After all the shit he got the last week, everybody doubting him, everybody shitting on his legacy, elimination game, series on the line, down 25 and coming thru the way he did

This is what Russ does, man. Never gives up, never quits

Thats the mentality you got to love in a competitor

Unreal

But keep doubting him please, onto the next one

On another note

Very happy for jv, hope they close it out next game

Bron was great. Dipos lay up was goatending but fuck it. Game winner was dope

Sabonis played well. Dipo disappeared after that game 1 performance

Dissapointed in jimmy. Elimination game, dont be like Harden. Take over please

His team was down 25 at home in an elimination game. They came back which is good for them, but they are clearly the inferior team. Those type wins dont come often. Keep typing BP. OKC is an average team.

shout out to the Pacers for going 1 on 1 against LeBron on a last shot attempt. The fuck you think was gonna happen.

Exactly

And those type of wins can change the entire series and the entire team around

Wouldnt expect you to understand tho so not gonna get into it

Dont be surprised when the comeback is complete tho. Ill be the guy saying and typing how i told you so

Remember what Harden did in an elimination game at home vs the Spurs? How about against the Clippers? Remember that? I know you wanted Russ to quit and disappear too but it aint happening son. Even being down 25, its never about quitting. His mind wasnt about the club hes gonna go to after. His mind was about winning. True competitor

Russ had a great game. 45 points and 15 rebounds doesnt happen often. I mean, it only took him 39 shots to get his 45 points, but he did what he needed to down the stretch to bring his team back. The problem is that OKC, the team, is an average team. They have been ever since Durant left. Russ might be a great individual player, but he has yet to lead his team past the first round of the playoffs. Averaging a triple double is cool, but it wont mean anything. Melo was not a good fit for this team, and PG13 was great at times and also absent at times. There wasn't enough consistency. Yes, losing Roberson hurt them, but this team wasnt making it to the WCF with him. You can argue that point all you want, but the reality of what they are right now remains the same. They are average. They are about to lose to the Jazz in Game 6, and ESPN will let their darling Russ off easy. They will need his ratings next season.

Russ and PG13 took 73% of OKC's shots last night. That's crazy. You cant win like that night in and night out. They need help.

Victorious baby!! What an amazing day! I have no words how special this is

With the lowest budget in the league, with no big names. Played as a team. This is what Lithuania is all about. Man oh man

Jasikevicius always gets it done. What a special dude

Like ive said before, wait for him in the nba. I might not be here in 5-10 years but this guy will be coaching somewhere in the nba so remember that
