The game probably should have been a blowout honestly. Russ’s missed shots brought the Suns back in the game in the 3rd quarter. But in the end, you’re right, Russ made the clutch plays to win.
Kawhi and Russ were the MVPS of that game last night, they played much harder than I thought they would vs the Suns in Phoenix too!! Russ 3-19 and yet still being such a major factor on the clippers win tells you just how much energy and hussle he had on the defensive end yesterday
It’s really difficult to give praise to a guy that went 3 of 19. Regardless of the fact that he sealed the win for them. They wouldn’t have been in that position if he wouldn’t have been so atrocious shooting the ball. But, all that matters in the end is that they won. That being said, I suppose he’s a could pick up at a vet minimum. Lakers are really happy about not having him anymore. I’d love to have him on the bench at the vet minimum.
Russ was stupendous down the stretch. But my god, have you ever seen a softer Center than Ayton? Russ was eating off the glass and big for nothing Ayton just stood there and watched. That was embarrassing.
It’s all about the energy for Russ. This team genially loves Russ. They love Russ. Ty had to remind him that he’s not there for JUST scoring. Leave that to everybody else. He’s there to bring energy from the first to the fourth. Add that to Kawhi playing out of his mind on both ends. The bench playing well. If they can get past the Suns in this series and PG can get right then they could honestly win this year
That stretch in the fourth quarter where KD and Kawhi were guarding each other was incredible. KD's ball denial really helped limit Kawhi's touches down the stretch and gave PHX a chance to get the W
@@willmarinac5201 easy there feller, finna give yourself a heart attack before the game 7 elimination. just hang in there bud, 6 more and you can watch Suns fizzle out (and I am a Dubs fan that is actually NOT looking forward to dealing with PHX at all haha)
@@TheShepdawg9 you don't really tbh as long as you bully the other team's defense around and keep getting 2nd, 3rd chance shots, etc you could score as inefficiently as you want and win 😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@jdwhite1265 If he doesn't shoot 3/19 this game is over muuuuuch sooner lmaooo, virgins praise him for defense, the same defense that wouldn't be needed if he shot at least 35% lmaoooooooooo
@@pavlegrebenarevic382 virgins praise him for his defense? What are you 13? You copy and pasted this comment 5+ times. Tell me your a wierdo without telling me your a wierdo.
Kawhi put on a big performance with 38 pts. Russ despite 9 pts and 3/19 shooting, he was able to get rebounds and key offensive rebound late in the game. He made two free throws in the fourth quarter in clutch time and block Devin Booker shots and throw off him out of bounds. This is going to be an intense series.
This is gonna be a heck of a series. Russell Westbrook didn’t do anything offensively, but he did all the little things that helped the Clippers win. Getting offensive rebounds, making defensive plays, including the great chase down block on Booker and knocked the ball out of bounds off him. Great game 1 win by the Clippers.
@@Goofy8907 people don’t count assists as offense for some reason, same rosen people call KD the best offensive player ever despite him being an average all time playmaker
Offensive rebounds, game saving block, clutch free throws, that was a remarkable game by Russ. Plus Kawhi outscored KD, Booker and CP3 combined in the 2nd half 🙌🏻👏🏻
I think people forget the two best defenders we have seen on Durant has been PJ Tucker and Tony Allen. They get under his legs and play him physically, I think its not a bad look to continue to throw Russ at KD mixed in with the taller guys just so KD has to keep switching his strategy
If he doesn't shoot 3/19 this game is over muuuuuch sooner lmaooo, virgins praise him for defense, the same defense that wouldn't be needed if he shot at least 35% lmaoooooooooo
I wonder what Russel has to do for Skip to say something positive about him, like go 10/10 6/6 from free throw and no turnovers and he will still find something to say
Russ's block followed immediately by knocking the ball out of bounds off Booker to keep possession was both hilarious and brilliant defensive basketball. It takes great instincts, athleticism and high IQ to do such an effective succession of moves.
Russ was great but this was a signature Kawhi playoff performance. Apart from Eric Gordon early in the game, the Clippers looked hopeless offensively. They had nothing going but their defense which kept the Suns very low early on helped them maintain in the game and Kawhi just took over. He is the best player in this series because he's just too good on both ends. He'll make KD work for his shots and drop 30-35 on your head on the othe hand and he'll do it in 55/40/88 splits any day of the week. Kawhi is sensational and the only players that are ahead of him currently are Giannis and Jokic but if Giannis is injured and Jokic isn't fully 100% too, we might have to crown this man as the best player on the planet like we did in 2019. He is from another planet.
It's cuz I always tweet him "blasphemy is against my religion. I'm a Clipper fan because LeBron called Kyrie a God and is always shoving alcohol bottles in my face." So now skip wants to use it as a joke 😂😂😂😂
Wow, I am actually very surprised that they gave Westbrook his props, Russ deserve much for his hard hard work regardless of the circumstances & all the hate drama he gives 110%, let’s do this clippers nation
Why did skip and Shannon say KD took one shot in the fourth? I’m watching the game now on league pass and he’s taken 3 shots already and only 4 mins have gone
There is no "right" way, and the so-called "fans" need to realize that. Players make business decisions just like the owners do: they're not playing for "fun" or to earn loyalty points with the fans just so the owners can make decisions in their own best interests without ridiculous expectations from fans.
Testament to my Clippers' depth and Suns lack of it: RoCo and Morris received DNPs, Russ shot 3 for 19, no PG, and we still won the game. Suns' bench: 8 pts. Powell had 14 alone.
i just have a feeling that LAC will win it all this year. Whenever you have a player like Russ who shows determination and that never say die attitude it elevates the team's spirit and willpower to win, then you add KL, PG13, Norman Powell, and a very deep bench, man that will cause some major problems to the opposing team
Skip is SEETHING knowing Russ played well in the clutch against KD’s team 🤣🤣🤣 Russ is one of my favorite players to watch so I’m so glad he played elite defense and got this win, despite the fact that he was out there building a house on the court 😭 Also, Kawhi was out there looking like the best player in the world. Shame he can’t stay healthy for a long period of time.
I have doubt it Westbrook many times throughout this season but the way he hustled to get those offensive rebounds and the way he played defense shows me he's willing to commit to any coaches schemes and he's a valuable player
Russ isn't known to be that great of a defender, but it was awesome to see him go all out knowing he was shooting the Clippers out of bigger leads. That's what you have to do if you're not shooting well, go all out on defense.
@@kpemb84 yeah I’m not talking about his college career. That was back in the 2000s. We have 10+ years of evidence that Westbrook hasn’t played a ton of great defense in the nba. I’ll be more specific: At the NBA level, he hasn’t played a ton of defense
@@louiet890 definitely he was. He just switched his game around in the NBA, where he’s been playing for over a decade. I should have been more specific.
According to Skip, it's never KD's fault... 2016 WCF Game 5: *12-31,* 3-11 from deep 2016 WCF Game 6: *10-31,* *1-8* from deep But let's blame Russ for blowing that 3-1 lead. His bad decisions made KD miss 20 shots in those games. 2022 First Round Game 1: *9-24,* 1-5 from deep 2022 First Round Game 2: *4-17,* 1-2 from deep 2022 First Round Game 3: 6-11, 2-3 from deep 2022 First Round Game 4: *13-31,* 3-11 from deep In Game 1, Kyrie has 39 pts and they still lost. In Game 4, KD missed a late FT which eventually led to the sweep. But KD is never blamed for bad shooting games. Blame Russ. Blame Kyrie. Blame KD's toe. It's like that 2017 and 2018 Game 3 ending is on loop in Skip's memory and he doesn't blame KD for the other times he failed which he did constantly. He only sees KD of 2017 and 2018 which are 5 & 6 years ago... KD hasn't won a ring in 5 years. Hasn't really been healthy the last 4. But Skip thinks KD can do no wrong while he bashes everyone around KD for his failures. I guess Kyrie's lack of vaccination made KD shoot 38% against Boston guarded by little Jayson Tatum, right? I guess we need to blame Deuce's presence for KD missing that late FT in Game 4. Blame Kyrie's fasting during Ramadan. Skip Bayless has become the random online troll who KD argues back to with his Twitter burner accounts. But he's supporting this cupcake snake instead of trolling him. You broke Ernestine's heart, Skip. You picked KD over Michael Kawhi Leonard Jordan. Time for Kawhi to break yours like your Kevin DoCant and Dallas Cows.. 🐮 have done to you over and over again.
Kawhi might be Russ best teammate it is a small sample size.. but he is in his prime & by far the greatest 2 way playa he’s ever been on team with. At times a much greater offensive threat than KD & Harden too especially in BIG moments. So this could be start of something special to come
Tbh is Skip hate seems personal. 3/19 is bad but he made 2 clutch free throws & clutch block. He had 5 OREB & you saw how they overcome that well he/they did. Skip please stop the hate bro at some point you have to check yourself & be tired of hating somebody so bad.
Depth, coaching and hustle will keep LA in this series. I still think Phx wins going against a Clippers team without PG, but LA is too gritty to go down easy.
Skip really is one dimension on basketball. There is more to basketball then just scoring. When you do more on the floor. Rebounding , assist, defense, free throws. Skip is all about numbers. He has no eye test
I am a Russ hater cuz I am a KD fan. He was the best player on the court in the final 3 minutes. He was phenomenal. Give the man his respect Skip. He is a former MVP. Shannon is right. Russ don't cheat the game.
The Clippers were better with Russ on the bench, praise his defense but can we be consistent with how we judge performances? If anybody else shot 3/19, a few clutch defensive saves wouldnt make it a good game for him
Kudos to Russ.. after copping a lot of heat the last few seasons in the Lakers, his confidence to keep shooting and keep contesting is admirable. Lessgooo Clips!!!

“He blocked kd from the back a couple times” 😂
Skip really is one dimension on basketball. There is more to basketball then just scoring. When you do more on the floor. Rebounding , assist, defense, free throws. Skip is all about numbers. He has no eye test
well in defense of skip, russ was the reason the suns almost came back the game because of his stagnant offense
“Russell Westbrook is against my basketball religion” 😂😂😂
I dont think we woulda had this win if we didn't pick up Russ...Thank you Russ for giving it your all!
Russ doesn’t miss clutch free throws, people that actually watch games and don’t listen to media narratives know that!
I am a Russ hater cuz I am a KD fan. He was the best player on the court in the final 3 minutes. He was phenomenal. Give the man his respect Skip. He is a former MVP. Shannon is right. Russ don't cheat the game.
The Clippers were better with Russ on the bench, praise his defense but can we be consistent with how we judge performances? If anybody else shot 3/19, a few clutch defensive saves wouldnt make it a good game for him
thats when we know you didnt watch the game.
Russ been a dawg fr I just wish he would've played like this for my Lakers
Goatbrook had Book and KD in a phone booth the whole game
With Embiid France is now arguably the best international team, Embiid nationalized French! Embiid, gobert and Wemby, what a frontcourt!
Kawhi is playing like Kobe🔥
Kudos to Russ.. after copping a lot of heat the last few seasons in the Lakers, his confidence to keep shooting and keep contesting is admirable. Lessgooo Clips!!!
Yall barely mentioned yall POINT GOD completely choking down the stretch.
He's 60 years old. Dude needs to take more of a backseat and accept a smaller role
Great performance last night 🌉😂😮😂😅
That was that old dog Russ last night. That was a great game.
Are these guys actually going to give RUSSELL Westbrook some props???? Okay, what a miracle!
It’s funny because Suns fans were talking about their bench 😂😂😂😂 which gave them only 10 points
Skip "You know it and I know it" 😂😂
If Russ go 5-9 every game this series, Suns in trouble
This is gonna be a fun 6-7 game series
3🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hey im all for Russ having a happy ending as long as he not in a Lakers uniform 😂.
I wouldn't mind him on a minimum contract. But that $47 million was the 2nd worst contract in basketball behind only Ben Simmons.
