If you're turning down open looks in a game like this then what is Westbrook supposed to do? I'm not really a fan of how Westbrook plays but I won't throw him under the bus and give the rest a pass. Clearly there are better PGs out there and he is slowly gaining a well-earned rep as a bad shot jacking chemistry killer. 43 shots is too much in any planet

However Melo and PG are OG vets and last night neither one even tried to seize the initiative. They just didn't try and that's the truth. Westbrook tries too hard the others don't try at all
i get you I swear.

But as a point guard, I think he could have gotten his team mates better shot, easy two here and there to get them going.

Oladipo did the same thing yesterday for boban and collision.

As good and athletic Russell is, you shouldn’t just be dumping the ball to your team mates. Granted they are superstars and should be able to get their own shot.

But sometimes it just does not happens, and you as a point guard should make their job easy.

I am a Westbrook fan, and I have supported him so many times, I guess I just expect better from the guy and should lower my expectations of him.

Like their are better shooters in the league than you, and they do not take 40+ shots in a game.

He could have done better, and Paul George should definitely have done better. Melo on the other hand, I no know wetin I go talk.

Decale:
Warriors have KD and Klay Thompson. They also have 4 of the best defenders in the NBA.

If they can't snatch game 1 in Oracle Arena with these players, then Curry needs to break his tibia...
That warriors offense is begging for Curry to be back asap. They would have to do more defensively to have a chance against pelicans without Curry.

The reason why Utah won was Donovan and the reason why OKC lost was Donovan. wink
Lmao!! You OKC fans will always protect somebody. You also lost because of your Your Big 3.. Paul George and Melo to be precise. No one could guard Mitchell and Rubio wasn't even available.. Melo is a stupïd asś as he said he's never coming off the bench next season. Paul George just choked and Westbrook 43 shot attempts and that last 1mins where they had 5 offensive rebounds.
