This is Russell Westbrook's last chance.
He's now a member of the Lakers, with the best chance he's had, and will likely have to be a major part of a championship team.
Here's what's happened up to this point, and what may happen next.

Earlyyy
Thought I was tripping with the Pokémon theme playing
No cap Dom i dindt follow the NBA when Keving Garnet finaly won that ring, so i cant speak on the emotions running through my veins, but i was there when Lebron said " Cleaveland this is for you" i felt that, i never travelled to USA nor knew Cleaveland, but i felt the love Bron had for his city.
I started as a Russel fanboy in 2017, there isnt a simple way to say why, its just something on the way he plays, its like watching Ippo dempsey roll for the first time, punch after punch after punch, the energy, like a wild animal that happens to know basketball, and if that guy can finaly take that ring even if he is riding behind LBJ, when i go back and watch Garnett i can finaly say, i get it.
I can already see it: Even if Russ plays amazing this season, if the Lakers lose in the Finals (or don’t even make it), he will be the scapegoat.
If he plays amazing they will win theres no in between
If he plays amazing in the regular season and drops a turd in the playoffs you will still act like this narrative is true. Lol
@@mydogsnameislucy768 sounds like an assumption for someone you don’t know bro.
That's a big if for someone who takes 24 shots a game to average 21 points and 5 turnovers since KD's departure
Really depends on how much they involve him
Another heater from the great Dom 💯🔥
AD is most likely going to become the third option
Nooooo he’s too good scoring wise
Wtf is that background music?
We’ve never seen Russ as a third option… that’s a scary sight
In the future its going to be like then who was 1st and 2nd option ? 😭
Faxxxx
Is it really tho? Considering how ball dominant he is?
Yeah we say this every year man russ just isn’t a winning player
@@shaanajaz8541 yes I feel like AD will be looking like a third option this year
Yeah Westbrook blew his last chance 💀💀
Dom got that GSC Dark Cave music. Certified GameBoy Classic.
Edit: Mt. Moon music.
Nooo that’s that Pokémon RBY Dungeon/Cave/Mt. Moon music.
@@TheBlackScatPack You right.
@@TheBlackScatPack I remember playing this game in 2nd grade getting lost in that place.
It’s both but one is remixed
@@TheUndefeatedOfTheEast I hated all those damn Zubats 😭😭😂😂
When Russ was in the bubble he was playing on a bum hamstring, you can’t just “yadda yadda” that away when it comes to a pg who relies on his athleticism.
He was also having a great year once they traded away Capela. Then he caught covid and had the hamstrings injury
@@user-tb1jw5dv4s Yeah he was arguably playing the best basketball of his career. After the new year he was averaging 32.4 PPG on 53% shooting.
Exactly! Skipping over details to fit the narrative. Tell the whole story
did yall even watch the video
he said he was unhealthy
@@panthersfantre He literally said that Russ was unhealthy and mentioned COVID, did you watch the video?
it's always been tough being a Russ fan, this is my last time being a blind optimistic and hoping that he could play well with somebody . This is his best chance imo to play with a playmaker better at playmaking whom may be able to suggest to be poise in clutch moments (LBJ & Rondo)
lakers 6 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
It may turn out that Russ ages well. If he can stay healthy, and starts making better decisions with the ball, he could be the rare superstar who peaks later in his career. John Stockton played his last NBA finals at age 35, and Karl Malone was 34, and they were still the best players on that squad. The real question is this: How does Russ adapt to slowing down? Does he double-down on trying to pretend he's still 24 and hurt himself? Or does he develop his finesse game and get more crafty? 38 year-old MJ was just a shadow of 24 year-old self, but he was still a top 50 player.
I raise an interesting take, I think he'll start to rely on his playmaking ability heavily and bring stats similar to prime rondo (maybe 14 and 11 a game). The key to his success would to be an alt playmaker with lebron and the primary playmaker and scorer when lebron sits. He would have to thrive on off ball cuts and screens to score in the paint, and when he can't, go to his playmaking ability and find an open man, perhaps a trailing AD
@@CBall97CEP I'll raise it to an even more interesting take, how will Russ be an effective playmaker when his playmaking is dependent on his athleticism, he simply blows by defenders which open up teammates because of rotations. If he steers away from that, what will he offer offensively. He's a sub par shooter from any range, he is not an elite level finisher as well. His on ball defense shows us flashes of brilliance but then his off ball defense brings us all back down.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh nah.
@@badxgrass his time in Houston and Washington has shown he can be an effective piece and playmaker without being THE guy. And he won't have to force anything with the pieces around him, you see what he creates from teams with subpar pieces other than another star, I feel he's got a lot of options on this loaded team. Again I'm not asking mvp numbers, just avg a double double should be enough to be a great asset to the lakers. It's a fair point to point out his athletism but atm he's not showing signs that he lost it, yeah he's not AS good as mvp russ, but on this team he doesn't need to be imo
@@ImBarryScottCSS I didn't say it *would* happen, I said it might. :)

Another Pokemon soundtrack...I'm seeing a pattern that I enjoy
Look I said once it was official Russ is gonna be playing for the lakers if the lakers lose in the finals or don’t even make the playoffs or whatever Russ will be the scapegoat and he won’t ever get a chance of winning another championship being 2nd 3rd best player on the team
Definitely
E: I dig the gbc pokemon music lol
Russel Westbrook will forever go down as the most athletic PG in history!!
Pre-injury Derrick Rose? Not even close.
@@DamnWhoAsked The fact russ has kept this level of athleticism for this long, especially with how hard he plays, just solidifies that hes the most athletic pg of all time. Not to mention I think he has the fastest recorded speed in an nba game over rose and john wall. Dont quote me on that tho.
DeAaron Fox
@@reidb6327 Fox is barely fsster than russ and russ is in his 30s
I agree completely with his MVP season. Forget the stats and he carried a team that was out of the playoffs to 2 wins from the 3rd seed. Plus the game winning shot to send them into the playoffs and idk how you say he didn’t deserve it. Most underrated MVP season ever
Social Media hate Russ, a championship won't change that sadly. Still hope he wins a ring, he more than deserves it.
He wins and is the 2nd best player vs a healthy nets I think his narrative will change
Social media hates anything in general
@@j.j.r98 I bet people will still find a way to hate because in this world, sometimes no matter what you do it just isn’t enough for some people which shows how ungrateful some are
No people don't hate him, he's just been very overrated for most of his career
@@lakerskid2013 a lot of so called "hate" russ gets is just constructive criticism. Its not a stretch to say he's one of the dumbest pgs to ever play this game, and his box score numbers are massively overrated.
Russ not taking none of these shots when Bron or AD on the court
Seeing a Dom face-cam video feels strange like I'm used to it on Twitch but UA-cam? just feels weird like I'm used to just a moving background of highlights and points interesting...
You ? I been listening to his videos since I was like 19 lol I’m 27 now and this is my first time seeing what his face looks . Not that I care . I don’t I’m just saying. I rather just hear his voice .
@@smdideleted6327 he hasnt been making videos for 8 years..
@@Fllemingo he kinda has I’m 27 now he been was since I was like 20, it’s been more than 7 years technically writing

Shoutout to Pokémon red, blue, and yellow soundtrack 🤙🏻😎
nice use of the pokemon rby dark cave music btw
Feels like I'm playing Pokemon Red, trying to get through Team Rocket tower in Saffron City.
Here's what's gonna happen - WestBrick played with Lebron, then LBJ traded him 😂
1st time i ever seen dom face .. his face don’t match his voice
No way. Nice hot take, but let’s remember Russ helped lead the wizards to the playoffs. If Lakers lose and wizards slide he’ll still be more than wanted
I don’t know what to think of this team, especially with the addition of Russ. One part of me thinks this team is going to be near unstoppable, due to their insane depth. But on the other hand it’s yet to be seen how Russ and all these new additions will play together. Either way it’s going to be an interesting season for the Lakers that’s for sure!
Russ and Bron have never had a losing team, thats all you need to know
Yup, really can’t wait how they’ll play together. Hopefully it all works out for them.
@@Notcleverenough russ has always been a turnover machine, cant wait to see his ball dominant gameplay in the playoffs!
They will stink and it's obvious
Yea u were right man, they unstoppable right now
The biggest thing said here: “Russ is playing with a chief decision maker.” Will make all the difference.
And one of the most efficient leader of all time.
Not just Lebron direct intervention, Russ himself wouldn't want to waste and mess this chance up.
I almost expect LeBron to coast and let Westbrook carry us, get MVP consideration, only for LeBron to take over in the playoffs and none of the team is accustomed to the style and Russ gets blamed
No one can get accustomed to Russes style
Man, all the takes on the comments section are hilarious in hindsight
Russ should be coming off the bench. The starting lineup will be fine without him, but if you have him coming off the bench he could give an extra spark. Plus, a triple double machine coming off your bench would be a great X factor
With LeBron at the wheel I belive/hope that this is a different Westbrook, LeBron will not allow that old Westbrook habits allowed on his team otherwise he's gone lol. That's why we probably got rondo as an insurance policy. But this time around Westbrook dosent have that pressure of making thoes big time plays as a first option. And he's on a team full of vet's with high basketball IQ. But end of the day we shall see.
Averages a trip dub and is now playing with lebron. 😆😆😆😆 go watch soccer my boy
I watch NBA breakdowns more than the actual NBA lol. You're just nice to listen to. Reasonable but still entertaining. Nothing extra with thumbnails or out there takes.
If lebron wanted Russ on the laker it’s for a reason
bruh, if he don't win in purple and gold, he might as well go to the darkside and bring back kd, harden and russ. but then again that won't work because of kd and russ
Do you think 2021 was CP3's last chance??
Does anyone see Westbrook averaging a 20 point triple double with the lakers this season? Who carries the numbers on that team? Whoever feeling it on that particular night? Bring on this craziness 😁
Lebron has hall of fame floor general and dimer so Westbrook will be fine 😭
Wait dom… ur down horrifix… ur a celtics and lakers fab
It’s going to be one hell of a ride . When they do win , they going to say it’s because he was with LeBron .I been telling kd fans for years LeBron can win a ring with Russ , and that will be proven 3 weeks ,
He's gonna carry the Lakers in regular season then Franky V gonna bench him in the 4th quarter when playoffs comes in
Facts this is his last opportunity honestly if it doesn’t work I think he’ll just be send to an allright team where he can try to make the playoffs as a 6th or 7th seed until is all over
Once russ supermax expires he can just ring chase on the minimum
3:10 he did the same thing agains the blazers game 5 which lead to dame hitting the game winner. dude took a layup on like 3 people
Russ looks different regular season then playoffs
Hero ball
Yup
LeBron & Davis aren’t having that mess
I was so annoyed. PG was having a great scoring game at great efficiency but this guy needed to play hero ball because of his ego (clash with Lillard) & low basketball iq.
Was the transition at 2:14 intentional? It was clean tbh
The one narrative that will end is that you can actually win with Russ if they do win a championship this year as it has always been told you can never win a championship with Russell Westbrook
It's also Melo's last chance, at a ring....
The way u sat there for 12 mins talking bout Westbrook would make me think he’s not 3rd in clutch scoring with higher efficiency than harden and dame for the last decade but it’s crazy Bc he is
and he didn’t win not one chip.. said all that for nothing bro
@@StaylowDame neither have dame or harden?
@@StaylowDame ok dame dolla go head and talk abt chips since ur favorite player knows so much abt dem 😭
@@sundevils1998 right but who TF said they did ?
@@Justin-nk3zv My real name is actually Dame bozo and my favorite players are Kobe & KD…
I've always said if Russ woulda moved to SG he would have been won a chip! I love his game he just needed a leash!! No point guard should perform how he perform 🤷🏿♂️!!
He can’t shoot like that though, most sgs are there to spread the floor/create shots, the other part is his playmaking becomes minimised
Watch vogel play rondo and russ together lmao
I honestly don’t care about nba storylines or any of the narratives anymore. I just like watching basketball. I only watch these videos cus I just fw you heavy.
Old Pokemon soundtracks just hit different
A lot of Dom's videos have aged graciously
Russ is there to keep an aging bron and a fragile ad healthy, russ and some bums will always make the playoffs and a low mileage Davis and cryo chamber bron is still ridiculous
I have….a take. Russ should come off the bench for the Lakers. He’d be the best bench player not named “Steph Curry” or “Klay Thompson”. Other teams would have too chose between sitting their starters against him or keeping their starts in and that would allow Bron and AD to pick them apart.
How you gon say “covid he wasn’t healthy yadada” like that doesn’t matter 💀
I love Russ. I don't get the disrespect. Gives 100% EVERY game. Led the league in assists 3 out of the last 4 seasons. Which he is also currently 12th all time. He is a former MVP and has led the league in scoring. He has also been the best in the clutch before. If this was any other player everybody would be saying how amazing he is. Now he is ranked in the 30s of nba players with the likes of Ben Simmons ahead of him which is just laughable.
He's gonna crush it this season.
It’s because on sometimes he does the dumbest stuff on the court and his shooting has gone down a bit
Because he struggles in the playoffs and often makes dumb plays and shoots bricks 🧱
I think that Russ CAN make it work but they have to create opportunities for lebron and Russ to score
Russ N Pg was a fire duo 🔥 even tho they ended horrible
I really do think Russell Westbrook will get a ring now
Respect to the old school Pokémon sounds in the background 👌👊
I know this is off topic but I feel like Ben Simmons to the clippers might be an amazing fit if a trade were to happen.
Russ and AD on the court will be interesting
How have i watched you this long and never seen your face? Great to put a face to the voice behind some of my favourite youtube videos
I just don’t think the world likes people named Russ to be honest I fucks with all the russ’s tho
russell westbrick: great athlete + low bb-iq = A.I. 2.0
I personally never saw the Rus-led OKC as actual title contenders.
why is there just a westbrook lowlights compilation in the back lmao
The pokemon music is a vibe🔥🔥
I have no respect for a point guard that gets his triple doubles by standing where the center is suppose to on free throws
Russ kicking out to LeBron for a brick was amazing lol, shows you how limited they are off ball compared to Kobe and MJ
I'm gonna renjoy watching russ carry this team at times in the regular season and then becoming one of the deadliest 3rd options in the playoffs. Bron can coast and AD can rest
Definitely one of the funniest comments on UA-cam.
well
Imma track Russ down if he fucks shit up for my favorite team
“If” they dont win they arent 😂 nets exist even no kyrie nets better 😂
Playing that Pokémon cave music on the lowkey
If LeBron was able to get Dwight Howard to buy in to focusing on just his strengths, he should be able to get Russell Westbrook to do the same
He’ll need a lot of luck
Dwight was already a role playing big man by time he got him.. two different type of players.
can’t compare a old big man to a player who’s still fairly in they prime.. AND just came off another triple double season.. AND play the point guard dominant position. They gonna need GOD and MOSES to figure out how they’ll mesh.
Dwight Howard was already buy in player
He became one that season. The years before, he was still trying to be a star on the team
@@gmdwill different circumstances when you’ve been a dominant point guard since OKC. Dwight was a journey man on the Hawks and Hornets. Stop comparing the two, Dwight wasn’t nowhere as near ball dominant as Westbrook and we both know that. This man has been top 2 in the league in usage rate for the last 8 years. When has Dwight ever led the league in usage rate ? This is a BIG IF for this Lakers team to work.
Once again, I can’t say enough how fire the background is when you do these videos.
He needs to be the sixth man giving the spark off the bench(to me)
Russ is surely going to be fine. I’m sure most are gonna get a big surprise
Any team that has Anthony Davis, Lebron, or Russ as a possible 3rd option is going to be ok
This video is becoming a self-fulling prophecy.
What animations are those at 11:32 ? They're Fuego
Russ needs the ball
2013 Lakers all over again.
Bro I swear mfs be saying this his last chance every time he gets on a new team
We already knew Kyrie was anti-vax. He isn't really anti-vax he's just anti-. Literally anything you can think of, Kyrie must feel the opposite, just for the sake of it. It's always good to go your own way, but some people just have to be contrary for the sake of doing it.
He’s a clown 🤡
The Pokémon music got me tripping for a min lmao
One of the scary things is the idea of a double screen from AD and LBJ and a shooter either corner.
Lebron benefits so much from having a secondary playmaker to allow him to attack of the catch
Russ is more compairble to Iverson, who also had a "but"
This video sounds like media wannabe
Yo Dom, stop looking down and look at the camera bro!
I actually REALLY agree with this. I've been thinking about this a lot lately. Cuz what will he have or where will he be able to go after this. He's low-key regressing because of injuries (but don't get it twisted thought, he still a star/superstar)
3:08 this was the game Kd decided to join GSW
I feel like I’ve watched this video before. Weren’t people saying this about Russ when he was on the Rockets?
i mean jordan won 3 rings from ages 33-35 so
Russ will figure it out in LA!!
This background music is everything 🙌🏽
Yal say that every year about brook , it's gonna be his last chance next year to
comparing Russ to Howard is wild lol
