I mean he's not John Stockton so he can't play PG! He should average 2 points and 25 assists!! Trade him!!!

Something about Westbrook reminds me of Jannero Pargo

People have been hating this dude all season because they want Durant to shoot the ball 60 times a game.

No. People hate on this dude when he insists on taking the last jumpshot of the game. And he's not a good shooter. And he's playing next to one of the best shooters in the league.

i still can't believe the thunder didn't give durant the ball at the end of regulation, or with enough time to do anything in the second OT.

he's the best scorer in the league. Get him the fricking ball.

I like Russell Westbrook. i think he's as good as Derrick Rose. I think if you switched both players, the teams would essentially be the same within about 5 games of each other record wise.

But I can't abide by his late game decision making. And I can't abide by the best scorer in the NBA right now not touching the ball in key moments of pivotal playoff games.

That's supposed to be Durant's shot. The plays are designed for him.

But for some reason, it ends up going down to Westbrook taking a fallaway jumper. If he was going to bull his way to the basket and try to get fouled that's one thing. But that's not been what he's doing.

This criticism of Westbrook is merited.

GTFO


it's supported by all advanced metrics.
it's supported by a head to head comparison.
it's supported by the fact that Russell Westbrook got more playing time than Rose on Team USA last summer.

Derrick Rose is quicker and a better finisher. Westbrook is more powerful and a much better defender. Westbrook is an average shooter and above average passer. Rose is a below average shooter and an average passer.

All of you people got too blinded by the highlights of Derrick Rose this year. The Bulls won because of relentless team defense. Rose got the stats because he's the only decent scorer on the team.

You switch them. The difference is negligible.

That's not a fact and the only way to prove that is if it really happens.

Also, you are not taking into account what Durant does for Westbrook. And what Rose's team doesn't do for him on the offensive side.

Rose's defense is a lot better then Westbrook's too.

No one would want westbrook over rose.
