Russell Westbrook Proposes A New Approach to Clippers’ Lineup Crisis
In a surprise move, Russell Westbrook has expressed his desire to Ty Lue to come off the bench for the LA Clippers. The strategic proposition has been made keeping in mind the recent performance halt faced by the Clippers.
Westbrook Offers Bench Solution Amid Clippers’ Slump
– Westbrook’s offer to come off the bench is an attempt to bring about some semblance of continuity and stability amongst the Clippers’ starters.
– This move comes in response to the Clippers’ unimpressive track record of 0-5 post the trade of James Harden.
– One major issue facing the Clippers is an uneven offense and struggle with spacing in their current starting lineup.
A Familiar Role for Westbrook
– Westbrook is no stranger to being a reserve player, having done so in 49 games for the Los Angeles Lakers last season before being traded to, and then bought out by the Utah Jazz.
– This marked Westbrook’s first run of games as a reserve player since his rookie season with the Oklahoma City Thunder in 2008-09.
A Strategic Move for Clippers’ Future
This shift in dynamic might just be what the Clippers need to regain their lost momentum. Only time will tell if this strategic move by Westbrook helps revive the team’s performance.
