You think Russell Westbrook is the most athletically gifted PG of all time?

I do not, I think Wall is a better pure athlete than Westbrook, but I also do not claim that Magic or any guard in that era is either.

But I am sure you know what Toni Kukoc was capable of and why he was considered so good.


I know that Toni Kukoc doesn't deserved to be mentioned when talking about talents on the level of KD, LBJ, Westbrook.

i lol at ppl who believe todays guards wouldnt shite on the players from 80s and 90s.

Hell, the players in the dream team era barely even lifted weights.

Now you are trying to have the dream team play a style of basketball that was not around in 1992.

You keep moving the goal posts.



I don't have too. But if you're going to add Spaniard's too the team, this whole thread is a joke anyway

Given my quote that you used in this post, let me ask you then, do you know how PER is calculated? honestly


You do realize turnover and FG are included in PER right?

I mean it is pretty obvious

Wall may be able to beat him in a sprint, but Russ is by far a better overall athlete.

Westbrook being the most athletic pg of all time is something that everyone should agree on.

i do. It doesn't take away the fact that he is an inefficient shooter from the field.


PER also takes into account just about every other stat across the board. Which no doubt puts him in elite company. But his abundance of missed shots still cost them games. It's fun to watch, but so was Allen Iverson.

In conclusion, his PER doesn't invalidate what I said about his FG.


for the record, Jordan shot 53%, and Lebron 50%, in the seasons mentioned in that tweet. Westbrook 43%. That's far far far off.

Of all the stupid things that have been said in this thread, adding a Spaniard is the deal breaker for you?

And there is a reason those 2 get argued about as the best to ever play the game.

when have I ever said anything like tis... Bron is way better than 3/4 of the league back in the 80.s and 90's ...There are other players that are just as good if not better... But for the purpose of this thread as a group the '92 dream team would eat todays players alive... There is not much else to say or debate about.. You and Prime Time are making fools of yourself... Mainly cause all you have are highlights to go on from '92.
