well that tard said if westbrook had good 3 point shooters he'd average 15 assists, the reality is he had a ton of awesome 3 point shooters last year. Durant,Ibaka,Waiters,Morrow are all very good 3 point shooters as evidence by their stats being around 40% this year, yet last year westbrick shot 29% from 3 point land and of course he shot more 3's per game than all those guys but durant.....facts are facts but go on with your narrative

He also was in the WCF while the Rockets were at home last year.

And the Rockets were in the WCF while the Thunder were at home the year before that. What's your point?

The point is westbrook was there bc of Durant,Waiters,Ibaka and now on his own he's useless unlike James Harden who took a bunch of pelicans castaways and turned them into contenders

lol wut??? So harden goes down for the year and Eric Gordon leads us to 55 wins and leads the league in assists? Lol ok

Of course not, but look no further than the on/off stats to show that his overriding point was correct.

My vote is for Goatbrook. frick that bearded flipper. Westbrook has done more with less talent around him. For fricks sake the dude almost averages a triple double.

Nobody thought Harden had more talent around him going into th season. Check anybody's player rankings heading into into the season.

So we're using player rankings as a legit source? Do we really want to go that route?

So we were wrong, clearly. There's no argument to say that OKC's cast is as good as HOU's. None.

Yep. Once these guys play with James it's all
Of a sudden apparent to everyone how much talent they have. Bc James brings it out of him. And he gets the credit for that.

Is anybody out there saying oladipo looks better this year than he did in Orlando? Nope sure don't. Westbrook don't know how to make his teammates better.

Or maybe an MVP player is improving a whole roster.

Well we know the role James had in getting these acquisitions to Houston. So A LOTTA people want James the player to be punished by James the GM. Which is ludicrous.

"oh you got too many good players to come play with you on your squad, you can no longer be MVP. Shoulda added bad fits you flopper Hehe"

Gtfo. Beard, MVP!

MVP!!

MVP!!!

While he's not on the court?

Let's not get carried away here...

You think it's Harden's leadership while he's not even playing and not, oh I don't know, D'antoni and his system?


And again, are we using player rankings or not?

Amare was a superstar and would have continued to be if he wasn't made of glass. And you just gonna ignore D'Antoni on LA and NY. The fact is that D'Antoni is a great coach with the right players. And the MVP James Harden is the perfect player.

I'm almost 100% sure I've seen Boom say that Harden's presence alone causes players to improve.
