Alabama Abe exactly I'm a Celtics fan who hates kobe but I respect him using that to motivate him instead of crying about it.... kobe also OWNED Utah in the playoffs
Tha Ruthless 1_ AZF facts dude, going from when he airballed those 3's in his rookie season against Utah, to sweeping them in 2010 was awesome. Definitely have to respect kobe
Tristan Gallagher - if u look at the tape pg shot 9 shots with the clock below 3 seconds that means he had to heave a lot of bad shots cause Westbrook was milking the clock
Swof yeah okc coach is trash his system Doesn’t help Melo for more insulation plays He wants Melo to be always on the tree point shooters and still Westbrook averages ten assists but it looks like he holds the ball longer....
I'm a Harden fan and I wont contest the comments. Even though its cheap, you have to understand he is a master of misdirection. He works on that part of his game like Curry does jumper. I think he looks at film and gives things a try to test the limits. He isn't that fast, jump that high but he completely understands the rules and how to manipulate his defender.
Agree and I hear you. I'm just saying once the EURO STEP came out folks just started flat out traveling. Imagine if Kobe was given a drop step and two steps every time down the court. Jordan? All these celebrations after a three ball? Why? Where did the hard fouls go, the enforcers? It's just soft now. Soft players, soft on calls, soft on a lot of things. It is what it is.
Those Mormons in Utah are vicious. When Derek Fishers daughter had eye cancer he asked the jazz to release him so he could care for her. He immediately signed with the Lakers right before the playoffs cuz they were title contenders. He also did this tactic with the mavericks. The next time Derek played in Utah the fans held up inflatable eyeballs and had signs that said "Fisher Leyed" mocking his daughters eye cancer
But here's the thang Skiiiulpp Russ shoots 43times to make 45points and you say if not of him the game would not have been close if not of him. He is the point guard he needs to make his teammates play better. They lose that’s the bottom line. Give 43shots to an elite player like KD,curry or Harden they will drop you 70pts but they are self aware they know its about winning like a team not Hero ball.
What is Stephen talking about? Didn’t OKC have one of the lowest team assist rates during the season and the playoffs? The complete opposite of how the Warriors play...
Ss Ss they were iso ball since day 1...no player movement, no setting screens..that was their problem. 4 are watching on the 3pt line, russ going iso taking insanely tough shots
Exactly. WHAT is he even talking about? Of course Stephen "all coaches suck" Jackson would blame Donovan for Westbrook taking 80 shots in two games. Wow.
1 player who has the ball, 1 screener and the rest are 3 point players.......sounds like every team lebron is on but only problem that it's russ so they ppl act like its a problem to do that with one man and not the other #sipstea

Yea PG had a bad game, but if you expected him to play well every single game then the jokes on you.He had a phenomenal game 1 as well. Russ should never under any circumstance take 19 3's. And as long as Westbrooks fans keep enabling him and telling him his behavior is acceptable, then he will never change. Sidenote:Melo might as well throw on a suit and ask FS1 if they are hiring NBA analysts.
Antonio Sanders It’s not even about Russ being the leader, factually speaking it’s the fact that this system built for Russ is what makes them lose. Why is it that GS before KD joined still won games even though Klay or Steph went cold in some games? The way the OKC offence is run doesn’t let other players to get involved and get into a rhythm. On god, switch Russ with Curry and Billy Donovan with Kerr and that OKC are going to the finals. PG and Melo missed a total of 18 shots combined, Russ missed 25 shots... from that perspective it’s clear who’s was the bigger brick fest in that game 6. It’s crazy to me how in those last moments with the 6 shot attempts in that 1 possession, no one set a single screen for the shooter. Curry is able to hit late game game winners via a screen to beat his defender. It’s a 5 on 5 game at least use the players around you instead of taking contested shots. People refuse to blame Russ because of his effort, but since when does effort excuse bad performance? Idc that he willed them back into the game, he still missed 25 shots that could have converted to an extra 50 pts (or 75). Keeping it at 2s, Melo and PG costed a potential 36 pts which is bad but Russ by himself costed them 50 pts.
no offense but your argument makes absolutely no sense. I give you that Russ did cost them 50 potential points because he missed 25, well okay, but he did score 46, which is a total of 46-50= -4 points, so that's what he actually cost them. On the other hand PG and Melo missed for 18 shots combined, costing 36 potential points, but they only scored for a combined 12, which is 12-36 = -24, even if you divide that equally on both of them (which is actually unfair to Melo) you still get -12 points that they cost. There's even a stat that shows this without all these calculations, it's called FG% and it screams: PG was just trash in this last game
Javian Johnson so never mind Russ shot 43 times right only making 18 of them that means when was 25 times he missed or took a bad shot 25 times a team mate of his could've scored or gained a good pass for a free throw attempt etc.....Russ is not a team player
Everyone loves Westbrook but tbh he is cancer to himself and his teammates. He is almost 30 and still haven’t found the tempo to where he can be a more efficient player. Billy is also a terrible coach and Melo needs to accept the fact that he has declined and come off the bench like Manu or D Wade did this season. Melo could easily get 15+ off the bench.
Carmelo is to blame. You can say Russell doesnt improve players around him, you can say hes a stat padder. But Melo been playing bad his whole career. When has Melo made his team mates better? When Lin was hot, he came in killed Lin. He had Porzingis and couldnt work with him. This whole year Melo was garbage.
fvpbz54 Westbrook! Westbrook's basketball IQ is average in a good game, shooting mechanics are suspect, teammates can't play off of him, his game is exciting yet inconsistent, and he stops the ball movement 😷 he makes your offense one dimensional and limit your options because players can't play off of him at all leaving you to rely only on him💯 His game is literally built for the 00s, 90s, or 80s not 10s 👀 If your star player can't play in a Spurs, Rockets, Jazz, Raptors, Pacers, or Warriors type of offense/defense with stars and skill players in this modern day league you're not gonna win a lot of games or championships 😩 Paul was underwhelming and Melo was a black hole, not forgeting neither of em can't play team defense along with Westbrook 😶 Thunder should trade Westbrook honestly lol I love Westbrook, but you're not gonna win much with the way he plays LMFAO Plus he's a super athletic guard that relies on talent and freak athleticism, they sell tickets, but their game don't age well in their latter years plus he's 29 going on 30 😌 Just get the draft picks for him while you can and start the rebuilding process asap 🙏 Trust me, I'm a Westbrook fan, but let's be real...yeah and by the way Melo gonna stay because no team gonna pick him up haha honestly at this point Westbrook isn't even a top 5 guard or player! He's roughly a top 10 guard or player at that! Top 15 definitely, but anything higher than that you're pushing it! I can name 4-14 players that I'll choose over Westbrook 😑 They should pull a Jimmy Johnson and Herchel Walker trade him 😌
I love how Stephen Jackson laughing at Shannon's antics. "Somebody gave 'em that name . . . The King . . . The chosen one . . . and he never let it go!"
skip is using the exact same argument FOR Russ that he used AGAINST LeBron James in the 2013 finals, Game 6. He's giving Russ credit for willing the Thunder back into the game, even though they ended up losing, but he gives LeBron no credit for willing the Heat back into the game against the Spurs (and eventually winning the game, unlike Russ) because LeBron ended regulation on a low note and Ray Allen was the one to hit the final shot. If Paul George had hit the big shot at the end, Skip would've given Russell credit. Ray Allen hits the shot for LeBron though? No credit to LeBron for giving the Heat a chance to win.
Did stephen jackson just say westbrook would have beaten the pacers if he was on the cavs team instead of Bron? 😂😂😂😂😂 thats the most idiotic thing ive heard
I went to the OKC/Jazz series to see him play in person here in Utah and Melo is not even close to be done. Now I can easily say that putting him at the 4 was the worst decision ever made by Billy Donovan. He's always going against bigger guys on both ends of the floor and there was not even a system in place to actually utilize him the right way. His production took a huge hit because the adjustments he had to make was way too much especially knowing that he was labeled as the third option from the very beginning. The coach relied on Westbrook and PG for their ability to run around with the ball in their hands to create which is fine, but I think he should've then transitioned PG at the 2, Melo at the 3 and either Grant or Patterson (both underrated) at the 4. Melo would've been his usual self consistent touches and rhythm. Yes his numbers would've been down still, but he would've been more efficient. Just like they let Westbrook be Westbrook, they need to let Melo be Melo. The only thing I can say that he needs to change, his to adjust to be more of playmaker first because the game has changed.
its a double edged sword when hes keeping them in a game alone because it gives him the confidence to chuck up shots like that airballed 30 footer off the inbounds down the stretch lol. hes just as good at shooting the thunder out of games as he is keeping them in them.
gabe newland Steven Adams shot 9/11. Instead of looking to drive and dump it to him like a point guard would do trying to get it to whoever has a hot hand, Westbrook jacked up long 3s and he's not a good enough 3 point shooter to justify taking that many 3s

Man I love Undisputed, even when they disagree & Skip is trolling & saying outlandish things, it still seems like they're enjoying themselves & having fun.
They shouldve really stuck to iso with their lineup, PG is deadly starting at the key, melo at the block, and westbrook can take the ball up then pass/ drive. Those three iso at their respective spots couldve been real special

Look at 2015-16 vs the warriors kd was also on that team you have two superstars who both choked 3 games in a row stop only blaming Westbrook and its not like he left snd went to just another team he went to the team that just made the finals back to back years who had just won 73 games who had just BEAT THEM Thats why hes a snake he didn’t go to a 40 win team he went to a team that had just beat them
Game 5 kd shoots 12-31 38 percent scores 40 somehow then westbrook scored 31 on 11-21 shooting they still lost by 10 next game kd 10-31 32 percent westbrook 10-27 37 percent both had 28 lost by 7 then game 7 which was like the only game kd shot over 50% i think.but he shot 10-19 27 points westbrook 7-21 19 points so clearly both of them were choking you cNt just blame Westbrook hes always been a bad shooter Westbrook is a career 43 percent fg shooter kd is 50% for his career but that series kd attemped 24 fgs per game and shot a 42 percent Westbrook shot 22 fgs per game and shot 39% from the field
The Thunder need to workout a trade w/ the Spurts for Westbrook and Kawi. Kawi, obviously is not happy w/ his situation and Westbrook, if he doesn't get with a quality coach he'll just play until he burns out and leave w/ only his MVP...
I think it could be a challenge and one I would love to see. I just hate to think Russ is going to play the rest of his career at 100 MPH and we all know he's not going anywhere w/ OKC. It would also be a great story for the NBA and if a coach like POP could transform Russ into a better player.
This would never happen. Pops has talked about how he goes about getting players. The players that they take are ones who they believe are willing to try and fit into the system and the mindset. Westbrick does not fit the mold and wont every try to change.
Jackson speaking 100 % facts. i been saying Billy Donovan couldntstand up and talk to Westbrook , the only one that could adjust his game was Paul George who may leave. I'm a NYK fan, so i wish Melo the best

Cory Fessenden righttttt because coaches always have control over their players lol. Only coach in the league with control over his team is Pop who is arguably the goat. Nobody can control Westbrook. You rather have a guy averaging a triple double or a guy brining in championships. Casual NBA fans like you don’t care about rings though right?
flame1113 I’m not saying the coaches are off the hook but look at it from a logical standpoint. Who is going to always be the first to blame in these situations? People claim the coach doesn’t do enough but why don’t we point fingers at the star of the team either?
Jordan was poisoned in Utah. I'm pretty sure the NBA kept it on a hush hush. Media reported it as flu-like symptoms... but if you remember that game... it looked more like food-poisoning. Michael Jordan being the G.O.A.T that he is..... put it on Bryon Russell and The Utah Jazz in Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals.... while suffering from food poisoning!!!!
Russ took 43 shots because Billy Donovan does stop it. He is by far the weakest coach out there nowadays and i am still confused as to why he’s still coaching a NBA team. Melo was right to just put it out there that there’s no offensive scheme. Russ shoots multiple times and places hero ball continuously because he’s adapted to playing like that and the coach isn’t doing anything to fix it. First step into getting a better Thunder team is to fire Billy Donovan.

There's even a stat that shows this without all these calculations, it's called FG% and it screams: PG was just trash in this last game
"James Harden gets foul calls from walking through the metal detector..."😂
A lot of it has to do with Melo's selfishness and ego to refuse to come off the bench. Could've provided an extra boost in the middle of the game
Javian Johnson lol this not why they lost
The reason why Ginobili is a Legend
Javian Johnson so never mind Russ shot 43 times right only making 18 of them that means when was 25 times he missed or took a bad shot 25 times a team mate of his could've scored or gained a good pass for a free throw attempt etc.....Russ is not a team player
Sonny Ankau Perfect
because WB 43 shots didnt matter
Shannon sharpe is keeping it 100.. Love his feedback
Everyone loves Westbrook but tbh he is cancer to himself and his teammates. He is almost 30 and still haven’t found the tempo to where he can be a more efficient player. Billy is also a terrible coach and Melo needs to accept the fact that he has declined and come off the bench like Manu or D Wade did this season. Melo could easily get 15+ off the bench.
Kia Amire everyone loves him? he is one of the most hated players in the league.
Kia Amire I agree and I think on top of changing his game he needs to fire his stylist.
That would be nice but Melo would retire before he comes off the bench
You can only young once but immature forever
Kia Amire Manu always came off the bench.Wtf are you saying?
Carmelo is to blame. You can say Russell doesnt improve players around him, you can say hes a stat padder. But Melo been playing bad his whole career. When has Melo made his team mates better? When Lin was hot, he came in killed Lin. He had Porzingis and couldnt work with him. This whole year Melo was garbage.
fvpbz54 kinda makes me wonder were we right to dismiss Phil Jackson because he was trying to trade Melo...
fvpbz54 Westbrook! Westbrook's basketball IQ is average in a good game, shooting mechanics are suspect, teammates can't play off of him, his game is exciting yet inconsistent, and he stops the ball movement 😷 he makes your offense one dimensional and limit your options because players can't play off of him at all leaving you to rely only on him💯 His game is literally built for the 00s, 90s, or 80s not 10s 👀 If your star player can't play in a Spurs, Rockets, Jazz, Raptors, Pacers, or Warriors type of offense/defense with stars and skill players in this modern day league you're not gonna win a lot of games or championships 😩 Paul was underwhelming and Melo was a black hole, not forgeting neither of em can't play team defense along with Westbrook 😶 Thunder should trade Westbrook honestly lol I love Westbrook, but you're not gonna win much with the way he plays LMFAO Plus he's a super athletic guard that relies on talent and freak athleticism, they sell tickets, but their game don't age well in their latter years plus he's 29 going on 30 😌 Just get the draft picks for him while you can and start the rebuilding process asap 🙏 Trust me, I'm a Westbrook fan, but let's be real...yeah and by the way Melo gonna stay because no team gonna pick him up haha honestly at this point Westbrook isn't even a top 5 guard or player! He's roughly a top 10 guard or player at that! Top 15 definitely, but anything higher than that you're pushing it! I can name 4-14 players that I'll choose over Westbrook 😑 They should pull a Jimmy Johnson and Herchel Walker trade him 😌
Jr smith
Steve Novak
Shall I proceed
J Glenn
Lol... this clown is really gonna say Melo made JR and Novak good? Lol
fvpbz54 name a year they were better
I love how Stephen Jackson laughing at Shannon's antics. "Somebody gave 'em that name . . . The King . . . The chosen one . . . and he never let it go!"
His mother gave him the name King..Lebron means King in the African Language..he was King before the NBA
Did Stephen Jackson say OKC lost because they arent playing enough iso ball? Huh?
Kendall G 😂😂😂 iso plays is what he shoulda said
But it's true considering the pieces they have. They did a lot of 3 hoisting.
Isolation is a play or style of play. 3 pointers are a shot. You can iso AND shoot 3s you know. In fact thats what they were doing.
He was a high it’s ok lol
I think he meant they needed to set pick and rolls and set up for open shots. But they didn’t at alllll
Kobe named himself the black mamba nobody said anything
walter alston well playoff p might just be a garbage nickname 😂
Droopy Ballz 😂😂😂😂
He did but no one called him that until he earned it lol
That's Kobe tho Lmaoo and he backed it up, playoff P just embarrassed himself
It’s Kobe can’t say anything
Kevin Durant is definitely watching this #facts 😂😂😂
skip is using the exact same argument FOR Russ that he used AGAINST LeBron James in the 2013 finals, Game 6. He's giving Russ credit for willing the Thunder back into the game, even though they ended up losing, but he gives LeBron no credit for willing the Heat back into the game against the Spurs (and eventually winning the game, unlike Russ) because LeBron ended regulation on a low note and Ray Allen was the one to hit the final shot. If Paul George had hit the big shot at the end, Skip would've given Russell credit. Ray Allen hits the shot for LeBron though? No credit to LeBron for giving the Heat a chance to win.
Max S people need to stop comparing the best player in the world (LeBron) to others... LeBron can play anywhere..
Shoutout Stephen For the PV shout out!!!!
"James Harden gets a call for walkin thru a metal detector" LMFAO Shannon is A+++
Skip was heated when he was sighing and gesturing while Shannon was talking and he said "Tell Me When Its My Turn" 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Did stephen jackson just say westbrook would have beaten the pacers if he was on the cavs team instead of Bron? 😂😂😂😂😂 thats the most idiotic thing ive heard
Luis Munoz well Jackson left the champion spurs to play with the hawks so yea he's not very smart
Luis Munoz dude has to be joking. That’s why he was smirking.
So much shots fired in this episode ! Best one yet 😂🔥
All I wanna know is why does EVERY topic somehow involve lebron?
Charles Khoilan Ikr, it's starting to become an obsession for these guys.
Because shannon. Lol
Timothy Francis starting????
Facts
SHANON CAN CIRCLR ANYTHING BACK TO LEBRON!!!
James Harden gets fouls walking through the metal detector 😂😂😂😂
Stephen Jackson was a player I didn't care for too much but I'm loving his takes post career. New found respect
Shoutout to PV A&M
"George paul" 😂😂😂😂😂
Westbrook a BEAST !!!
"the objective is not just to go to war it's to win the war" well said uncle Shannon
I went to the OKC/Jazz series to see him play in person here in Utah and Melo is not even close to be done. Now I can easily say that putting him at the 4 was the worst decision ever made by Billy Donovan. He's always going against bigger guys on both ends of the floor and there was not even a system in place to actually utilize him the right way. His production took a huge hit because the adjustments he had to make was way too much especially knowing that he was labeled as the third option from the very beginning. The coach relied on Westbrook and PG for their ability to run around with the ball in their hands to create which is fine, but I think he should've then transitioned PG at the 2, Melo at the 3 and either Grant or Patterson (both underrated) at the 4. Melo would've been his usual self consistent touches and rhythm. Yes his numbers would've been down still, but he would've been more efficient. Just like they let Westbrook be Westbrook, they need to let Melo be Melo. The only thing I can say that he needs to change, his to adjust to be more of playmaker first because the game has changed.
You know some basketball bro.
If Russell didn’t shoot 40+ times the thunder don’t even make the game close. FOH with all that Westbrook hate.
its a double edged sword when hes keeping them in a game alone because it gives him the confidence to chuck up shots like that airballed 30 footer off the inbounds down the stretch lol. hes just as good at shooting the thunder out of games as he is keeping them in them.
mike murphy then why doesnt the coach make him stop?
flame1113 because okc is westbrooks team this is a superstars league now
flame1113 you think those were good shots he was airballing down the stretch?
gabe newland Steven Adams shot 9/11. Instead of looking to drive and dump it to him like a point guard would do trying to get it to whoever has a hot hand, Westbrook jacked up long 3s and he's not a good enough 3 point shooter to justify taking that many 3s
Gotta be the ref who lost his whistle twice on PG 3 points attempts.
Tyeksa! right definitely had nothing to do with the thunder having some of the worst posessions of all time down the stretch.
Would've loved to hear Chris Broussard's take on the playoffs this weekend!
Shannon spitting some facts

Damn dat boy said Prairie View A&M! 😂😂 Blew trees my first time ever at PV when i was in highschool
I'm pretty sure the jazz being a good team is to blame
Always good when Stak is on, I really hope he gets that coaching job in the future. He breathes the game
MOST HATED PLAYERS
BRON✔
WESTBROOK✔
KD✔
JAY-ABC Brown I think Harden is after lebron
JAY-ABC Brown what about curry? Everyone always hate on him
JAY-ABC Brown you forgot Zaza
KD is more Hated than Westbrook
KING BENJAMIN by you calling him overrated proves his point, you are hating on him which is being hated! Smh
Man I love Undisputed, even when they disagree & Skip is trolling & saying outlandish things, it still seems like they're enjoying themselves & having fun.
OKC still would've lost even with lebron
7:15-9:10 Skips voice when he goes into that high pitch debate voice is probably my all time favorite 😂😂
When they gonna drop the video about the cavs I wanna see what skip is gonna say to put LeBron down
Who was to blame well its clear its Utah. Utah had a game plan and worked it to perfection.
I wouldn’t even put Melo & Westbrook on the same team in 2k. What makes the GM think it’s okay to do that? Lol
They shouldve really stuck to iso with their lineup, PG is deadly starting at the key, melo at the block, and westbrook can take the ball up then pass/ drive. Those three iso at their respective spots couldve been real special
Funny shannon switched up his stance about russ now that he with bron lol
Switched up? Are you high
First time watching this show and agree with Skipp 🤷🏾♂️
I blame Donald Sterling 😭
Shannon is 100% correct about Russell.
Shannon Sharpe is the only person telling the truth here.
Cap
So russel with 46 points made them lose the game
Coaching was definitely the difference. Which also made the difference in 2016 against the warriors.
12:57 Shannon not trying to laugh hahahaha
Shannon you are absolutely right!!!
So KD a snake for leaving a team that couldnt win because of russ we clearly see now ......he dont know how to win

He can't win without the best team ever because he couldn't play, while KD did
Look at 2015-16 vs the warriors kd was also on that team you have two superstars who both choked 3 games in a row stop only blaming Westbrook and its not like he left snd went to just another team he went to the team that just made the finals back to back years who had just won 73 games who had just BEAT THEM Thats why hes a snake he didn’t go to a 40 win team he went to a team that had just beat them
Game 5 kd shoots 12-31 38 percent scores 40 somehow then westbrook scored 31 on 11-21 shooting they still lost by 10 next game kd 10-31 32 percent westbrook 10-27 37 percent both had 28 lost by 7 then game 7 which was like the only game kd shot over 50% i think.but he shot 10-19 27 points westbrook 7-21 19 points so clearly both of them were choking you cNt just blame Westbrook hes always been a bad shooter Westbrook is a career 43 percent fg shooter kd is 50% for his career but that series kd attemped 24 fgs per game and shot a 42 percent Westbrook shot 22 fgs per game and shot 39% from the field
If there was one thing KD is right you can never win with russ? Russ thinks he's a leader when he's not oh, he's just a co-captain
Shannon's reaction at 14:20 got me weak af . Thats that Kermit "ain't none of my business" meme irl 😂😂😂😂
Melon thinking bout LaLa too much
“James harden gets calls walking through the metal detector” LOL
Lmao Payoff... P .. I'm weak
nobody is giving credit to Utah, they came up from way down, finished one of the top 4 of 2nd half of season
They blamed Russ because his teammates couldn’t make shots 😂😂😂 how blame for him for pg playing like sht
This show is Brilliant!!!!! The Absolute Best!!!!!
Where the Bron video at man
That Dead Guy Your wallpaper and username make me feel sad 😞
Deonna Williams I’m sorry I’m hurting too 💔
Skip had me dying talking about "Playoff P"...straight up laughed at that man
The Thunder need to workout a trade w/ the Spurts for Westbrook and Kawi. Kawi, obviously is not happy w/ his situation and Westbrook, if he doesn't get with a quality coach he'll just play until he burns out and leave w/ only his MVP...
I think it could be a challenge and one I would love to see. I just hate to think Russ is going to play the rest of his career at 100 MPH and we all know he's not going anywhere w/ OKC. It would also be a great story for the NBA and if a coach like POP could transform Russ into a better player.
This would never happen. Pops has talked about how he goes about getting players. The players that they take are ones who they believe are willing to try and fit into the system and the mindset. Westbrick does not fit the mold and wont every try to change.
tyrone bates Russ isn't a system player lol Pop isn't going to take a player who shoots 30 to 40 times and has the attitude like Russ
Exactly! I know I'm wishful thinking here but I just think it could be an Epic story if a player like Russ could turn it around.
Raymond Liang that’s why pop wanted dejounte Murray to learn from playing against russ lool
Jackson speaking 100 % facts. i been saying Billy Donovan couldntstand up and talk to Westbrook , the only one that could adjust his game was Paul George who may leave.
I'm a NYK fan, so i wish Melo the best
Westbrook will never win a championship. I would not want to be the coach for OKC because the coach is always going to be the scapegoat SMH.
David Glasco theyve had 2 coaches under WB... when do they blame coach? Russ won MVP, what has billy or brooks done?..
David Glasco it is coaching, casual NBA fans like you dont realize how important coaching is. If you cant control your guys it is coaching.
David Glasco Westbrook's basketball IQ is average in a good game, shooting mechanics are suspect, teammates can't play off of him, his game is exciting yet inconsistent, and he stops the ball movement 😷 he makes your offense one dimensional and limit your options because players can't play off of him at all leaving you to rely only on him💯 His game is literally built for the 00s, 90s, or 80s not 10s 👀 If your star player can't play in a Spurs, Rockets, Jazz, Raptors, Pacers, or Warriors type of offense/defense with stars and skill players in this modern day league you're not gonna win a lot of games or championships 😩 Paul was underwhelming and Melo was a black hole, not forgeting neither of em can't play team defense along with Westbrook 😶 Thunder should trade Westbrook honestly lol I love Westbrook, but you're not gonna win much with the way he plays LMFAO Plus he's a super athletic guard that relies on talent and freak athleticism, they sell tickets, but their game don't age well in their latter years plus he's 29 going on 30 😌 Just get the draft picks for him while you can and start the rebuilding process asap 🙏 Trust me, I'm a Westbrook fan, but let's be real...yeah and by the way Melo gonna stay because no team gonna pick him up haha honestly at this point Westbrook isn't even a top 5 guard or player!

Cory Fessenden righttttt because coaches always have control over their players lol. Only coach in the league with control over his team is Pop who is arguably the goat. Nobody can control Westbrook. You rather have a guy averaging a triple double or a guy brining in championships. Casual NBA fans like you don’t care about rings though right?
flame1113 I’m not saying the coaches are off the hook but look at it from a logical standpoint. Who is going to always be the first to blame in these situations? People claim the coach doesn’t do enough but why don’t we point fingers at the star of the team either?
"James Harden gets foul calls when Walking🚶 Through the Medal Detector"😂😂
Jordan was poisoned in Utah. I'm pretty sure the NBA kept it on a hush hush. Media reported it as flu-like symptoms... but if you remember that game... it looked more like food-poisoning.
Michael Jordan being the G.O.A.T that he is..... put it on Bryon Russell and The Utah Jazz in Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals....
while suffering from food poisoning!!!!
ArchAngelEmmanuel yeah it was alcohol poisoning, dude he was hungover😂😂 But he is the GOAT so he pushed through.
ArchAngelEmmanuel 💯💯💯
ill take russ on my team anyday
haha
Wolves bandwagon fan since 1998 True! It was 1997 tho
Imagine this Okc squad w/Mark Jackson...
Why is Shannon comparing LeBron with russ, we all know LeBron is better
So you can't win shooting 48 times
You can't win with melo being kyle korver
You can't win with 5 point Paul
Make up your mind Shannon
Who's the worst coach in the playoff? Billy or Tyronn
Jimmy Vo One at least has a ring...
This is a debate in itself
LeBron is the worst coach
Say what you want about Skieup but the mans a legend in what he does, and he makes a great piece for this show.
Russ took 43 shots because Billy Donovan does stop it. He is by far the weakest coach out there nowadays and i am still confused as to why he’s still coaching a NBA team. Melo was right to just put it out there that there’s no offensive scheme. Russ shoots multiple times and places hero ball continuously because he’s adapted to playing like that and the coach isn’t doing anything to fix it. First step into getting a better Thunder team is to fire Billy Donovan.
