Russell Westbrook is the first member of the Los Angeles Lakers to admit there is a problem. LeBron James has stated that the team has no chemistry. So far, they haven’t used the word “disaster” to describe their season.
Skip Bayless recently received the ire of NBA fans and players after comments he made about LeBron. Bayless tastelessly invoked the name of Kobe Bryant when describing King James’ leadership of the Lakers. Bayless isn’t done tearing into L.A. just yet.
The controversial sports talk host slammed Russell Westbrook on today’s Undisputed. Bayless said Russ is a disaster for LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Skip criticized the Lakers for continuing to defend Westbrook after a string of bad games found him benched in Saturday’s overtime win.
“Russ is a disaster for LeBron and AD. Yet foolishly after the game, both LeBron and AD fed right back into “Russ has got to keep shooting.” You’re kidding me.”
Skip Bayless heavily criticized Westbrook’s free-throw shooting. He pointed out that Russ is only better than the teams’ two centers. It was a total verbal evisceration.
We’ll see if Russell Westbrook has any kind of response for Skip Bayless. It usually doesn’t go well when athletes do reply to the troll bait. Russ might want to just give Skip a pass on this one.
