How Good Was PRIME Russell Westbrook Actually?

Russ has been getting disrespected so much by people who don’t know what he did in his prime

You can easily criticize him, but averaging a triple double in the NBA isn't an easy feat

It’s sort of wild to think it’s gonna be 7 years since Russ’ MVP season. One of my favorite player seasons ever.

I hate how Russ is gettin all this hate. This man was a beast. And have to say, an absolute worker. Yes, he can miss a lot, but he surely will give his 100% in every game. I really don't get the hate to a person that has never been involved in something bad, looks like a family man and play at his maximum level every day (even if he fails, I know)

Prime Russell Westbrook is a beast! His athleticism is unmatched, and he gets disrespected a lot. I did have some doubts about him in the Clippers after the Lakers incident, but he proved me wrong by dominating like he’s back in his prime years.

People forget how unstoppable russ was in 2014-15 when KD went down, I watched damn near every game that season and once russ got back from his hand injury, it was on a whole nother level, he was doing things where I was like wtf, this is literally like playing 2k, i remember watching that 76ers game, when he went coast to coast pass ish smith and dunk that MFer but even before that, he started the game so hot he was hitting jumper after jumper and had a couple heat check 3’s, I was amazed i never seen anything like it, it was almost as if the 76ers was damn near shut down by just 1 player that game, and russ would do that to almost every team that year, he was unstoppable

People forget how explosive he is and can give a triple double on any given night. I miss the prime version of him

7:53 the claim that Russ never made his teammates better is a inaccurate statement. PG had his most efficient and highest scoring season with Russ, harden had his highest scoring year with Russ in Houston, and finally Bradley Beal had his best year in Washington with Russ. It’s so simple to look at the stats from those years and see how much he added

His back to back triple double campaign was just inhuman!!💯💯💯

Whilst he didnt get the success he would have wanted, the man played with his heart on his sleeves and gave 100%.

people forget how good Russell Westbrook is

Prime Russ was a beast hope he can win a ring one day

Though his rebounding was slightly artificially inflated, there's a good reason why he gets the board. It helps push in transition faster, and he's the best passer on his team, plus it gives everyone else the chance to set up.

One of the greatest to ever set foot on the court top 50 all time. He is top 20 in my books and I wont make any apologies I hope Russ sees this comment section and all the love hes getting. He is a truly incredible talent.

That 3-1 comeback definitely changed the entire NBA, Russ and Kd about to make history by beating 4-1 the legendary 73 wins team. After that his legacy changed forever.

You realize Paul George and Bradley Beal had their best seasons ever with Westbrook as their teammate?

Westbrook disrespect will not be tolerated. Prime Russ is dominating in any era.

He was a beast on the court, a great human off the court. He's just being overhated now. Now, he may not be the best player in the Clippers, but ig he's the most valuable player in terms of performance per million considering his paycut to play with PG and the Clippers.

Nice Job:) Love your content, Nonstop!

Prime Russ is something the real basketball fans know, these recent years arent what he is
