    Russ loves being home in L.A. and gave an early Christmas performance

    Still not efficient but he did put in work tonight

    6 straight excellent games for Westbrook, for anyone counting. He has been fantastic.

    Credit where credit's due.

    The man has his strong points, and tonight he made the most of them at a time when it was sorely needed.

    He had a good game, but his decision making is concerning. He can't be turning the ball over

    13-31 but he attacked the rim relentlessly and wore them down. Inefficient but effective game by Russ.

    I could careless he went 13-34 or whatever it’s his energy that was key

    Tonight I was out of my mind cheering for Westbrook...and Pat Beverley was annoying the everliving hell out of me.

    I don't know what Bizzaro World I woke up in, but I'm all in, baby!

    Big time win this game should be a model as to what we should be doing on teams that want to guard James aggressively.

    Russ had a marvelous game, but this is also true. Homie was up 12 with the bench and went absolutely nutz, lol.

    Westbrook missed so many easy buckets and had some goofy plays (dribbling off his foot/etc), but every time his hustle to get a second chance was unreal. The dude's motor just doesn't run out of gas and he never gives up on a play. The constant pressure just wears on the other team and grinds them down.

    He turned the ball over a lot; but just by being on his game it was like he was completely unnerving the Clippers.

    I really did come to appreciate Chris Paul here; but when Westbrook is going like this then all of the sudden the Rockets have two forces of nature on the same team. I am really digging what is developing with this team.

    And I will put all of my Rockets lifelong fan cred on the line: Beard & Brodie is a better bromance than Franchise & Cat. And don't even come to me with any of that Parsons/Lin crap!
