Russell Westbrook chose OKC when he had every right to leave. -KD gave up on him in OKC. -Harden gave up on him in Houston. -Russ took the Wizards to the playoffs. -LeBron scapegoated him with the Lakers. -Kawhi and PG couldn’t stay healthy for him with the Clippers. -The Nuggets chose Jalen Pickett over him, even though 36yo Russ averaged 16/8/8 with a 22-14 record as a starter in Denver. The most important thing to understand about Russell Westbrook, that only OKC fans give him credit for, is that the only thing Russ cared about on the basketball court was WINNING. I’ll say it one last time for the IDIOTS in the back… Russell Westbrook’s OKC team record in games that he recorded a triple-double was 138-34. THAT’S OVER 80%! The triple-doubles translated to wins. Russell Westbrook will be remembered for his loyalty, his competitiveness…and yes, as a winner…even though everyone else around him gave up on him. And yes, Russell Westbrook is a Top 5 PG of All-Time. TODAY, they should start building the statue in front of the Continental Coliseum… because Russell Westbrook built basketball in OKC. They didn’t value Russ. They didn’t appreciate Russ. They didn’t respect Russ. I’ll say what Russ didn’t say in his retirement video. WHY NOT? OKC WILL LOVE RUSSELL WESTBROOK FOREVER!
