When has Westbrook ever been able to finish at the rim in the playoffs? He is shooting 52% at the rim this series compared 53.8% for his playoff career. You not being intellectually honest if you think Russ is the solution and not the problem. The really sad part is that at 30.4% Russ is shooing ABOVE his playoff career 3pt% this series. This is will be the 3rd straight year that OKC will have had virtually the same team from a talent level stand point. This will also be the 3rd straight year that they go home in the first round.
Maybe you need to go to your 3rd take that OKC is capped at a first round exit and needs to do a complete rebuild before they have a chance to get past that. Those who would rather watch the Russ and PG show and be entertained and lose in the first round I have no problem with, although we definitely disagree on the direction the organization should go. Those how think OKC can somehow become a contender from where they are with what they have to work with are being proven to be the idiots I have said they were since the day kd ran off to worship at the alter of Draymond. That was the day OKC's run ended. There was nothing left to do at that point except enjoy the Russ show and never win a playoff series until he retired and the team bottomed out at that point or trade Russ and rebuild then. I don't enjoy a team willfully being on a treadmill. That fact that Presti is content to not only be on the treadmill, but be on it with an insane tax bill is infuriating to me and shows his complete incompetence about being able to evaluate where his team is in relation to the rest of the league.
