Episode 25: The end of Russ and the Thunder - a podcast by SB Nation NBA podcast

Russell Westbrook and the Thunder were bounced in five games by James Harden and the Houston Rockets. Man, that’s a loaded sentence.

Everything about the season of Russ and Harden was condensed into those five games. The Rockets were clearly superior and had far more depth. Harden was excellent for the most part, but other Rockets had moments of glory. OKC was thin and too dependent on Russ, who may have tried to do too much.

We get into all that on this week’s Drive & Kick along with Warriors talk, the carnage that is the Clips-Jazz series, and the Cavs' inevitability.
