Russell Westbrook joined the Los Angeles Clippers via the buyout market late in the 2022-23 season. The move was met with divided and strong opinions throughout the basketball world and Clippers fan base. What started out as a rocky beginning smoothed out before Paul George went down with a knee injury against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Ultimately, it would be the playoffs where Russ would be judged as far as wanting him back on the Clippers long term. Just how good was Russell Westbrook on the Clippers? Should he come back? Would the Clippers want him back? How realistic is it to get him back? In this episode, die hard Clipper fan and Host Darian Vaziri breaks down all three stages of Russell Westbrook's short career with the LA Clippers. The 5 game losing streak to start, the 4 game winning streak and end to the season, and then the playoffs. He also discusses wether or not he wants Russ back and how likely it is that he will be.
