Auch wenn ich das nicht als Hauptproblem ansehe, finde ich es sehr gut, dass es endlich mal öffentlichkeitswirksam angesprochen wird. Vielleicht kann man Russ ja darüber dazu bringen, anständig zu verteidigen, denn die phsikalischen Voraussetzungen hat er allemal und im College war er ja auch ein Verteidigungsspezialist.

With reporters, it's no surprise he completely ignored talk of those late-game mistakes. That's how Westbrook deals with the media.
But behind the scenes, does Westbrook show the same lack of accountability?
“He's coachable,” Collison insisted. “He understands it.”
In film sessions, can Donovan get on him?
“Film doesn't lie. Things that happened on the court happened,” Donovan said. “It's my job to point them out…I try to be very truthful, very honest and very direct…Russell's always been great in terms of those guys always want to be coached and told where they can improve.”
Westbrook can terrorize opponents on defense. Twice this series, just the threat of his strength and speed combo has spooked Dirk into a couple fumbles on would-be post-ups.
But he's only good when he's locked in, which he wasn't down the stretch on Monday night. The Thunder doesn't need him to publicly own up to that. But OKC does need him to correct it.
“He knows he can be better,” Collison said. “I'm confident he's gonna come out and be really good on that end in Game 3…He sees mistakes he made and I guarantee you it'll be a priority for him in the next one. Because he knows how important it is.”
