living up to his nickname sabo russ

this is a fake account and a fake quote

Chicago and picking the stupidest possible hills to die on, name a more iconic duo

 

[Bar Razor]

Haha I was watching this live like wtf when he did that. I knew it would be the talk of the basketball night, and wasn't wrong.

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

Why was the ball in his hands...do they not have a better point guard?

 

[tremonthustler1]

“NO RUSS NO!”

The commentators were sick when he took that shot

I haven't heard an announcer be so distraught over a jumper since Clyde yelled why after a Bargnani 3.

 

[Don Homer]

expectations are prob a bit lower when you make like 40 mil less per season and aren’t a former MVP

nah fukk that

all we heard last season was "wait until we get kendrick nunn back"

 

[THE 101]

Russ is obviously getting a lot of criticism and rightfully so, but man Ham is looking a lil funny in the light

Only three games in but some red flags on him already.

 

[Egomaniacal1]

They better shut him down til its trade time because at this rate the team gonna end up Draymonding his ass. Whole team gonna put hands and feets on Sabo.

Russ is a cautionary tale

He's exactly why you work on fundamentals. because once that athleticism is gone...

What's crazy is he hasn't even lost much athleticism

 

[GunRanger]

2 for 1 was not a bad decision. Westbrook shooting is

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

It could be Damian Jones' last game too, if Bron's reaction is any indication.

As a neutral party in all of this, it would be hilarious to see Westbrook shut down or traded away, and see the Lakers continue to struggle, as their rabid fan base try and identify the next scapegoat. Because from what I've seen, Westbrook has demonstrated tremendous levels of ineptitude in the last year, but he ain't the only one holding the team back with brain dead plays. He's just the convenient lightning rod.

The fact that he still looks athletic is a testament to the super athlete that he really was. Cause he’s lost a lot…his first step is gone, he doesn’t get up like he used to and I seen John Wall smoke this nikka against the clips. Made him look like Kevon Looney. I remember when Russ used to be at least in that stratosphere of speed…but u can see he’s lost a lot of his quickness too.


At this point he’s supposed to be relying on his savy, IQ and experience like a 15 year vet should but since he’s Russell Westbrook then you see those results

 

[WhatsGoodTy]

That’s y’all mod too

They might struggle but they haven't won a game it won't be worse lol.
