Actually pretty excited about this bench. When Dipo gets back & a rotation works itself out & they all get more familiar with each other they could be pretty good :ehh:

Russy/Cole
Dipo/Abrines
Robes/Dougie
Sabonis/Gibson
Adams/Kanter

Float Grant in there from time to time. Gibson probably ends up starting before to long.

I actually understand what Chuck is trying to say but he's not very articulate. If he's saying what I'm thinking he's saying, I agree. Westbrook's usage rate needs to come down.

Just like in the Utah game, the offense actually ran relatively well without him in the 2nd half with Kanter. He comes back in the 4th and shoots poorly. At some point I just don't believe it's optimal for your point guard to shoot 36 times and control the rock on nearly every possession. He might not have the best shooters around him so people will say he has to do everything but as the PG you have to give them a chance.

Russ was team leading -11 in the 2nd half tonight and went 6 for 21.

Lmao at the commitment. I'm glad you feel good about yourself brother. This one game tells us everything we need to know about his season and career. You sure showed me. I'm sure Westbrook is also depressed about the six figure check he just got for shooting 30%. How much did you make tonight friend?

Westbrook has the highest usage rate of all-time by a mile right now. Kobe, Jordan, Iverson, none of them came close to what Westbrook is doing this season. The shooting isn't what it should be, but their team is not composed of stiffs.

I've seen dude climb above LeBron in the air and grab his shyt before it has a chance to get to the rim, block 7fters with ease and recover to block dudes after getting beaten off-the-dribble. But he's never had or even attempted to apply the same lift to his jumpshot.

I was talking about him blocking Portis on a corner three

I can't find the gif or vine of him celebrating on the Warriors bench last year which had me dying too. When he laid on top of a couple guys celebrating. If anyone has that, drop that here too
