up for my lack of experience and skill in effort and it’s helped me develop higher iq (I’m no lebron James mind you) and specifically everything on the defensive side of the ball; I may not be a bucket getter and might make bonehead plays on offense, but I’m going to hustle back, box out, and play the best defense I can possibly play.
Edit: The reason I said all this is because a lot of the times I felt like the Russell Westbrook on offense, but I’m not gonna throw a hissy fit and cry about it. I’m gonna do my best to make up for it.
That is awesome Ray! What NBA player would you say you most play like now??
@@gooderofficial play style wise I think im a Marcus smart on the defensive end, minus the theatrics and the physical strength in the post; and then on the offensive side of the ball I play like a deaaron fox. Of course, the skill is nowhere near theirs, but I try to imitate their play styles 😆
@@RayShooterAP That's awesome dude! Great players to model your game after! Mine is definitely Steve Nash on offence...and maybe Lonzo on D, tough to say! It's always fun to think about that stuff!
great job with the analysis, keep getting gooder 🔥🔥🔥
Bennnn Kelly
Man this Channel is so underrated
You for sure are next up !
Laurits you have the greatest name of all time. P.S. THIS COMMENT PUMPED ME UP!
Quality video thanks coach
This dude is terrible: has added NOTHING to his offensive
repertoire in 15+ years.. he’s ridiculous and his fans are even more ridiculous!!!!
He is garbage! All his stat padded accolades with no ring to show for it is a taint to the league. Ones gotta be stupid to not realise that wen he was in OKC the team management let him stat pad & achieve his record breaking accolades just so theres hype built around their top franchise player so they can fill the seats up, sell jerseys etc etc & make their damn revenue. It baffles me that people can't see the obvious despite having eyes...guess they must b short on brains.
"Russ, I know you're subscribed to this channel and you need to pay attention"
Russ downloads video to study, then unsusbscribes.
Hahahahaahahah! Comment of the day right here
Great analysis especially on the lack of defence. If it was me I’d look at this constructive criticism and take it to heart and try to improve. His statistics alone should be enough to start taking a look at yourself
Thanks 😊! Maybe Billy boy could teach him how to play D
Haha such respect!
That lack of criticism from the nba and fans is why he never improved. Now everyone sees what i've been saying for years; the guy got no game. He is never winning anything.
As a Westbrook fan this hurts to watch but I can appreciate this breakdown. I do believe he needs to improve on those things. Love your videos. Keep up the good work!
Joey thanks! Definitely a tough watch, but very correctable things he could make !
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this man. Even Russ fans agree with this
You are welcome! I actually love Russ - really want to see him do well. I love his loyalty to his teams!
agreed!!!!!
why does Russ even have fans
Film don’t lie. Great video bro. Russ is the most frustrating great player ever.
He’s not great at a time he was good
His efficiency is abysmal.
money must be low so you had to make some off the number 1 trending nba player
low-key marketing compliment?
I cant people were blaming THIS on lebron. Especially that defense. Infuriating
100%! Lebron been solid this season on D as well!
Do or die for the lakers this season 😬
100%!!!! I hope Russ watches this one … 🙈
How many times the title gon change 🤣
Hahahahahahahahaha. This comment actually made my night. I’ve been trying and trying, but this video looks like it is slooooowing down unfortunately
@@gooderofficial Whatchu mean slowing down
@@ramgoel8888 the views have started to dry up!
Great video brav ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍
Great video! Russ has/had so much potential, but hasn’t lived up to it.
Thanks man!
The dude became an MVP, how did he not live up to the potential. Unless you're talking about on the Lakers , which there really wasn't any potential.
Russell has been the opposite of efficiency his entire career. It’s why ppl have just abandoned teams with him on it. He’s playing the same way on the lakers his entire career. 28-30% drom 3. Barely 40% from field. 4 turnovers. He wasn’t held accountable bc he was on shitty OKC teams doing the same thing with more minutes bc there was no one else.
Wtf he literally has an MVP and has been to the finals?? Certified HOF easy and he didn’t fulfill his potential? Please.
Get GOODER Russell!!!!
Hahahaha! I’ll send him a shirt!
The problem with Westbrook is his laziness.the fact he can show the basic fundimentals one minute and not the next is down to a lack of effort.
Rus and harden are the same coin.only difference was harden can consistently score.
Their ego and social lives get in the way.they both crack under pressure.
Perfectly states! You’re hired for the channel my man!
I jus want Russ to try harder on defense by that jus stay on ur man don’t try anything crazy jus stay on ur man
LeBron has the same issue with body language.
Great point! It’s super bad sonoften
He just standing there looking for the next 3ple double
Hahahaah. Honestly been pretty impressed with his play this year !
Never utilizes a floater, or soft finishes around the basket, jusy brute force and athleticism
He said verbatim "don't need a floater coz I'll just dunk on them" in an interview before
@@Colonel.B.Sanders that’s ridiculous
Is it laziness or is he frustrated and trying to figure it out? To me he seemed lost out there.
dang my man
😜😎
I don't know what happened to Russ. He looks like a different player.
Weak mental game I would argue. Would benefit with some mental coaching and mind mapping/neautral thinking
When you get $47 mil to play basketball, his mental game is the thing that really should be embarrassing. His exit interviews, his nightly post game interviews. Just horrible. I think he just put himself out of the NBA for real.
Everyone is always sleeping on that mental game man…can be a huge advantage/disadvantage
Is he following through with just his pointer finger on his one type of jumper?💀🤣
it comes off pointer usually! But I have seen it come off of other fingers as well (I actually have that issue as well and it's really tough to correct!)
All this stuff he obviously knows about.
Good video but let's be honest bro...westbrook has never seen this channel and definitely not subscribed lmao
Hahaha- yeah just part of my strange humour 😳
Dudes not in the league telling nba players how to play is crazy
And Westbrook in the league and don’t know what to do
@@getoutyourfeelings2613 he’s been playing well the last few games
Cap
So much cap
@@gooderofficial free Russ from letoxic James and the Lebron system
Why he gets paid so much ???
50million!! Signed a long term deal on his prime..then fired his agent
6 things? Lmao. Yeah ok
AGREED, GREAT BREAKDOWN
THANKS BUDDDDDDDYYYYY
There's a reason he's called westbrick
this video made russ play good the past few games
wouldn't that be something! haha - he's actually doing a lot of the suggestions!
Russ doesn’t want to be there. The whole
Lakers organization and fans gave up on him why would he do his best if y’all still gonna blame him ? Sounds crazy but players do to body language is a thing I pay attention to after mistakes in bron and AD don’t make the situation any better I just feel like they don’t have his back they let the media throw everything on Russ he was playing good in the beginning of last season he had like 3 bad games in a stretch lakers crucified him he ain’t been fuckin with y’all since ! Y’all
Ruined him
He still a good player just needs to find the right fit for him and actually adjust his game or take a back seat as the 6th man otherwise I wouldn't be surprised if Russ is out of the league soon. Hopefully things will work out for him. I just don't want to see this man out of the league.
I am totally with you. Absolutely love his competitive spirit. It's a shame coaches likely haven't done enough to help him grow his IQ
@@gooderofficial He makes every team he is on worse. Sine he came in the league I kept telling people "he will never win a ring." He relied solely on athleticism and never honed any skills; no fundamentals. He's a street baller, nothing more. The only player in history that is best at guarding himself. He ruined the game for me. As a laker fan I want him out. As a durant fan, i wanted him out. You want to see a real player? Watch Jokic, Doncic, or Embiid.
He needs to leave. No one wants him. He could go play street ball, but he is never winning anything even on a super team. He's an empty stat packer. Fans and the NBA coddled him to much. Thats why he felt no need to improve.
Great vid!!
Thanks so much!!
This is no mystery it's because He can't play.
I’ve said it abunch of times I wish there was a way to swap cp3 brain into Westbrook body. Would be the best player in the league maybe ever.
Wow! Dude- this actually would be INSANE. Maybe they could have a baby?
Russ should watch this, maybe he'll realize that his career is in danger.
Thank you for the video 🙏
Would love to work with him 1 on 1! I haven't had a chance to work with an NBA player for a long time
@@gooderofficial Wouldn't help. Too late. What your saying he should do, should've been done a long time ago.
trending folly video lame ,o
c'mon now, I just did it so we could become friends together.
Faxxxx
🥳🥳🥳
I've gotta tell Rusell Westbrook about this.
Man I honestly made this video with that intention. This is how I make videos for athletes when they request, have to be firm
That is one hell of a detailed analysis on someone who's psychological attitude and lack of accountability have made him look goofy and a stat paddler
The definition of open for a reason. He literally shoots worse than overweight 40 year olds at local basketball courts.
Hahahaha- hey watch yourself, I’m 36 bro! 😳
he only had 1 bad season 💀💀💀
Did you hear the stats on turnovers?
@@gooderofficial imma be completely honest G imma meat ride the hell outta westbrook because he my favorite player
@@gooderofficial this season going to be different though because its a possibility he gonna get trades and not really be on a team full of all stars
@@godfather8472 the same things will apply the next season
@@GreatLakes2551 wanna lock in on a bet?
Thats why they call him westbrick
I tried not to all video, just in case he watches…purely coming from coaching perspective
Westbrook is
In all seriousness he is highly
Over rated and has been his whole career
Edit : I think I finally understand his problem other then he just sucks .
It’s his emotions , he plays way to emotional and needs to dial it back like 1 million on the chill dial
oh man - it's so confusing to me. He needs to dial his emotions back, yet at the same time, get way more emotional on the defensive end! hahahaha
@@gooderofficial right ? Haha less emotion more effort ? I dunno I think
He’s unable to be fixed at this point . He’s set in his ways and that’s it … but that being said , once he is off his super max , he can still be very useful for contenders ONLY for getting him on vet minimums or like a MLE , maybe 10 million at the very most … at that point the risk and bad tendencies might be worth the reward since he isn’t hampering 1/4-1/3 of your entire salary . Also he has to come off the bench and most likely won’t be able to close games , but he would be a decent “floor general” ( I say that hesitantly ) 6th man when the stars are resting .
@@Wickedtingzz I honestly don't even know if I would want him on my team for the MINIMUM! I don't know how good he would be...definitely bench role for sure tho!
I can't wait to see op in the nba
