@@danielmiller9012 Nah. It is up to the refs to blow the whistle. Even if you stay vertical he is coming into the lane. There will be obviously some form of contact because the defender is trying to impede the offensive player.
That is close to impossible! This has been a really physical series and there has to have been at least 4-6 "and one" opportunities for Russ. I mean he wasn't fouled even once on a scoring drive?
Only problem is that Kawhii and PG have proven to be both injury prone in the last 4 seasons so it seems unlikely you will have both available to become a true contender. Looked just like last night's game where Memphis was also getting destroyed because Ja Morant didn't get any help
I have never been a huge Westbrook fan I am a die hard KD fan. However, I have cheered for Westbrook over the last couple of years. This man has skill & the way the media did him & his family during his time as a Laker, was wrong. Wonder what they will say now. My man is showing everyone. I have to admit. Do your thing Russ but not too much, I still want Durant to win it all lol
i just want to see him play like this on both ends with some starhelp around him. if paul george and kawhi werent regulars at UCLA hospital this would be a perfect marriage.
Yea, Russ has never learned the art of flopping or getting foul calls. Some players are really great at it. Prime Harden, Austin Reaves, Anthony Davis i think is pretty good at forcing calls. Chris Paul is a master! Jordan Poole is really good at it. Some guys have a knack..... I've never known Russ to flail around on the basketball court trying to gain a foul call. If he has done it, i don't remember it. He seems to play straight up basketball but he will hack you, body check you, slap down at the ball, grab you, and foul hard.... He's extremely physical.... The one thing i would love to see more from Russ now that he is an older player is to take more charges.... To sacrifice his body more often in the team defensive scheme. I understand he is trying to avoid foul trouble but it's one of my criticisms of him as a team defender. Cause more turnovers by taking charges! Kyle Lowry is the master at it!
This maybe blasphemy, call me a fanboy, but if Russell Westbrook was born in a different era he would be short of MJ. He is just in a pussy, 3 point, flopping, load management era. He is old school.
@@Not4K19 but u see what happens when players don’t flop. Ppl just only see the flopping but these players really do get fouled half the time and if they don’t make a act, they won’t get the call cuz refs suck
@@crazylegendstevenson4906 and what other pg in the last decade has won a chip other then Steph? That's why I put him behind Steph, only other pg that u can say was better than Russ in the last 20 years is Steph
@@kckc7140 kyrie must be dead huh only one person in this decade can go behind steph and that’s kyrie and I don’t even like kyrie but I give him that he actually won. Russ ain’t won nothing
I agree with you. I think Steve Balmer and Lawrence Franks should ask Russ to be the starting pg next season for the new arena and i do believe they should ask Ty Lue to return as head coach.
I feel bad for the clippers. They have so much depth and so much potential, but just can't get things right with their star players. Credit to Ty Lue, Russ, and the bench players who stepped up into starting roles.
Can we talk about pg and kawhi for a second for a guy who’s won a chip 2 times and an all star you telling me you can’t play a full series and load managing in the playoffs 😂
I don’t buy the knee injury for a second, it is personal reasons and clippers don’t wanna admit kawhis head isn’t right. His sister murdered an old lady in cold blood and got a life sentence
The fact that for two games now where its only russ and rest of the role players kept it so close is just a travesty because in reality if they have pg, roco, and kawhi healthy clippers would take this series.
Kawhi is a joke, he's always going to have a sore knee!! It shows you how committed he is. Kawhi's excuse all year for missing games has been to be ready for the play-offs Play through the pain!! plenty of athletes play with some sort of injury. It's time to get rid of Kawhi, great player but he's so unreliable.
Guy can’t catch a break, playing his best basketball in awhile and goes from the lakers with 2 injured stars to the clippers with 2 injured stars now 😓
Literally. He’s doing the same thing he did in 2018 against Utah. PG would disappear and Melo was washed and he would single handedly bring them back into games. But he can’t win an entire series, nobody can. He needs help
Russ will always be a great player but people look at that bad things he does on the court instead of everything he does some of the best players have done the stuff Russ does but they don't let it effect them Russ does the same thing he doesn't let the bad things he does effect he is overall game and how he plays and people need to stop saying he's bad he's not he just has had many mistakes on the court all players do
It is hard to win the game if your primary opponents is nba commissioner adam silver,referee,superteam suns! NBA already fix this series! West final : lakers lebron vs Suns kd KD and lebron most awaited matchup in final! This is not sport anymore! This is business!
The clips should resign him , to find à point guard that can score, play making and defence is hard to find . And for all the lakers fan that all ways said to me that westbrook shoot bricks remember that was all of you that westbrook didn't t want is family to even come to is match ans you think he will play good with haters 😂
@@bashh7182 .....the two in OKC can be blamed on Russ even though one of those seasons PG had a shoulder injury but the teams were good enough to get out of round one....
@@sammyslam1 The series against Houston in 2017 and jazz in 2018 weren't his fault. He had no one else show up. Every series after that he just didn't play up to par and can take blame for.

In all honesty no one can stop Westbrook but himself. 🫡 Brodie!
He just couldn't be the 3 options with you guys.
This man’s names been slandered all year. He’s still a beast with the ball is in his hands.
He was balling next to Kawhi he is a good hooper under the right support and coach
Every nba player need the ball in there hand to score
No free throw attempts this game and only 17 in 4 games while being a pure slasher……. Crazy
Yupz and yet Suns had 27 free throw attemps....
Just notice he had 0 Fts wow
because you don't have to foul him, stay vertical when he drives to the rim and he will still struggle finishing at the rim.
@@danielmiller9012 lol shoulda had Fts off and1s it’s self bro
@@danielmiller9012 Nah. It is up to the refs to blow the whistle. Even if you stay vertical he is coming into the lane. There will be obviously some form of contact because the defender is trying to impede the offensive player.
What more can he do? His going against 3 hall of famers
Exactly… Russ vs Suns, I wish Kawhi and PG could be healthy
4 Ayton will be a HOFer too
How do you take 29 shots and have no free throw attempts? Especially when half of his attempts were high contact drives at the rim.
refs aint call shit
Cuz rigged
Refs had phoenix moneyline
them refs were on payroll
That is close to impossible!
