  I love Russ. I love him at his Bestbrook and I accept him at his Worstbrook. When the rumors started floating about him heading to the Clips, I almost immediately talked myself into it being a good move for the team.

  He brings the kind of fire and accountability that the team lost after Pat Bev left. I also loved Reggie Jackson on the Clips, and they are surprisingly similar players in that they have the potential to be a hero on any given night, but also potentially take the most ill-advised shot in an effort to will the team to victory.

  I just can’t hate on dudes like Westbrook because he obviously leaves everything out there on the floor. He’s the dude I want to see get a ring more than anyone.

    He deserves a ring for no other reason than how badly KD shafted him when we could have been GOATed for years after all the hard work in OKC. Instead, he spent those years as a journeyman.

    Having the SoCal gang win a ring this year or next for the Clips, would be chef’s kiss. But especially for Russ.
