#8 Rockets vs. #1 Thunder

I've always wondered if Russ does what he does because KD is a little laid back. Which forces Russ to take so much of the load. We say he doesn't get KD involved, but a lot of the time KD just stands there watching Russ. Is this because Russ is a ball hog or is it because he is basically forced to play that way because KD to often stands around? Not saying KD is overrated, but maybe Russ gets a bad rap that isn't warranted. Just a thought.

They're whole team stands around.
 
Very true, but shouldn't the second best player in the be able to beat the Rockets?

Houston has some really good young players. They play loose and free.

Also, I think Kevin McHale is coaching circles around Scott Brooks.

True, but KD is right below LBJ is almost everyones eyes. He needs to be more assertive. I said when Russ went down it was time for KD to show the world he's the second best player in the league. Well we are waiting.
 
I've been as critical on Russ as anyone, and I love KD, just starting to think Russ get a little too much grief for something that he has to do.

not right below.....

Lebron















Durant
 
i like Russ, better than Rose. i thought that pre Rose injury too

I personally think Russ is the 3rd best PG, behind Paul and Parker. Not much of a Rose fan. It does drive me nutts that they play the same way, and Rose gets praised while Russ gets destroyed for doing the same things better.
 
He's actually getting into a rhythm by shooting so many in a row. This is a horrible strategy.

Rose isn't playing with Kevin Durant either.
 
and its not even a must win game. just play ball!
i could maybe understand if it was 3-3 or maybe 3-2....you're up 3-1!
