  1. Denver prolly a Top 3 team in the west and i love that Russ finally found his role, however they have way too many holes to actually go all the way. They don't shoot any threes and can't defend for shi. They need to trade for an ELITE 3 and D guy who is a borderline all defense player and can shoot like 4+ threes a game on good efficiency. Or trade for a red hot Lavine and hope to outscore their opponents which i won't recommend for the playoffs…

  2. Russ skillset and knowledge of the game has allowed him to surpass every player at something in history that has ever played in the NBA but there are a lot these critics having so much to say like as if they played at a high level in the NBA. IMO Jokic is the best player in the league right now and he and Westbrook game complements one another.. (similar to Russ and KD in OKC). Coach Malone is allowing Westbrook to play his game. Just because Steph Curry is a guard that shoot 3 pointers doesn't mean every point guard has to do the same to be able to score. Russ was demonized with the Lakers and Darvin Ham made a decision to bench him because the team and media made Russ the scapegoat for all the team issues. Everybody wants Russ to play the game the way they think he should play but has to play to his skillset. Russ plays hard and
    has the skills to do things that other guards hasn't been able to do but the haters wanna judge him because he don't shoot the three like Steph, but they overlook that he can still score the ball and Steph doesn't do the same stuff that Russ does. (Simple they're different players everybody's different.) Also he's bashed because he hasn't won a championship yet. Plenty of HOF's haven't (Barkley, Malone, Gervin, Maravich, Hill, King, Miller, Stockton, Ewing, Dominic, Iverson, CP3, Rose, Nash, Penny, TMac, Webber , Carmelo, Hill, Carter, Harden, etc…) The way the game has changed I rather have Westbrook running my team over LeBron. The winning formula is totally different from how LeBron is playing nowadays. Even now Centers have to be able to assist, dribble and shoot from the outside. I'm a LeBron fan but at this point in his career he is playing to make his stats look as if he is still a top player but actually he needs to be a role player. He wants people on the team that do all the grinding work on defense and allow him to be the focal point on offense because he knows those are the numbers that matter when it comes to looking like you are still playing at a high level. It's hard playing with LeBron. Things got out of hand as far as blame and criticism when it came to Westbrook (especially in this social media era when everyone gets to be an analyst) but let's not forget about others like Bosh, Love, Wade, Irvin (at least Wade and Kyrie was 2nd options) sacrificed their skills in their prime while playing with LeBron.

  3. The first month of the season, we were skeptical about Denver. They now have the best duo in the league.

  4. with WB, Jokic no need to run the fast break like used to which save him lot of energy. And Jokic no more to be frustrated by the overpriced Canadian PG that no agility anymore also slacking on court

  5. They are only getting warm up for the big points! I think they can beat them all! There are only 3 Teams that are on the same level!

  6. I hope they don’t bench Westbrook and bring in Murray because Murray just doesn’t have it this year. I think he got paid in. He got laid and he’s not worried. He don’t have that fire.

  7. I saw a comment recently saying that Westbrook is taking assist numbers away from Jokic. I guess they just want Jokic to rack up more triple doubles. But hey, if you're great at reading plays and making assists, you'll get those numbers regardless. Both Jokic and Westbrook have already racked up several triple doubles and near triple doubles in the same game this season.

  8. Russell Westbrook is a ruthless street basketball player…if you put him on a team and if he's happy, he's a beast!!!

  9. I get all the hype and good vibes… but he’s still Westbrook… let’s hope he doesn’t shoot them out of a playoff series.

  10. I would think they could beat Thunder in 7 games just because okc still can't completely contain jokic.
    But I still doubt that they could beat the cavs, the motion offense and twin tower setting is somehow too much for Denver to guard

  11. Player can't have triple double season without being elite level play. Nuggets now have two of them…
