MAGIC are you retarded?



This article below is ridiculous and hard to read. First off Magic. What are you talking about. You lost all credibility as a commentator for that stupid comment in my book. That was retarded. Are you retarded? Worst PG performance ever in the Finals? He almost had a triple double. Some players just catch the media buzz and can't get away from it. Like Lebron and Tebow. Some players always get the blame and it does not make sense. Russell Westbrook is awsome. I would rather have Westbrook than Durant personally. If you take Russell Westbrook off OKC team. Would anybody consider them more athletic and having more  speed than their opponents. I think not.  He is a athletic beast and he is money from anywhere within 20ft and he can get it off whenever. Jeff Gundy summed up what I think was OKC's problem in the telecast for game 2. He said it is just human nature. You won game one so the other team is gona come back with more urgency get the win. He said they need to stop listening to their friends and family telling them how great they were in game 1. And champions would not make that mistake. So I do not really know who will win series. And yeah Westbrook could have played better and could do some things differently. But to get comments from Magic and Stephen A Smith criticizing him like that is blasphemy. Magic, Bird was way better than you anyway. You annoyed me with your stupid no look passes when you did not need to not look. I did seem to enjoy you though as a commentator. I have always like what you say until now. And Stephen A Smith does not have a original thought is his whole body. He just goes with whats trending. Just think how good Westbrook would be if Durant wasn't on the team. I think he is very unselfish.  I think he needs to be more selfish. It is just he is a point gaurd so the rest of the team needs him to distribute. Which he does. Don't get me wrong though they would not be as good without Durant. Durant is a freakin stud and should be their number one option. But man do I love watchin Russell Westbrook play. He can get by anybody and he has such a quick jumper.

MIAMI -- Russell Westbrook has been the NBA Finals' most polarizing figure so far, and he has no intention of changing that, or his game.
Westbrook has drawn criticism for his decision-making and shot selection that has contributed to the Oklahoma City Thunder falling behind the Miami Heat in the first halves of Games 1 and 2.
ABC analyst Magic Johnson said Westbrook had one of the worst performances for a point guard in the Finals that he'd seen, after the Heat built a 17-point lead in the first half of Game 2 en route to a 100-96 win, evening the series at 1-1.
"I'm not making no adjustments, regardless of what anybody says," Westbrook said Saturday before the Thunder's practice. "I'm going to play my game regardless of what happens."
Westbrook is averaging what would seem like an impressive 27 points, eight rebounds and nine assists in the Finals, but it's his 40 percent shooting on a team-high 50 shots in the first two games that's garnered more ire. Kevin Durant, who is shooting a remarkable 57 percent in the Finals, has taken eight fewer shots.
Teammates and coach Scott Brooks, however, have been staunch in defending Westbrook's play.
"We need Russell to score. I know some (people) don't like that," Brooks said. "He got off to a bad start but he came back. Him and Kevin are both terrific players, they both have to score points for us to be successful. I don't look at who gets more, who doesn't get more. I look at the quality of the shots. Could Russell have taken two or three better shots? Absolutely. Going into (Game 3), hopefully that's the case."
Said Durant: "Everyone thinks he should be a traditional point guard like a (John) Stockton. There's a lot of people that cannot be like Russ either. Of course he's going to make mistakes."
This is the continuation of an issue that has been a common talking point since the playoffs last year. The shot comparison between Durant and Westbrook is closely watched by critics. Westbrook's attitude on the matter has remained mostly constant.
"It's just something that comes along with the territory," Westbrook said. "We're in the NBA Finals now and the more negative you hear, the better you're doing. That's how I look at it."
