No fear, no preconception.
The basketball camouflage lives in Oklahoma, where he arrived from Los Angeles and at this time there is no person playing with less fear for his health than Russell Westbrook.

I remember the scenes from the final of the SP 2010 year. The rejected ball is played by Asik, Gonlum, Turkoglu and Chandler. From the fifth plan, like jumping into a pool with fully-fledged legs, as if he had a cloak on his back, down Westbrook. For the elbow is higher than the other in the skok. Grab the ball. Parquet flooring. He looks around, holding the ball in his hands like a waving bomber.

Moving in dribbling. It almost falls into the car. Throw the ball back to Igoudali. Run in defense. Bark around the center. He comes back. He is trying to take his place in the attack.

We just looked at the forums without words and started laughing.

Russell Westbrook is all this!

Courage that without a problem crosses the limit of madness. The man who most often makes you say "Stop the fuck!", "Add more" and "Haha, this is an impossible move" after full sprint slides into the hoop by spraying the dangling anger of the entire hall. And these are mostly reactions to some of Westbrook's moves. Any domestic or visiting ground fans stay silent on his spectacular breakthrough, as if they can not even figure out what they have just seen and strike the glances at the big screen waiting for a slow-motion shot and only then the enthusiasm moves .It was not accepted at the beginning. It is not yet fully accepted. Though he is a puppet, he is not. It's no shortage. While playing for the first year at UCLA, neither coach Ben Howland did not know what was in his hands.

Russell was a playmaker without a preview of the game and was kicking off without a shot. Then he created himself and his position on the ground. Self-taught. He did not have an influential coach in his environment as he grew up.

Dad kept him constantly training but the exercises he had invented and which with organized basketball did not have much to do. Howland used it as an aggressive defensive player and a player who mostly scored in the counterattack. About the NBA's future there was not much story, at least not his first year. After all, many were skeptical that the biggest star of that generation Kevin Love would appear in the strongest league with its 30 pounds of surplus, suspicious silence with distance and inadequate reflection. Westbrook was somewhere in the margins.

Then he started the second year. Howland, who during a stay at UCLA gave a large number of NBA players, realized what was available. The camera was still occasionally shown by the late John Wooden, who in the audience pulled a blindfolded eye on Westbrook's additions, but every little bit, Russ would start a rocket launch and then snatched everything to catch his head.

There was no one to set up a toy. In vain advice, guidance, criticism. Russell played his game and looks finally to win. More and more Basketball Puritans may be skimmed but accept Westbrook the way it is. More and more people realize that no matter what Durant is a better player and Russell with all his bosses - lost balls, Nerezons' whispers, excess dribbling, and quarrels with teammates mean for this team almost the same as Durant. The energy Westbrook has at the moment has no one in the league.

Two years ago, the boyfriend had never been hurt. Never. High school. College. NBA. He has played all the games since his style is another marvelous thing. There is no player playing Bolt in the first and 45 minute games. Except one. Which can also be silenced and 40 times in the match.

Westbrook has a little Scottie Pippen in it. In the sense that Pippen was a player who did not break into the air when he was hit, to strike next to his opponent. He always went directly. The same goes for Westbrook. He started right, jumped to the head of the defensive player, and what is it.

I dangled with Rob Hannigan, then with the right hand of Sema Performances, now the general manager of Orland. He talked to him that what Oklahoma played was street basketball. Yes, Scottie Brooks has no idea and style that can win adidas streetball but NBA titles.

Brooks has a special player in the game organizer's place, and if we're to get him to play like any other puppeteer, he'll lose what makes him special ... "

"He kills all the teammates in the term, and he does not feel like leaving the rest of the team." Send him somewhere and bring some normal play, "I said.

I was stupid!.
