Clips were 5-3 in that stretch. Since getting russell westbrook on the minimum as a free agent the clippers are 10-10.

    Heā€™s on a real NBA roster now. Itā€™s not that surprising

    45% 3 PT? kawhi fed him whatever 3 pt drug he takes

  3. MWiatrak2077

    54% eFG since joining the Clippers. 8 assists to just 3.5 turnovers. Went from the worst to best contract in the league

    I hate when people do this with Russ

    Heā€™s never been a championship caliber player. All the triple doubles meant nothing. A few good games here and there donā€™t change what he is.

    Put some RESPEK on GOATBROOKS NAME!!!

    THOU SHALL RESPEK THE BROOK! OR GET THE LEFT HOOK!

    I just hope there won’t be any bad blood between him and Kawhi when Russ wins FMVP.

  7. GenericDarkFriend

    This is his year, clippers going to tear up the west yoffs this year for sure!

  8. Est-Tech79

    Whomever they play in the playoffs will love to see Russ in there making decisions in crunchtime šŸ˜‚

  9. Ferrealzzz

    Ty Lue benched him whenever he makes a few mistakes, and he never plays in the 4th. This is the way.

  10. SimBallNation

    Iā€™m just here to say how only one upvote???

  11. runevault

    If he plays like that in the playoffs and PG can come back and be decent that is legit scary (along with the obvious “can Kawhi stay healthy” question).

    Now I want Lakers Clippers in the playoffs. 6 games, OT, decided with Russ dunking over 3 guys on the last secondā€¦

    or maybe I should take it easy on sports movies for a while

  13. I donā€™t think Westbrook is playing bad offensively. He occasionally has some defensive lapses but seems more engaged.

    The real issue is independent of his play. Last few games (especially the lakers game) the opposing teams are basically overloading whatever side Westbrook isnā€™t on. So the team offense really boggles down. And since heā€™s standing on the opposite side of the ball itā€™s basically 4 on 5.

    Lue has gotta incorporate him into more actions

  14. SandyMandy17

    If you canā€™t handle him at his worstbrook you donā€™t deserve him at his Bestbrook

  15. TheSocraticGadfly

    Lemme see, 10-10 is .500 ball. What the Clipps were playing before Westbrick. No, actually, they were better. 33-28 without Westbrick. #fify

    Oh, and contra the claims this is all cuz PG’s out? Wrong. The [Clips](https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/LAC/2023_games.html) were 5-6 in the 11 games from Feb. 24-March 19, before PG13 got hurt.

  16. DM_ME_CUTE_PICS_PLZ

    Itā€™s unlikely but I hope we get Battle of LA in the playoffs somehow

  17. paraMAYBE_DO_LESS

    People donā€™t understand that Westbrook had stretches like this with the lakers.

    10 game stretch after he was benched: 18 ppg 9apg 5 rpg and shot 40% from 3 on 4 attempted per game.

    Westbrook had a better stretch the season before too.

    Itā€™s the outliers of these stretches that are horrible.

    DAS MY BOIII RUSS! Today is Russell Westbrook day too!

  19. FuckFashMods

    A lot of their losses after the trade are on lue for starting/playing Morris too much as well.
