Shootin' (How Russell Westbrook keeps provin' to boyz why he isn't the league MVP)

"Hey dawg, just let that keep shootin' bruh!"

Michel de Montaigne, the 16^th century French philosopher, once said, “The value of life lies not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them…Whether you find satisfaction in life depends not on your tale of years, but on your will.” Aristotle gave it to us like this, “The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival.” Then Albert Einstein shut the joint down when he said, “Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value.”

Well playas…the Oklahoma City Thunder came through Indiana on Sunday night with Young Russ drivin’ the bus lookin’ to become a man of success rather than bein’ a man of value. Ole boy scored 54 points in a 116-104 loss tryin’ to become the league’s MVP instead of tryin’ to make his TEAM better.

Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1^st! Young Russ took 43 shots to score the 54 points playa. So on the surface the headline looks amazin’ but the 54 points doesn’t help his team get into the freakin’ playoffs nor does it help them when the game!

While he’s out there jackin’ up shots all night the Pacers are keepin’ the other four cats in check. He can’t beat you by himself bruh! So let him keep shootin’! Everybody and their momma’s momma keep screamin’ that ole boy is clearly the MVP because he’s leadin’ the league in scorin’ etc. but none of these duns are lookin’ at what he’s doin’ to his team. They probably won’t make the playoffs and boyz are lookin’ at him sideways because he’s takin’ every shot down the floor. That’s not the MOST VALUABLE PLAYER!!! That’s bein’ Carmelo with more athleticism! He just plays better defense.

"You can really shot bruh! I'm just sayin'!"

The Most Valuable Player doesn’t go out and pick up his 16^th Technical Foul knowin’ he’ll probably have to sit out of the second half of a back to back tonight in Portland when they are just outside of the playoff picture tied at 8^th behind New Orleans. Scorin’ points doesn’t make you the MVP! Scorin’ points makes you the scorin’ leader bruh!

The Pacers knew that one dun couldn’t walk into the buildin’ and rob the joint all by himself so they played the game that needed to be played to win. Boyz contributed on both ends of the floor and they played team basketball. CJ Miles hit ‘em off with 30 points and 10 rebounds, George Hill was nice with 19 points all while throwin’ 7 dimes. “Skittles and Lemonheads” posted up 17 points and 10 boards and David West got at these boyz for 13 solids! TEAM basketball wins games playa not some dun jackin’ up shots all night.

As a result on winnin’ its fifth straight game the Pacers are still in the hunt for the 8^th seed in the East with two games left! They’ve got to win out with hopes that Brooklyn wets the bed at least once because the Nets hold the tie breaker after goin’ 2-1 against the Pacers this year. It’s all hands on deck now playa. I know boyz are glad that they don’t have a dun like Young Russ on their team because they would be fightin’ in that locker room if a boy took 43 shots in a loss. Stop me when I start lyin’!
