i´m sure Westbrook is a great person, an awesome human, a great nba player, the best father and husband but i just can´t bring myself to like him

Dude if Westbrook don’t listen to the advice of zeke or the magic man you can’t really empathise with him

If guys like Lebron, Steph, harden, Giannis constantly get criticised isn’t it fair to hold a league mvp to the same standards as everyone else if people are gonna compare them?

Why do players act like media isn’t one of the best parts of basketball, it gives fans access to the game m!

People need to stick to basketball talk. No one (including SAS) is attacking the person. Everyone knows he’s done so much off the court. But lets talk about ON the court. A ring is really all that’s left.

Who is Stephen A to tell Westbrook where he should be in his career. Westbrooks numbers aren’t ordinary. They’re consistently great by league standards.

Also, SAS has a hard job and he knows this is part of it. That’s why he gets paid the big bucks. But hey I hope SAS is paying back to his hometown too cus he talks about ???? way too much. I make under 38k a year and still donate 10% of my money via food, Boys and Girls Club of Bloomington-Normal and spend time with staff from Big Bros Big Sis. To give them advise about my culture, background and community.

we become critical on players and championships and talk about them as if their life is worthless if they don’t win a championship. the fact of the matter is that a championship is a team accolade and the only time he has been in position to win a championship on a CHAMPIONSHIP WORTHY TEAM is when KD & Russ were last together. they choked that 3-1 against Golden State but last time i check it was KD who tucked tail that series. Russ has done the best he can in his situations. leave him alone and give him his flowers now while he’s here.

Russ career is not Stephen A’s Career. Russ puts in the work physically and mentally. Stephen A gets up drinks coffee and starts talking about people with a donut.

Russ is kinda a douche tho ???????? he’s not impacting any fans… he has ZERO fan service. When ever he goes out he has a security team that won’t even let you take his picture let alone walk up to him. ???????? seen him at the casinos, dude loves going to casinos, and his security team wouldn’t even let us take a picture of him playing. We couldn’t even get to take pics or nothing, not even take pics behind the ropes that they had sectioned away from the tables. Kinda a douche.

SAS is a clown but he is right.. Westbrook should have at least one ring by now
