anyone watching this philly and indy game? it is a good game so far, but seems a bit crazy the 76ers are playing embid he looks like he is in agony from a back injury on the sideline. Seems crazy for a January regular season game.

He was questionable for back tightness.  Did anything actually happen during the game?

he can't be too  hurt ,  he just took a vicious spill heading full blast down court .  He got up and went back to work.  I thought he was done for on that one.  He must be pretty rugged now

He has been grimacing and laying down on the sideline looking to be in pain throughout the game. He also did take a pretty nasty spill at one point, but has gotten back up and been playing after it. It has reminded me a lot of the time they played him in a nationally televised game against houston when he was already having an injured knee that would put him out the rest of the season.

Westbrook really is a trash player to have in close games late in the game. He went 1-9 or something in the 4th while PG took maybe 1 shot.

If Westbrook was swapped with a point guard similarly rated like Dame or Kyrie I believe OKC would be one of the best teams in the league. Instead they’re repeatedly worse than they should be, and I believe the fault is Westbrook’s

26 pts on 30 shots.  Is anyone more overrated than Westbrook?

Not that I can think of. He really hurts his teams efforts to win.

If Tatum or Brown took 6 3PA on 29% shooting they'd be chased out of town!!

He is the most selfish player ever to average 10 APG.

I have been saying this for years. Westbrook (was) a top 5 player for 3 quarters, but in the 4th he's absolutely unplayable. He just never learned. His play during closing minutes against the Warriors in that famous comeback by the latter was the reason that Durant left him.

Completely agree. He absolutely froze out PG in a similar manner to how he used to occasionally freeze out KD.
It sucks, because I like George and Adams alongside gritty guys like Grant, but I can't see them winning with Westbrook

I got the impression he was doing a better job deferring to George this year, is that not true?
