Here come Russell Westbrook and Thunder West tonight at the Pay.Com Arena. The Clippers are the hottest team in the NBA being winners of their last nine games and jelling perfectly with a healthy Kawhi Leonard and a new kid named James Harden.
Throw in Paul George….. and Russell now volunteering his own new bench role and the fact of the matter is these Clippers of predicted mass dysfunction have become the tightest unit in the NBA just shy of the one-third mark in ths NBA regular season.
This should be magnificent theatre tonight in the Bible Belt of Adam Silver’s NBA since no longer are the Thunder losing by script.
I love the fact Russell took the high road for his team and is now coming off the bench. I love the way he’s somewhat mitigated chucking up those Wild Thing threes of his and is playing the team role like he did back in his UCLA days.
Russell…I’m proud of you. Please do not deviate from this mode. Kawhi is good enough when healthy to help you get your ring. You’re a role player now….which is not a crime.
Keep doing your job, buddy…and I’ll treat you like a God on my blog.
I wonder how a podcast called Thunder West Clippers would go?
Hmmn.
I’ve actually got the time to cover this game tonight front and center. Let me see what you are Thunder.
