And when that happens, the Spurs tripled on him to shut his shit down. And you know Westbrook has that old-school athleticism that puts him in a conversation where they start comparing him to legends. So when he went against a physical team, his shots become altered and more likely to fail. It took a team coached by Pop and two niggas with a Kawhi Leonard to shut him down.
Last night was an example of what happens when Durant becomes the fall-boy to Kawhi while Westbrook is guarded by old-legs Parker. Westbrook can burn past you and not even give a second thought to the rim's wife and kids.
It's a scheme that continues to show itself time and time again.
This year, Spurs and OKC games are going to be a fucking dream to watch. Beautiful basketball vs Billy-D's new offensive adjustments.
I shook after that game.
