If russ is going be on bench with minutes cut out i would rather go to a contender team and come off the bench. Imagine russ coming off the bench team like Boston, Celtics , play as starter for heat he would be better off their.

hes 100% right. the clippers were fiiring on all cilinders before the harden trade. with harden in the defense collapses, he takes shots from pg and kawhi and destroys the flow of the game. harden is great but hes the wrong fit for this clippers team. having roco and russ play with pg kawhi and zu was a way better lineup than any of these closing lineups

The thing about the clippers is any of the 4 stars can go off any night . Tomorrow might be Russ game to go off and lead , next might be Pg. The thing is they donβt care and the media wants them to care which would lead to problems

What significant positive impact has Harden had on a team in the past 5 yrs? Idiots getting excited, he scored 26 points. Lol, talk to you next year when he wants to leave.πππππ

He plays on a team the team doesn’t play for him. Russ chose to come off the bench he is the leader of the team. Why try to bring up a narrative to try to encourage Russ to change into something he not and complain about his role and destroy the looker room.

Itβs called sacrifice if they all tried to do there own things Stephen A would be saying you gotta sacrifice smh
@reynardbell1133
November 30, 2023 at 8:58 pm
Russ is the only have sacrificed every thing on this team. Harden didnβt make no sacrifice.

Two ball dominant player π’ obviously Russ was going to be the one coming off the bench and now letβs hope this works out with Harden in the starting line up if it doesnβt Harden will get even more hate

Well I’m going to give you a thumbs up π. Don’t know why? But Russell Westbrook was balling out? James Harden has come in and messed up the Chemistry. I don’t like that.

Russell westbrook also took a minimum contract just to stay on a team that gives him the best chances at a ring… the brother is desperate and lucky he has a role
@kckc7140
November 30, 2023 at 10:58 pm
STFU!!! 24/7/7 ain’t desperate, had he known hunny buns was on his way he would of went elsewhere
@OGBigGanktown
November 30, 2023 at 10:17 pm
Imm say this, clippers are worse since harden got there
@kckc7140
November 30, 2023 at 10:59 pm
Russ deserves better, they really diminishing his value by having him rot on the bench when hes still clearly a very good player

Westbrook don’t shoot all dat well!!! JH shows his game is for wateva you need, he needs someone to take them there. He knows he can’t lead them, but Russ n JH gonna be fine..
