Russell Westbrook has CHANGED his game [I WAS WRONG]

SAY "HI" ON IG!! https://www.instagram.com/a.m.hoops HIT ME UP ON TWITTER!! https://twitter.com/CaseyKeirnan Russell Westbrook shooting threes may be a thing of the past...kind of. The former MVP is now on the Rockets and his game has evolved into shooting the fewest threes of his career and his game is better for it. Westbrook is trying to lead the Rockets to a top 4 seed and he is changing the way he plays basketball in the process. In this video we explore what Russ has done to evolve his game and what it means to the playoffs. Historically Westbrook has been an inefficient shooter but it's only gotten worse the past few years. By the time he got to Houston Russ was a career 30% shooter from downtown. He was back to his old ways the first 25 games of the season but slowly started to evolve. Now Russell Westbrook and James Harden are unleashing their best offense on a nightly basis and are an efficient offense too. The Rockets front office went all in on the Westbrook-version of their franchise when they traded Clint Capela to the Hawks and got Robert Covington in return. That move unclogs the paint and allows Westbrook to drive and kick or finish as he sees fit. The Rockets have traded away most of their valuable future draft assets and will are living for this season more than almost any team in the league. Let me know in the comments if you think the Rockets have even an outside shot at winning a title or if this will be a continuation of the failure we've seen in H-Town for years.
