It’s a great day to be a Laker!!
Have fun with him😂😂
I’m happy for Russ to join the Toe Nail Clippers
Clippers games might be must watch now
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
John wall to Russ Ooof
Start of an error
Can’t wait for him to brick those mid range shots
Oh boy, this is gonna be fun
This is the clipperest of moves!! Fucking 😵 😂
do you guys think he will start?
I am ready to watch Russ hit 10 3s against us like clockwork
Well it seems like he learned nothing from this experience so I’m sure he will continue to turn over no new leaves with his new team.
I’m waiting for the “I don’t know what Lue’s problem with me is; I gave him wine.” Press conference
They are going to be fine, they have all the right pieces to fit around Westbrook…… (reverse psychology)

As long as clip fans are having fun 😂
Clippers fans think they’re getting prime Russ. It’s gonna be tough for them when they see Russ ruin their spacing and force them to play 4v5 because of his lack of shooting.
Clippers fans will finally understand
“Hell no” thank god he changed his mind😂🤣. Why are teams (including the lakers) dumb enough to actually want this dude
Lmao good lord what a bad decision
Bruh holy shit
Watch he shoots 38% from three now , and limits his turnovers to less than 2 a game
It’s about revenge
I think he’s gonna do much better there than here.
The roster construction makes a lot more sense without him taking a 1/3 of the cap.
I used to pray for times like this
Russ will never buy into his role and continue to be what he is.
Lol… this is why the Clippers will never surpass the Lakers. They’re absolutely going to start him too. In all seriousness though I hope Russ finds success with the Clippers.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He was a awful max player. However, he’s a terrific vet min player off the bench. Steal for the Clippers
Knowing our luck. He will go back to mvp westbrook for them. Especially against us
Wonder how Russ will react getting benched by Lue. Especially in the playoffs….
can’t wait to see that game thread of clippers game
The Clippers are the one team in the NBA where Westbrick might possibly work out well…but he won’t.
Lmao don’t be surprised if he actually makes it work.
The Clippers roster is a lot better equipped to accomadate Russ’ playstyle than the Lakers are. They have long switchable wing defenders and capable shooters plus 2 of their stars are used to playing off the ball
Clippers fans in hell 😂
Ngl guys as a clippers fan, this ruins any championship hopes we had
I needed to start my week off with a laugh
People in here keep pointing out that clippers have shooters and it will help.
I don’t think people understand that when Westbrook was on the court the opposing teams game plan was to put a center on him to play free safety. Or just have him left open so they can triple or double the stars lol
Westbrook being on the court allows the opposing team to pack the paint. Teams love when he has the ball because it’s easy for him to make huge mistakes.
