Jeff Teague: Russell Westbrook is CARRYING Nuggets without Nikola Jokic | 520 in the Morning
Jeff Teague, DJ Wells, and B Hen react to Russell Westbrook and the Denver Nuggets’ win over James Harden and the Los Angeles Clippers. With Nikola Jokic sidelined with an illness, Russ has carried this Nuggets team, and has had a career resurgence at 36-years-old. Jeff explains how Russ’s ability to run the point has allowed Jamal Murray to thrive as the shooting guard, and has opened up the floor for the rest of the guys.

Russel Westbrook 1st ballot hall of famer. Top 5 pg for a reason
Happy for Russ
Clippers failed Russ just as bad as the Lakers brining in harden after he signed for the vet minimum. Now look. Harden stole the 30 million Russ deserves and harden still sucks! Clips would be better with Russ running pg. it’s a disgrace to the league that 1 guy who tries his hardest still at 36 is paid dog shit because of Lebron.
I love yall talk WWE…Lowkey elite convos
2025 Russ YesBrook Certified Champ
Glad Russ is on the nuggets. Nuggets don’t get the respect they deserve cause it’s a chiller market but that’s perfect for Russ rn to just focus on hooping and avoid all the LA drama he’s been getting the last few years.
This why Jokic can’t be MVP
This why Jokic can’t be MVP
Proves Russ can still do this he may not be okc Russ but he’ll still give you a solid 15-20
Lebron tried to blame russ
Westbrook never lost it the lakers just treated him like shit and the media piled onto it
Mr triple double
Westbrook the best example of how most fans dont even watch the games they just look at the stat sheet. His whole stint during the Lakers everybody was callin him Westbrick & dat, now he on a team where he fit all a sudden everybody love him again
Carrying? WB is definitely solid but its been a team effort
Best nba duos this year go:
Jalen Brunson/Kat
Jalen Williams/SGA
Giannis/Dame
Tatum/Brown
Luka/Kryrie
While Porter and Murray make 40 mil a yr doing shit, trade them dont waste Jokics prime
It’s crazy cause I was wondering why there a WWE belt up there 😂 but we talk ball rn keep the fake wrestling talks at home
Y'all are some Nuggets haters, wack!… Good way to piss people off
Hasn’t Kawhi been with his family enough? GTFOH.
We shine out here in Denver❤ Heck of a City , CO an amazing peaceful lit State❤
There are billions of people in the world and there have only been approximately 5000 people that have played in the NBA. How can these people comment on here and call a person trash that defied odds and became one of the people that made it to the NBA? Not only did Westbrook make it but he's in the history books as the best at doing things over every other player that made it to the NBA so how can he be trash?. 💯 💯 .
I love & he's definitely turned, just one thing I m sure why he's missing sure thing dunks and layups
Where all the “Westbrick” comments now huh??? Lets not pretend like some of yall didn’t doubt a mf! My guy, so happy to see Russell shine once again!!!!
Rko, Sweet Chin Music, Frog Splash
Never forget it was the Diamond Cutter 1st before the RKO
kawhi always got an excuse to not play… pretty sure he ain't the only one on the LOS ANGELES clippers that has family to look after in LA…
Stonecold stunner and RKO are basically the same move
1. DDT
2. 3-D
3. Razor's Edge
Brodie 🐐💯
🔥🔥🔥
Westbrook is the most talented PG of all time. Go argue with a wall.
been waiting for people to give Russ his flowers, if he gets a ring with these guys i'll believe in the NBA again
Playing with the lebron retirement lakers dropped his stock. Now hes playing with an actual team that lets russell be russell.
I have a dumb question. I mean, I know the answer, but I have to ask. They don't really do the pod in 5:20 AM, right? Why is it called that?
If you watch wrestling you are lame af
kawhi is like that celebrity that shows up once a season in a tv sitcom, its funny but i feel bad for that team and all the players seeing the highest paid player literally only shows up occasionally its not like he attends every game to support the team
I mean, Harden doesn't need to be that Harden mvp every night, but when the team isn't clicking, it's alright to him to be a little more selfish, carry the offense more in these times
The NBA isn't sports, it's ENTERTAINMENT.
Its official Nuggets don’t need Jokic. Joker to the Lakers…yes please.
Hogan got Booed cuz He's a racist Phuque. Jus' sayin' 🤷
RKO, super kick and the stone cold stunner
Clippers will never be good. I applaud their fans for sticking with them and giving the Lakers the finger in an obvious Lakers town but they are the cubs.
In US you are one moment at the top, or next one at the bottom…Russel case…there is no middle, exusess…they spit on you or hold you at the shoulders…
