Did Russell Westbrook steal his own Thunder?

But that just backs up my point, Russ was the system. They catered so much to the Russ "get your triple doubles" when he wasn't on the floor they had no game plan. That's a huge reason why they were bad. You are using that as a pro for Russ where I am saying that is a negative for him. We are perceiving the same thing in two different ways. Ultimately, unless you're Lebron, having one guy use up so many possessions does not work out for a team in the long run. And it didn't for Russ.

Westbrook didn't lead Harden in clutch performance. Maybe it's selection bias because you're remember the Nuggets game but Harden's great/clutch games came in the beginning of the season. But Harden was just as clutch as WB if not more.
