Look, we've spotted the hater.

Not a hater hes a great player and fun to watch. Just way overhyped cause people fall for the triple double nonsense without acknowledging context

 

KD could average the same thing no problem if he played the entire game with the ball in his hands and went after every rebound as hard as he could needlessly (yes sometimes that is a great attribute but i see Russ going after rebounds like his life is on the line when the ball is already falling into Adams or Kanters hands and zero opposing players are within 20 feet of the ball. That isnt effort to win thats effort for stats

This team a complete disaster with the ball in someone else's hand. Sabonis, Grant and Roberson. Three complete black holes offensively, but tripp bitching about Russell taking shots and not giving it to those guys.

Russ takes bad shots, thats the issue. He thinks hes steph or KD from 3 when hes a terrible 3 pt shooter. Not only not all time great like those guys but terrible

 

Hes a better driver than either of them but takes sooo many terrible 3s. His game is driving and pull up mid range shots (or the same shot when he backs down smaller guards and takes the mid range over them).

ANd i get he doesnt have a lot of creators beside him. Thats fair. Still doesnt change the context of his stats. Love didnt have anything good beside him in Minnesota either, but still important to remember the context of those fantastic numbers hed put up

 

And lets also remember Russ had one of the greatest offensive players to ever play the game in KD but couldnt win and ran him out of town with his style of play

KD is the leading rebounder on GS, a team with no bigs, and doesn't even average 10 rebounds a game when they need rebounding. LOL, you are delusional.

 

You're now arguing that Durant could get more rebounds but he doesn't try hard enough to do it. That's somehow a valid point for your side somehow.

 

And you're making up some nonsense about stealing rebounds from teammates lol. The Thunder are one of the better rebounding teams in the NBA because of their PG; one of the three best in fact. Without him, they're middle of the pack at best.
