Well that means Spurs have more talent right? And that means his post was moot.

Not NBA circles, just on Google. But not everyone's Google, just Boom's.

It's current as of now. And current as of today. Go ahead and place your bet on Westbrook if the odds are so off you just had to comment on them not being updated every second.

But while the payout is 6.5X the actual odds likelihood of winning is about 2.5X.

Ok I will rephrase.

The same bet on both players yields 6.5x more $ for Russell.

How often does your Patty Power update its odds?

My bad bro. I just used 1+1=2 logic to determine that "no one calls him James, James = Harden," and your NBA insider background meant that it was well known in NBA circles that James = Harden, not LeBron.

And yet you argue OKC has more talent than HOU(think ESPN rankings)

If "no one" calls him James, wouldn't that mean NBA circles don't call him James?

Simmons said he was voting Westbrook 4th?

He tweeted this earlier "MY MVP VOTE IS STILL AVAILABLE THANK YOU FOR ASKING RUSSELL WESTBROOK"

Because HOU has more talent than OKC, based on the logic in your post you just made re: on/off.

You can say HOU has more if you want. I don't care. The voters don't either. The talent gap isn't wide enough to make up for the difference in records.
