There was a time when Westbrook was hitting big shots in playoff games. I remember Thunder teams in the playoffs beating other teams like the Clippers, Grizzlies and Spurs. They washed the Mavs a few times, often i felt like Westbrook was the better player then Durant
Durant was the perfect teammate for Russ and theyll never be another like him, for Russ. I would argue his aggression has become more uncontrolled since Durant left. Hes even more turnover/bad shot prone late in games now. As soon as his athleticism starts to slip he'll become even less efficient then he alraady is
I was a Westbrook fan for years but at the very most i can say hes evolved into the goat stat padded. I can still enjoy watching him and how he attacks the rim for 3 quarters but if you keep the game close with the Thunder and put pressure on them in the 4th chances are you will win. Theyre not that impressive of a team
