Westbrook related meme in Chinese 'reddit' Hupu（虎扑）
At the beginning of the season, Westbrook was often mocked by James and Harden fans on Chinese forums like Hupu, with the term "give him full shooting rights" being used sarcastically. They implied that Westbrook, relying on his "passion" (a term used ironically), would play poorly if he started or had too many shots. However, as the season progressed, Westbrook improved his performance, and the phrase "give him full shooting rights" gradually turned into a positive expression, becoming a popular catchphrase on Chinese basketball forums.
