Also this new generation criminally under estimates john Stockton. I guess cause hes white



yea. Honestly I want a guy like Stockton as my PG on an all star team like this, not Russell Westbrook. Guys like Westbrook and Harden will shoot you out of games. They don't know their roles

you want guys like CP3 or Curry who can play within themselves, and are just as good of scorers than the 2 listed above. There's a reason Coach K gave CP3 all the minutes at PG on team USA

Remember the uproar that Kidd caused in 08 on this board?

Kidd is undefeated in international play and this entire board stated he should not have started or been on the team. It was comical at times. You cant roll out an all star team and win games. Team USA in almost every sport has learned that lesson.

Much like the Wilson Flynn arguments in the preseason.

Which is why I mentioned them as my PG's way back on like page 2 of this thread.

I actually listed Westbrook as a possibility at the 2.

Russ is underrated as a distributor though. He has been absolutely deadly in the pick and roll this year.

Why are you comparing Harden and Westbrook? Harden does not shoot his team out of games. He has one of the highest TS% in the league and is a very efficient scorer.

Westbrook is not a very efficient scorer and takes way more shots than Harden.

Russ is taking 23.1 fga per 36 compared to 17.6 for Harden.

17.6 would be the 2nd lowest amount of FG's taken in Westbrook's career, whereas it's the highest for Harden.
