And yet the Rockets have a much better record than the Thunder. Harden is a much more efficient scorer. His true shooting percentage is 17th in the NBA. Westbrook's is 166th in the NBA. 

Not to mention that Harden's great games much more often translate to team success. Russell Westbrook can become a chucker in losses. Helps his stats, but these stats right here don't lie. 

Team records when each player scores 35+ 

Harden: 15-1 
Westbrook: 5-8 

Team records when scoring 30+ 

Harden: 28-5 
Westbrook: 15-9 

Basically, it's absurd to use Westbrook averaging .07 more points per game (in 14 fewer games) against Harden since Harden's high scoring is clearly much more valuable to his team.



A lesson on how to squash a debate. Have an upvote, sir.
