Harden hate is real here, smashed the rockets with ease
Not me thinking Perk said "gender free" basketball at 4:10 😂 he loves saying agenda free basketball
but when he was asked to come off the bench for the lakers, LeBron and the coach showed no respect for him and used him as a scapegoat. Funny how nba media change their narratives.
Lol I keep hearing “gender free basketball”
They refuse to look at history. The Clippers are a trashcan – don't matter what you put in. The results are always the same.
Now if only Perkins would be brave enough to step down
The clippers were never going anywhere with Russ as the pg . He literally ran off one of the greatest scorers in Durant away. Do people not remember that. Stars want to play with James , not westbrick
Harden should be the one coming off the bench
Westbrook is the unequivocal player leader of the clippers
Throughout his career, any team that acquired Harden got BETTER, not worse.
Throughout his career he’s adjusted his game for the good of the team, whether it was coming off the bench, providing more scoring, or being a facilitator or being deferential to his fellow superstar (George and Leonard).
The Harden hate is getting out of hand.
Lol why do people want Harden on the bench, at least he provides some spacing with their horrible shootings. With Zubac in the middle, Mann or Tucker on the wing, there's not going to be any spacing
I thought Russ was selfish cuz I was blinded by my love towards KD and I was wrong. Russ is the definition of sacrifice.
James starting over russ sets up a new round of playoff meltdowns… and the clippers know it. they are desperate even to make the playoffs and thats why they are doing it
James Harden hate getting old
Can we just stop Asking Kendrick anything about anything? Guy is dumb as rocks. Last person who should be doing this job
If. Anybody need to come out the starting line up it pg sorry to say but true
Bring harden off the bench
think about how many coaches dudes like harden got bounced while PROVING the "coach" wasnt the problem…ty lue has his work cut out for him trying to acclimate a "talent" fake 5* like harden….looking forward to him being BENCHED in the 4th/playoffs NGL 4:36 perk speaking the gospel yet again.
Russ has always cared about the teams
Trash Trash Trash 🗑️ Y’all the commentators are acting like the Clippers did this Russell did… Now if the Clippers went 5 – 0 there is no discussion smh 🤦🏾
Clippers will be a disaster. Harden kills team also Westbrook does too.with kawhi and Paul always hurt this will not end well. Probably the worst team you could put together lol. On paper it looks amazing but in reality 🗑️
Now harden has to show up or they will switch this
Russ is really a great team player, say what you will you can’t deny he’s showing that he’s open to anything don’t blame him 😂
Russell Westbrook has always been a solid and reliable player, it's not his fault LAL did not know how to incorporate him. I miss him on LAL right now and would have preferred to see him come off the bench and be a mega boost like Manu was for San Antonio.
Russ is being done wrong
