    Jokic, the owner of the lakers, getting Russ to the Nuggets after being mistreated by the Lakers is poetic justice.

      I've seen every nuggets game for last 8 years and they didn't take russ fron lakers. Lakers russ still had attitude about coning off the bench but clippers Brodie adjusted and offeredto come off the bench which then made him perfect for denver. He had to downshift in his mentality between lakers and clippers staym.no way he would of worked in denver if he had that same attitude he had in la

    Don't you see, when he doesn't see Michael Malone, Calvin Booth-Jamal Murray doesn't want to spend, he fulfilled his goal, he signed a max contract as if he was an All Star and MVP. 52,250,000 per season. His contract is secure and he will play sometimes when he is allowed to play. With a max contract he has to be a starter. Imagine that a player with 52 million per season sits on the bench and JS plays with a contract for 2 million. JM-MPJ as starters have the worst first half in the NBA - they don't want to play defense, when they play badly they say it's our fault, as MPJ said at the end of the season - they say we're to blame for the defeat but they go to the bank and withdraw money - the money is safe no matter how you play.

    Wesbrook had and still has basketball in him, he just needed to have the right teammates around him. Denver is great for him not only because of Jokic, but also because of the possibility of Westbrook settling down and getting security for the next few years. After all, Lebron and the Lakers put a bad image about him. Lebron, who otherwise has been suffocating the Lakers for several years, is not a good teammate to anyone on the team except himself.

    You all feel to realize one thing and this is nature you can't change it every year you get you get another age and as you age your body does too so I don't know where y'all get this damn he's supposed to be playing like he was in OKC or when he was with the Lakers or the wizard or whoever he played the way his body gives him the permission to play at his age I don't know where you damn commentators come on with that they should be playing the way you saw them when they was in their early twenties when they was in their early thirties know when you make a year your body takes a Year too and that means everything that you did when you was 20 you're not able to do that so I don't know why commentators are they would want us to think that we supposed to be looking at the OKC Russell Westbrook I see him as the age that he is and he playing damn good for us I'm concerned he's confident with the team that he's on he has a lot more patient than he did when he was with any of them other teams that I saw this is my opinion not a damn comment and my opinion and right now I think he's playing damn good to be his age cuz I'm concerned LeBron James is playing damn good to be his age you don't see too many point guards at that age that still that explosive so don't come talking about AIDS because I think that Kareem played until he was well almost in his forties by him being the center he had the height if I'm not mistaken so did Robert Parish all because they had the height that kept them able to stay in the game but they was not an explosive if they would have been in their twenties or the 30s so why don't the commentators be real and stop talking about that the people think no they just say what y'all think this is my opinion why you don't never say this is my opinion and I think blah blah blah blah blah that's what you should say not be just throwing it out there like this is the way it should be the man is older and I still think he's still explosive in his old age if y'all want to call it old age I don't never talk about nothing else but their talent he still has it from what I see my opinion again not no damn comment I think he still play like the I want to say the early 30 Russell okay but I understand that he's getting older and his body is too
