Russell Westbrook ties Oscar Robertson for triple-doubles in single NBA season | UNDISPUTED

skip, how surprised are you that Russ did this? I can't say I'm surprised because I predicted right after Kevin Durant left that Russell Westbrook would average a

triple

-double and win the MVP, but now I've seen it develop. night after night game after game and I think I had seen almost all of them mm-hmm. I'm surprised because I didn't realize how hard it was going to be to do it night after night because no one I've seen in all my years of NBA coverage has played more possession after possession after possession than this guy and if You walk away from this, the odds were that when Kevin Durant left, he should have left Oklahoma City basically for dead because that happens. when LeBron goes to South Beach and takes his talent to South Beach, it leaves you in such a situation that you collapse and fall apart as a franchise for a while, even with Kyrie, they had a hard time, that shows that LeBron is giving it to you. one, I'm giving you a shot, honestly, we don't know well.

I'm not going to belabor your point, but the point is that Russell Westbrook has wanted this team until 6e, you said, you know, I said four seeds. You said well, if they get to five, you'll consider MVP's drop, but there's still only two and a half behind the Clippers, three and a half behind the Jazz, but Oklahoma City is thirty-two and nine when he makes

triple

doubles

, that's simply phenomenal. For me, and the last three times they played that for seeding, the Jazz beat the Utah Jazz and in two of those games, the last two Russells basically won on tee shots, yeah, that's pretty good, mm-hm, like that which now Oklahoma City has won.

San Antonio, Cleveland and Houston swept two Celtics, that's pretty good, beating the Clippers twice, beating Memphis twice, that's pretty good, and beating the Wizards, Raptors and Atlanta Hawks in the East, it was a great year. I know your records aren't exactly what I thought. It would be but but I was really putting a lot on Russell's shoulders because the team is not as good as I thought it would be even with the deadline issues in Taj Gibson or Doug McDermott, so in the end take a step back from this Russell Westbrook is averaging a race. -high 34 percent from the three-point line, which is not his strong suit, he can be as bad as LeBron from the three-point line and even here late as they made his effort to try to hold on to it come up in the seeded.

I've been on a late streak because he's 42% in his last four games from the three-point line. He's leading this league in scoring. He is third in assists and this is the best for me. He is tenth in this league in rebounds. He has an average of ten. point seven rebounds at six feet three inches tall and I'm not even sure he's that tall but he's the best guard rebounder I know and this may be a little before your time although it's a Denver connection remember Fat Weaver, I'm doing it right. career big rebounder, 6-3, shooting guard, big rebounder, it was 9.3 rebounds, so Russ is in the top ten in the NBA and in rebounds, and if you look at all the players ahead of him in rebounds great, they are all Whiteside, Drummond and DeAndre bits.

Jordan Dwight Howard and Gobert Karl-Anthony Towns Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins ​​Now I'm eight deep. Number nine is Kevin Love, who is 6 feet 10 inches tall. He's not a center, but he's a great. If the rebounder had written a really good rebound under the rim read earlier and number 10 on that list is mr. triple-double Russell Westbrook I I Yeah I'm still amazed at the magnitude of what he's accomplished especially in the rebounding category well that's where it surprises me because I thought the rebounding aspect would trip him up because he's never averaged more of eight rebounds in a CL, so increase that by two and a half, three rebounds a game overnight and overnight, so I thought I would make it, but let's jump in, let's be realistic, let's be all the way 100 skills, you know a lot. of his teammates move away to grab the rebound.

How many times have we seen a lineup of point guards at the free throw line when all these big guys are trying to get a free throw? They get a free throw. You don't see Chris Paul. You don't see Kyrie, you don't see Steph Curry up there, his greats are up there. LeBron is saying he wait, look, jump, look at this, oh wait, I want your video, oh, oh, let's see this for real. I mean, joy, come on, joy. come meet the joy guys there for me, well maybe they're just moving because they know he's going to come in and crash the board hard.

I mean, no one's really trying to get injured, you know, look, look, here's the point: he's not one of the best. rebounders on the team, yeah, don't you want me to go after loose balls? Because no one goes after him harder than Russell Westbrook. I think I'd like to strategically put him at the free throw line because I'm going to rely on him to get rebounds. That Ennis Kanter sometimes doesn't understand. How about this gift? Why the hell did you give Steven Adams $100 million if he can't lead the team in rebounding? Don't know. I think he's had a bad year.

I thought that if. about to break through to be a star in the playoffs last year he averaged a triple-double absolutely but if he's averaging a triple-double why are they paying Kevin Love 100 million why did they give Trista TT 15 million one year if Ron has to leave the team on rebounds, that's his job hmm, you got big, so why did you get dressed with a bonus? Why did you recruit Adam? Why did you coach for Taj Gibson if they can't lead the team in rebounding? Come on, skill. You already have someone who can lead the team in rebounding.

His name is Russell Westbrook and what he just killed forces you to succeed in almost the fifth. The Clippers have righted the ship or they would have been the fifth seed and I told you so. they're pushing four and that gave you three wins over the four seeds, that's pretty well dressed, it gave you as dangerous a playoff team as you can find in the West, aside from the gold, instead, what I noticed about the Closeness is that it only matters in horseshoes, grenade throwing, and slow dancing, that's the only time closeness matters. I have another grandmother, yes, yes, he put that one, he put it into her focus, Kim, would you be Arkady, you should really be working on a coffee table, how would Katie like her? that was the one your grandfather was, i mean, he's like a combination of dr.

King and Benjamin Franklin and Confucius, but it seems like it was all of that, all together right when my brother we weren't growing up, we had no idea, but it's funny that as I grew up and started to be a young man and then a grown man on my own He tells everything he said, it's almost as if he had prophesied it and it was incredible and my grandfather was eight years old. I can remember every word my grandfather said about my presence. I live 43 years, my grandmother died in 2004, mmm, jump. I can remember every time she was mad at me, everything she said.

I can almost remember the date he said it. That's how hard I tried in everything they said. Now, coming back to this skill, it is a great individual achievement. pass to Oscar Robinson. I didn't think anyone could win 40 triple

doubles

in a

season

, so that's a huge accomplishment in itself, that's the individual accomplishment, but he plays a team sport if he plays golf like Tiger, who's my guy? I'm all for tennis like Serena, but you play a team sport and your individual success should be directly related to your team's success. You see those teammates after the game last night.

If I look jealous, you shouldn't, you should never be so clever, but. All I'm saying is you're paying Steven Adams $100 million if he doesn't lead your team in rebounding, you need a refund. LeBron's not going to fight TT and Tristan Thompson four rebounds because that's his job, no, he's just going to fight him while they get to this, oh, stop it, he'll stop it, well, your guy threw a guy out, right? What if he saved Katie? I'll buy it, so here, are you going to take off some points from now on? He coached a superstar. This is the best

single

-

season

performance I have ever witnessed.
