“Russ is selfish” “his teammates don’t like him” Russ brought his teammates on stage during his speech and said the award was for them. One of the greatest point guards of all time!!!
Well deserved. This man played his ass off for 82 games with more ferocity than most NBA teams play with. Considering the fact he lost a superstar in KD, and all he was left with was role players and such, Russell showed the league that not only is he a top player, no matter what anyone says, but he was the MVP this year. Give it up for Russ #Respect
I remember watching this live, almost cried lol. Without Westbrook I’d never be watching nor playing basketball, no matter what happens next in his career he’ll always be my favorite player ever. Seriously one of the biggest inspirations in my life.
For me to watch basketball it’s because of Westbrook athletism, I’m a big fan of russ no matter what people say about no matter what he’s going through I’m always with russ ,I want to thank him for what he did and for him to exist
Yeah people are hating on him for his one bad season with the lakers, like my guy he’s playing with 3 incredible scorers, Carmelo, Davis, and LeBron. When you have that much supporting cast you don’t need to score that much you just need to pass and play make because Davis already got the defending part out the way, when he played…
I will continue to support and love my favorite player in the league nobody plays at 150% like him every game, they say he’s selfish but he’s far from that, he’s given up a lot of his game to make the lakers work, just like how he did with the OKC George Melo trio, On the rockets he did the same until he found his role in the team, Wizards he did the same and played great 2nd half of those seasons, LeBron is my all time favorite like how Jordan is to everyone but we all know playing with LeBron is no easy task
people fail to realize this year he won mvp, it was hands down one of, not if the best season we ever seen from a nba player, with a dramatic ending to end the season
People try and discredit it because “well mj averaged 37 harden averaged 36 steph had 400 3s” while Westbrook carried a lottery team to the 6th seed while averaging a triple double
Brodie is one of the most disrespected MVP's of all time in the NBA. I've got nothing but love and respect for this brother. One of the hardest working players I've ever seen!!
3 years ago already but I like to watch this video a player very humble.. He very thankful to his teammates and whole team ..I love this okc team very supportive each other they playing like family and enjoying every game..
Biggest moment for me as Russ fan outside the court, he is not being like that season but that is still my boy and I will ride with him until the end You're one of the greatest to play the game Russ.
"So many haters say The stat padder wins MVP are you freaking kidding me? All 3 deserve it but when you make history they are going to give it to you. Especially a record no broken in +40 years, Beastbrook averaged a triple-double for the entire season he deserves the MVP award! If he didn't win I would prob quit watching NBA. Once again well deserved.
the thing is... a triple double really doesnt mean more than it is. he averaged 2 more boards than harden thats about it. all his fans make it look like that triple double is something EXTRA. no doubt he was one of the best players this season. no doubt... but to say he was a clear cut winner is just dumb. russ, harden, kawhi, lebron, kd, even curry... they all couldve won it. they all had a strong case for it. russ and harden had the flashiest stats and were the most similarly amazing. lebron and kawhi carried their teams to the top with also great stats on both ends. kd and curry were the best players on the best team, they were 2 of the most efficient players. so in my eyes any one of those guys couldve won it. shame curry won it over harden earlier, then it would be perfect if kawhi got the next one lol...
itsKarlDesigns Ye, but look at how much help all those guys you mentioned had. Russ has to put his trust in his best shooters who are rookies or only playing in their second year. Just look at the stats when Russ is on the court vs when he's off. Or look at when he averages a triple double vs when he doesn't. He makes more of an impact vs any other candidate. And we're just gonna act like something that hasn't been done in yearssssss is overrated? Huhhhhhhhhhhh?????
16-17 Westbrook is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever watched in the nba. When I think about him retiring soon it gets really sad. Westbrook energy is to strong 1000% effort night. There will never be another Westbrook. NBA would be different without Westbrook.
LEEEEEET'S GOOO! I KNEW IT ALL ALONG! WELL DESERVED! Russ the GOAT. Harden good but Westbrook Bestbrook! S/o to all the fans, the TNT crew, everyone I know and everyone that knows me. Thanks fam!
Had to come back at watch this after he resigned that 8 Mil 2 YR deal with the clippers 😫 bruh would even lay down his bag to let the clippers win a chip and get another piece cause of cap space. MVP ALWAYS WESTBROOK
Kanga Lord he shouldnt be. Cuz he is not a true mvp candidate. No mvp singlehandedly destroyed the whole team a year ago and the team rockets needed to get a new coach, new teammates and new system to clean up harden's mess. It was why d'antoni deserves the coty for successfully fixing Harden up as his glorified product.
He is so unlucky, runner up 2 years in a row.. the first was Steph Curry's unanimous mvp season and the second Westbrook's triple double season, any other season and Harden would've won the mvp award.
well deserved Westbrook is a straight monster can't be beat most dominant player right now straight bullying everybody hope to see you in a Laker jersey soon
“Russ is selfish” “his teammates don’t like him”

is he the only one that does that? probably sheesh disrespected his whole life

A- Rom he wouldn't have won it with KD on the team he won because he left
Now he's an mvp and all time triple double leader
@Harman Baddesha your pfp is my favorite pg
@Harman Baddesha yeah borh high energy players
And could never get out of the 1st rd after KD left lol
I'm surprised he didn't have to carry his teammates on stage
Matt Money LOL
Matt Money ROFL
Iam surprised that he didnt steal anything from his teamates on the stage like he does with rebounds

Great MVP Award Speech.
After seeing Westbrook's brother, Russell definitely got the athletic genes.
True but his brother is gonna be on the OU football team this coming season
Not funny
U don’t know that was his brother they showed
@Tyler Lopes Hey I might be wrong but don’t call me that
@Tyler Lopes 😂😂😂😂
and shout to my man nick collison the og been a loyal asf
Damn str8
My guy, through good and bad. Get healthy soon, Russ! Your speech shows why you're the man, be blessed!
I believe someday he will leave speech like this on the floor of Hall of Fame.
He’s 1st ballot no question
I so love him now. He seems so humble. Like I'm a huge Westbrook fan now.
I'm die hard Spurs fan, but if Westbrook didn't get this award this year, I would of been pissed. He well deserved it.
Nobody on the Spurs was gonna get it
Just watched this beautiful speech for the 1st time. Those are not tears coming out my eyes, my eyes are just sweating.
Westbrook is one of those players that I want to have a championship so bad man. I hope he can get one
Nuggets?
@@VeryRestarted have to see. Losing kcp hurts. If they can get a few more reliable shooters I don't see why not
New drinking game: Take a shot every time Westbrook says "guys".
I'd die lol
Of everytime he said “umm” or “sacrifice” 😂
Or um uh lol
Brodie is one of the most disrespected MVP's of all time in the NBA. I've got nothing but love and respect for this brother. One of the hardest working players I've ever seen!!
EARNED NOT GIVEN
Victor Oladeepthroat that name 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
El Desaparecido He earned the MVP in okc, but did he really earn everything else?? naw lol
Derrick rose earned it but it was given to westbrook
MoXy How the hell was Russ given the MVP? he avg a triple double which hasn't been done on 40 years and his team won lol
El Desaparecido KD rode the wave and coasted along to a guaranteed chip.....
that is not a champion..... fool
Much respect for bringing on his team mates to the stage.
I lowkey thought he gonna mention KD on his speech lol.
Facts
Kd snaked on him
NAWWW!!!!
Back here to remember the good old days… Come back RUSS!
He deserved and earned his MVP award.
3 years ago already but I like to watch this video a player very humble.. He very thankful to his teammates and whole team ..I love this okc team very supportive each other they playing like family and enjoying every game..
I still believe in you despite the hate you're gettin' Brodie. Lowkey a fan here, Russ.
Never forget this Westbrook!!!!!! One of one
Biggest moment for me as Russ fan outside the court, he is not being like that season but that is still my boy and I will ride with him until the end You're one of the greatest to play the game Russ.

I had a big ass grin on my face this entire video. Congrats to Russ man he's earned it. #Brodie
extremely humble, extremely talented, one of the greatest PG's of all time besides these last seasons of his career
Stil having good years just wasn’t used correctly on lakers, watch him this year
He is better now at Clippers I guess
