Washington Wizards players celebrate with Russell Westbrook in the locker room (from the Wizards' Twitter)

Washington is optimistic again.

The big 124: 132 win tonight (Monday through Tuesday) over Indiana, which was the team's second in a row, once again illustrated Russell Westbrook's tremendous abilities at its peak: the veteran quarterback took the reins in the absence of the injured Bill and recorded an unprecedented 35-point, 14-point stat line Rebounds and no less than 21 assists, which swept the Wizards to an important home win.



Westbrook made history when he became the first in NBA history to reach a triple-double with at least 35 points and 20 assists, in addition to reaching 16 triple-doubles in Washington uniform - a club record.

Westbrook is now just 20 triple-doubles away from the all-time triple-double record held by Oscar Robertson.



"To tell the truth, it's pretty amazing," admitted Westbrook, who claimed he made no special effort to reach the triple doubles, or Oscar Robertson's record.

"I do not know ... I just want to get to the playoffs. If the record comes this year, it will come. And if not, then no. It is not my top priority," he said.

Washington coach Scott Brooks praised him and said, "You can define him in one word - winner. I've been in this league for 30 years, and I tell you, this man does things I've never seen. The game he gave today was crazy, it's extraordinary."



Brooks continued: "He's something special. Of course he's not perfect, but all the 'geniuses' who focus on the things he does less well do him an injustice. He does amazing things, and sometimes there is a feeling that people do not understand it, or do not want to understand the It's. Maybe it's because he does not kiss anyone's ass. He does nothing to get approval from the media, but the things he does are unprecedented. His statistics are amazing, but his contribution is far beyond statistics. He will be remembered as one of the greatest coordinators in history, and that is Great thing because I'm old enough to remember how he was said not to be a coordinator, that he should be a shooting guard, that his ceiling is to become the sixth player of the season ... "



Bradley Bill also tweeted compliments to Westbrook and wrote:" Monster! He was ridiculous tonight! ".

Roy Hachimura added: "When I was growing up as a teenager, I admired him. Now I play with him, and that's pretty amazing, because just a few years ago he was my role model."

Danny Abdia also recorded a positive game, especially in the second half.

After a first half without points, the Israeli rookie scored 12 (4 of 6 from the field, 2 of 2 from the penalty spot), was signed on some crucial moves in the last quarter including the basket that closed out interest, and also added 8 rebounds.

"Danny Abdia has found his place and recorded a solid game," complimented the Wizards Bullets Forever blog, where they also complimented Abdia's defense in money time.

"Let's enjoy the development we saw today from our future players, Hachimura and Abdia."



Abdia seems to be getting a close “escort” from Westbrook, who has a lot to guide and brief him on in the final minutes.

In the end, it worked, and the Israeli rookie, who has played little this season in the last quarters, got on stage and returned with good ability.

"He helps our young guys become professionals, he keeps teaching them new things. With his help, they will become good players for many, many years," Scott Brooks explains of the Westbrook effect on young Washington, "they need veteran players to guide them. I've seen it happen before - when you're a Rocky and have to play alongside veteran players with a lousy personality, it's going to hurt you. Danny, Roy, even Thomas Bryant and other players, will see him work hard every day, never take his foot off the gas, and take it. "With them on. He shows them the right way to do things. I'm very happy he's helping our young people along the way."

Brooks even complimented Abdia on an important three-pointer that he scored five minutes before the end, which interrupted Indiana's momentum.

"It was a big shot, we needed it. It came at just the right time and left our hope alive," he said.
