Plays GREAT when given the reigns to a team. THE alpha dog. All things run through you. You get your stats and the team does decent.
Gets traded to a "team" where you're no longer the alpha and you struggle to become part of that team. You're not the one making the decisions anymore... You're trying to fit in.
Am I the only one who thinks that? Just look at the All Star games. Everyone has fun and can mesh well together. Luka is always lost. Not his style and he can't control the pace. You kinda see it with Mavericks when Kyrie runs some plays. Luka just doesn't look comfortable.
Am I the only one who sees it?

To be fair to Westbrook though, he's been to multiple conference finals and a NBA Finals as the #2 to Durant so he's proven he can be a valuable asset as a #2 in the past. That time is long gone now obviously, but they were championship contenders until KD left
