Returning to the Clippers next year, Russell Westbrook hopes to win his first career title alongside Kawhi Leonard and company. A revenge against the Lakers is not to be excluded either, since the management of the franchise is still singled out. Some refuse to move on.
A few months later, we can easily say that the association between the Lakers and Russell Westbrook never worked. A front office mistake, although some supporters had seen it coming a very long time ago. However, Brodie finds colors at the Clippers, where he hopes to win the first title of his career next year. It must be said that he has regained a lot of confidence among the neighbors of Los Angeles.

Baron Davis “At the Clippers, Russ was loved by the real people in this town. If you think of LA as a place of entertainment, a source for the media, he didn’t get the attention he should have with the Lakers. But he has always been loved here. (…) To see him play at home is a good thing. It’s good for the city, good for the kids, Russ is a great player, a legend, and a future Hall of Famer. »
For Davis, Westbrook hasn’t had a good treatment at the Lakers, something that’s been widely debated since he left the franchise. Fortunately, everyone wants to turn the page now, and that means winning a title for Brodie.
Davis “Westbrook’s leadership certainly helped the energy the Clippers played with. That kind of determination and that kind of backbone willpower, I think the Clippers needed that. »
We’ll see next year if Russell Westbrook can be a game changer with the Clippers. His first stint seduced, it remains to be seen whether he can find his place among the stars, especially if James Harden strengthens the franchise in a trade. Brodie is expected at the turn.
