In the 7 games Kevin Durant missed in February, Russell Westbrook averaged 31.2 PPG, 10.0 RPG and 11.3 APG.

utterly insane, beautiful

this is what we wanted when kd was out at the beginning of the year but then russ got hurt and we were robbed

unfortunate that he needs a new face

life is like that sometimes

yeah russ has been bananas

russ winning mvp wld be the most incredible thing and prob they wld have to cancel the award after that

interesting

has westbrook not heard of corner threes yet bc they seem pretty popular elsewhere

star players tend not to take too many corner three thats more a randos shot

davis and bron have almost the same fgm/fga around the basket

harden is big on the corner three but it's houston so the data is unreliable

even then tho compared to how many he takes from above the break

lol @ the fact that Davis' only made 3 on the season was that spirit-breaker against okc three weeks back.

murderrrr

RIP Anthony Mason

RIP MASE, loved that guy on the court
may require a thread

oh god that alexey shved shot #rip

feel like we might need a poll to determine whether it was a shot or a pass

twitter saying westbrook had his face surgeried today, to remove the dent i guess

Russell Westbrook had procedure Saturday to address fracture to the zygomatic arch of right cheek. Will be re-evaluated later in the week.

Waiters 7-29 games coming right up

Russell Westbrook won't miss much time with surgery. "If he had a playoff game (Sunday), he could play," league source tells Yahoo Sports.

so they really did just plunger that thing back into place after all huh

i seem to remember iverson cutting quite a lot but yeah he was mostly a midrange guy. mostly seemed like a silly thing to say in the moment.

As the ILH resident AI expert I dispute this

It's true he relied on the fadeaway midrange J later in his career but he attacked the hell out of the basket when he was young

RIP Mase :((

aw man. 48 years old

so glad russ is going to be ok, i was never his biggest fan but this recent run is converting me, he is just an insane tireless wind up basketball action figure.

iverson famously took it to the hoop, took many free throws, also shot from midrange a lot, also from deep, generally just tons of shooting

hahahah yeah . this is true too

this young wolves team is the future. adrian payne, not a great player but could be a nice role (24yo i guess)

not having kevin love huge for them

wiggins i guarding zbo rn lol

spurs laying a beatdown on the spurs rn

omg the suns have 24 points at halftime

TWENTY FOUR

lol just caught my typo

ya the suns look deflated, just slumping body language all over, cant hit for nothing
