Reverse Growth Superstar

Russell Westbrook did not disappoint Bill Simmons.

Before the start of the All-Star Game, he almost slapped the entire league in the face.

On February 8, facing the current 33 wins and 18 losses in the Western Conference Los Angeles Clippers, the Oklahoma City Thunder once again did something unexpected.

Although the Clippers missed Griffin and J.J. Redick, the Thunder is not a complete lineup. Therefore, no one is optimistic about the Thunder before the game.

Russell Westbrook beat Paul to the bottom, and the league's first point guard was completely disgraced in Oklahoma.

Paul's performance is actually very good, 18 points and 13 assists, 7 of 13 shots, 53.8% shooting.

It stands to reason that when Paul plays this type of data, the Clippers are almost impossible to lose.

But not only did the Clippers lose in Oklahoma, they also lost terribly.

108 to 131, the Thunder completely bloodbathed the Clippers, completely ruthless.

Westbrook was like a god-assisted person today. He had a low hit rate in his daily life, but he had a 66.7% hit rate in this game!

"The Turtle" did not wave three-pointers today, and made three shots from beyond the three-point line.

He honestly used his powerful breakthroughs to attack the Clippers' penalty area, and scored the ball many times in strong confrontations.

In the third quarter, the Thunder even blew the Clippers 16 points!

If the Thunder defeated the Pelicans in the last game was just an appetizer, then defeating the Clippers today will undoubtedly be a feast for the Oklahoma City fans.

Westbrook scored 35 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists. Although not as impressive as the 45 points in the previous game, this performance cannot be said to be not good enough.

For the second consecutive game, Westbrook saved the Thunder with his explosive performance.

Bill Simmons wrote an article specially after the game to praise Westbrook's excellent performance, which he called, "a superstar who has finally matured."

It takes a lot of courage to directly apply the word "superstar" to Westbrook.

Westbrook is indeed one of the best guards in the league, but no matter whether it is a hard honor or a team performance, it can not reach the level of a superstar.

If you want to choose a star with the most controversy in the league, Westbrook is definitely one of them.

Generally speaking, Bill Simmons will not catch a cold with such a player.

But in order to push Westbrook up, Simmons wouldn't be stingy with his exquisite words.

Westbrook's subsequent performance at the press conference made Bill Simmons extremely pleased.

"I just want to win. I have agreed with Kevin to wait for him to come back in the finals. So, I am fearless now."

When a player, especially a capable player, really wants to win, the power he bursts out is unpredictable.

Harden played so well in January, not because he simply wanted to win, but simply because he wanted to get the best of the month.

Therefore, his team record is mediocre, and the data does not surpass Link.

But Westbrook is different. At least for now, he is more obsessed with winning than Harden.

Westbrook fulfilled his promise to Durant. He led the team to win 4 of the 5 games before the All-Star Game!

In addition to the Pelicans and the Clippers, the Thunder also won the Magic and the Nuggets. In addition, Westbrook has scored 40 points in two of the five games, and the momentum is stronger than Harden last month.

Due to the All-Star Game, when the regular season starts again, it will be the end of February.

It can be said that Westbrook has now played almost half of the game in February.

So far, Westbrook has averaged 34 points, 10.1 assists and 8.3 rebounds per game in February! This terrible statistic is already close to the quasi triple-doubles that Link played in November!

Moreover, the Thunder's record is not bad. With the quasi-triple-double data and the excellent record, if the Thunder and Westbrook can maintain the games at the end of February, then he will definitely be the best of the month!

Because Link played in February until now, he averaged only 25.5 points, 7.4 assists and 7.1 rebounds per game.

Like last month, Link's data is not bad, but it is not amazing.

In particular, it is still in comparison with Westbrook.

Under the hype of Bill Simmons, Westbrook's call for the Player of the Month is getting louder and louder.

As a result, a game that had not received much attention before the All-Star Game has now become hot.

Before the All-Star Game, the currently vigorous Thunder will meet the Memphis Grizzlies, the league's number one ruler!

Westbrook, who is averaging nearly a triple-double per game, has to win the best link of the season in all months.

Last month, Link failed to face off directly against Harden, the best competitor of the month. But in February, fans will never miss such a wonderful performance.

The game between the two teams will start at the Chesapeake Energy Arena on February 11. Although the game has not been temporarily changed to a national broadcast, the on-site ticket price has been fired up.

According to local media reports in Oklahoma City, the average price of this game is more than double the usual.

In an interview, Westbrook also bluntly expressed his desire to defeat the Grizzlies.

"I know that we have been blocked by Memphis people from the finals more than once. But this year, such things are absolutely not allowed to happen. I promised Kevin, I said I will wait for him in the finals. In that case, I have to lead the team to kill the Grizzlies first. I know the Grizzlies will definitely make the Western Conference finals, and the entire Western Conference won’t take them anymore, except for us.

Westbrook has always spoken bluntly. He is not aimed at anyone, but really wants to prove himself.

The speech of "The Turtle" undoubtedly caused great comfort for the Oklahoma City fans. To say which city fans in the league hate the Grizzlies most, they may not be able to count them with one hand.

But Oklahoma City is definitely one of them.

Durant and Link are deadly enemies, and the Thunder were blocked by the Grizzlies from the finals. Although the team history of the two teams is very short, this does not prevent them from having deep grievances.

"I believe Russell~www.wuxiaspot.com~ he will definitely make Link look good."

"Westbrook is a real man, I know the Thunder are in a difficult time now. However, no one will doubt Westbrook now, he will definitely lead the team through the difficulties."

"Link said he was going to finish the monthly best of the entire season? First ask Westbrook if he agrees!"

Oklahoma City is full of confidence, because Westbrook is indeed very invincible in this young half month.

And Link? When interviewed by reporters, Link did not continue to make a confident appearance, nor did he express his satire about Westbrook and Thunder.

This is not because Link has become less confident in the face of Westbrook, who is averaging triple-doubles, but because the Grizzlies are really in trouble.

Facing Westbrook, the Grizzlies' main point guard, last season's All-Star point guard Mike Conley, sprained his ankle.
