Bro a casual imo Russ wasn’t the problem for the Lakers that team sucked the coaching sucked and they were old ion think Steph curry would drag them to the playoffs. He missed the playoffs with better teams.
Bruh take last yrs playoffs with a grain of salt Kawhi was hurt and Russ was forced into an off ball shooter role thats why he struggled. Hes a pg and u take the ball out of his hands. Harden is ball dominant and never plays well with pgs. He is a pg so it made no sense for him and Russ to be together. Too redundant. Clippers def played him.
Horrible replacement for KCP. This guy is literally Count Brickula from outside the arc, and Brick the Builder on jump shots inside of it. The only place he can consistently score is at the rim, and even that has fallen off, along with his athleticism. He’s also a turnover machine. Good luck with that Denver.
In my opinion, Russ isn’t the KCP replacement, he’s the replacement for Reggie Jackson and when you look at like that it’s a huge W.
I think they should maybe look at starting Julian Strawther in that 2 guard spot. He didn’t have the best rookie season only averaging 10 minutes a game, but in his last couple of seasons at Gonzaga he was a great shooter. Plus I feel like Christian Braun is better suited off the bench.
I like me some Russell and very happy to see him keep playing. And yes he will be able to help the nuggets this year. Just give him a chance, every team is different
this is a very good addition. russ is very energetic despite how old he is, but even with this signing, their 2nd unit is still very weak, especially at power forward and center. they will probably get abused in the paint.
Gotta call out the cap rq. We all know Russ is a poor shooter, but listing “The recipe for losing: Bad defense & alpha personality” is wild. First of all Russ held opponents to 30% FG in the 2023 playoffs, when actually given starting minutes. 2nd, being a leader “alpha” is con now? We’re talking about the same dude who willingly took the backseat to PG in OKC and offered to be a bench player when harden joined the clippers? Then bro says “Never been a big Russ guy- as sexy as the stats were, it never translated to winning.” So it’s his fault he wasn’t surrounded with enough pieces? That’s crazy 😅
Didn’t translate to winning okc with him Durant and a baby harden perennial contender and a finals run up 3-1 on 73-9 warriors idk wtf these uninformed narratives are about?
Unfortunately the Nuggets are officially no longer title contenders. No team with Russell Westbrook will ever amount to anything if they have expectations.
Bad efficiency when Bluds a lebron fan and lebron happens to have the most turnovers and missed shots, bad defense all lebron does is cherry pick a behind block. Lebron acting like he’s the goat fuck no and that’s why lebron loses so much Lebron also has the most playoff losses and his 3-6 isn’t a winning record so all that crap you said bout Russ should be about bron
In other words, Russ ain't gon do anything important on the Nuggets except brick shots and wasting his minutes. What a complete waste of an NBA player.
From a Denver fan perspective this is a W. Russ has at least shown in the last couple years that he can fill roles but just isn’t a star anymore. Jokic is jokic, and if Russ plays even just good enough and Jamal Murray rises to even 3 quarters the level he did in 2023, I think the boys have a chance.
Russ better then curry all time. Westbrook in 2021 lead wizards to a playoff spot and had like 3 20 20 20 games against the pacers who were ahead of them. Curry could never
I am sick and tired of hearing people say that Russ is a bad defender. He is literally 9th all time in steals, one of the best shot blockers for point guards, and is the only one who can lock up KD

Get a chip
Nuggets going back to poverty after winning a championship

Talking about heats future without even mentioning kelel ware is ignorant
I want russ to win a ring man

Jazz again?
Russ actually shot decently last season his shot section was alright and his defence was alright
Wasn’t this predicted by a bunch of people like a month ago?
Russ is still decent
that sg position is awful

Well nuggets ain't winning the chip atleast thats confirmed
Russell Westbrick
Will he get the ring 👀
This is a good signing nuggets have been missing a real Pg to run the offense off the bench and this solves it

Bro shutup you think bron is the goat wtf do you know

He was one of the best defensive guards last year because he wanted to play that role
Why not Tyus Jones
Nah but bro absolutely glazes lebron 😂
And just like that, Joker is done winning any more chips😂😂😂.

Your channel is overrated af my guy. Stop hatin
No team want to trade for mpj man. 39 million dollars in salary. Spurs don’t want to get involved cba man.
I’d rather see Russ in Phoenix he could probably get a starting lineup as a point guard again
As a clips fan…. THANK GOD
Thank you Russ for your time at the Jazz. Will undoubtedly go down as an all time Jazz player. Thank you 🙏🏼
Get off my feed lil bro
