Yeah, because everything exists in a vacuum, right? It's not like the Thunder lost their head coach, and Harden, or anything...Like 2 years ago when Westbrook only played 46 games, the Thunder finished 59-23, and Durant won the MVP? No, I didn't watch that season at all. Or last year when Durant played only 27 games and the Thunder didn't even make the playoffs.
When Ambiturner is telling you that you're trying too hard, that's saying something.
Russell Westbrook Wasn??Tt Supposed To Get Better Than Kevin Durant | FiveThirtyEight
Analytics agree with me, not you.Meanwhile, Westbrook has spent the past two seasons running over the league - by most measures, snatching "best player on the team" honors right out from under the ex-MVP Durant, even with Durant back to relatively full health.
Ever since Durant took home that hardware, Westbrook has outshone him in both Real Plus-Minus (8.1 to 5.6) and Box Plus/Minus (10.7 to 6.7).
