He never improved his game. That’s the main problem.

Lebron is in his way. Lebron won’t let him do what he does best and that’s run the offense. Lebron is un coachable, plays no D and cant/won’t play off the ball. It’s never lebrons fault when they lose smh

He hit a 3 forcing OT and they won.It’s just people like Stephan A Smith that’s needs to shut up and let the nba players play ball

I can’t stand to hear this anymore on ESPN. “Westbrook never cheats the game, the brother never cheats with effort.” The biggest lies I’ve ever heard. It’s easy to say that when you watch a few highlights of him grabbing a rebounding and then going coast to coast. Watch the whole game because Patrick Bev was right about this guy being the real magician fooling everyone.

They need to stop saying he doesn’t cheat us with effort, he does, I like Russell Westbrook but let’s not pretend like he plays defense
