Per ESPN<\/a>, \u201cRight now, I\u2019m just running around,\u201d Westbrook said after the Rockets\u2019 117-109 loss that evened the series. \u201cI\u2019ve got to look at film and figure out how to be effective.\u201d<\/p>\nThe Rockets were outscored by 14 points in Westbrook\u2019s 33 minutes on Sunday, when he was the only Houston starter with a negative plus-minus.
\n\u201cHe\u2019s still working his way back,\u201d Rockets coach Mike D\u2019Antoni said. \u201cHe\u2019ll play with a great intensity. He\u2019ll always be aggressive. He needs to be aggressive. That\u2019s why he\u2019s Russell Westbrook, and that\u2019s fine. He\u2019ll work it out.
\n\u201cWe\u2019re not going to win anything without Russell. That\u2019s not even a question or whatever. He\u2019s going to work through it. He\u2019s fine. He\u2019s more upset than anybody. Hey, he\u2019s a great, great player. He\u2019ll be fine. Not worried about him.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
