He had 17 in the first half.  At the beginning of the 2nd he fell on his wrist again which was scary.  He had a dumb foul at the end of the game, but luckily they still one.

Sorry I'm late doing this.  I have to admit Victor and the Thunder were playing so badly that I went to bed!  Steven Adams is out with a concussion so that is going to hurt that for quite awhile.  

Victor played 24 minutes.  

6 PTS.  3/11

3 REBS

3 ASTS

2 STL

OKC 98  CLIPPERS 120

I would root for the Soviet national team over LeBron's team any day of the week. The thing I don't like is Oladipo plays with Westbrook. I don't care for Russell either

I don't know many people who dislike Russ. I'm curious as to why you do.

I do because he takes too many shots (he should never take a three point attempt), whines and complains when he doesn't get a foul called for him (even though he leads the league in FT attempts), doesn't show respect to most players and just isn't a guy that most players want to team with on a daily basis. He is a good player but it's very apparent that he was holding back Kevin Durant. Kevin and Russell never liked playing with one another because it was too much "your turn, my turn" stuff. And that was usually because of Westbrook. I understand Durant should have been more assertive but the point still stands

I agree him and KD didn't play well together but I don't blame that on Westbrook. KD was just very passive whereas Russ is an aggressive scorer. He has really flourished as the go-to option, although I also agree he takes too many 3's. I love his attitude and the way he comes to play every game like it's game 7 of the Finals. His passion and intensity is incredible. I hope Vic continues to improve from 3 and hit all those open looks Russ gets him.

He does give great passion every game. That can't be denied. Yeah Victor has to hit those open looks that Westbrook gives him. Otherwise, that team has no chance (though I think that's the case anyway). I was rooting like hell for OKC yesterday. I'll root for anyone over LeBron
