Thunder Exit Interviews: Russell Westbrook

Russell Westbrook looks back on the Thunder's 2018-2019 season.

[SteveDeuce]

I wanted him to say, “we just need to do a better job of executing”.

[fredrickwilliams]

Westbrook funny and serious at the same time

[tonyrame]

Westbrook needs to chew gum during all his interviews since it gets him to talk more.

[minorityreport]

Along with Demarcus Cousins, Wesbrook is one of the angriest NBA players I've ever seen.

[soapclean]

He's so humble in a arrogant way if thats possible. And leave you hate comments here

[asm]

How can u say he’s angry? He’s calm but on the defensive because he doesn’t trust the media (rightfully so). Poor guy has gotten so much sh*t and he’s still there, trying to answer to the nonsense. He’s such a good person

[modernwize]

Russ, Youtube commenter here -- how would you say the gum chewing has impacted your interviewing performance?

3:45
"your free throws were better than in the past... Did you just get in rhythm?"

-"Just changed some stuff up"

-"Anything you can tell us?"

-"Uh.... No"

[tylercallaway]

Did he actually answer a question from Barry trammel?

[uptownmonsta]

Not having training camp didn’t affect him much, but not having an offseason did. You don’t go from shooting 80 on the line to 65 if you’re shooting all summer.

[Michael-yekw]

Time to hold this Westbrook accountable as leader of a team that cant progress year after year.

[EricsonPresents]

The gum. 🤦🏾‍♂️ I’m waiting for him to blow a bubble. Lol

[g.o.m.d]

Westbrook does whatever he wants on interviews even chewing gum on his interviews🤣

[tstyle]

The gum is helping him hold back the frustration...which is understandable ....but his arrogance all year makes us wait for this final interview of the year ....he big mad behind the gum

[harriso]

God damn chill out on the lip smacking bruh can’t concentrate

[nadineaugust]

Russ interview got better as it went on. Hes a great player & teammate but needs to practice his shooting & make better shot selection. Im happy hes finally answering barry trammel questions, finally manned up. Chur Russ.

[realdeal]

As a huge Westbrook fan I can honestly say his attitude is horrible. After the beat down Dame gave him and the team as a whole he should be showing humility and giving props to his opponent. It's ok to be confident and even arrogant as a player but you have to have balance.

[drewbeedoobedo]

Blazer fan here, even though I booed him all series and hated his attitude and disrespect towards media and blazers, this dude does have his priorities straight and I can respect that. Family first and everything will fall in line.

[Therealistic]

I'm not a fan of Westbrook at all, but I kind of get where he's coming from here. He has life's priorities sorted out. He has a lot of tools and performs at a high level. What he needs to improve further is to be more controlled and calm on the court when it's called for. That's his main flaw as a player.

[cardoza]

Arrogance only works when you’re winning ...
