Even if Domantas Sabonis is the hero of the night in Sacramento with his game-winning tap against the Jazzthe group suggested to Russell Westbrook to start the now traditional “Light The Beam”. Author of 7 points for his first at home, the 2017 MVP is never the last when it comes to communicating with the public.
“It was good, really good. I’ve been waiting for this moment since I got here, so it’s nice to finally do it. And above all, it’s always good to get the first win of the season. A good start” he reacted.
On my couch a week ago…
As for the game, there is still a lot to do, and Westbrook reminds that there is no preseason in his legs and that every match allows him to catch up with his teammates and opponents.
“It’s funny because I was just talking about it with my wife. Last Saturday I was quiet at home, I didn’t play. I haven’t played 5v5 since…last year, I think!” he answers. “So this is only my second real full match. But I’m in good shape. The rhythm will come, I’m not worried about it at all. I already feel better than in the first match.”
To help him in his integration, there is Malik Monk. They met at the Lakers, and here they are ready to be the leaders of the “second unit”. Leek is a scorer, he has scored big goals before. My role is to make his life easier: find him unmarked, take shots for him. He had a big third quarter tonight and it was a key moment in the game for us.
