GOATbrook best PG in the league.

[maybeshewill13]

Destroyed Chris Paul last game. Over the last 7 games is averaging something like 31 points on over 50% shooting (50% from 3 point land too), 7 assists. Not sure how many rebounds.. I don't know how to look up stats for a certain amount of games. Been slowly heating up all season now he's taking it to another level heading into the playoffs.

All hail GOATbrook :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

The dude is a machine he just does not fatigue and really has had CP3's number this year in the meetings. I'm not a big fan but you got to give respect where its due, dude went beast mode vs the Clippers.

He's playing great ball, making good decisions too.

Westbrook has always shot a good % he's not a chucker as some like to label him as. Because if they don't they admit how good he is.

[SillyRabbit]

What I love about Westbrook is he elevates his play during important games.

27-6-6 in the Finals against the Heat, and against the Clippers this year he's relished every moment of going head to head with CP3, getting the best of him every time. Guy doesn't back down from a challenge.

[bizil]

Westbrook we all know is a beast. Only problem is he's more of a SG or combo guard who can play the point very well. Give me a guy like CP3 who combines dominant passing AND scoring all in one. CP3 can get u a 30 point and 15-20 assist night WAYYYY more easier than Westbrook. Now if u think Westbrook is a better player than CP3 I can see that. But at PG, the most premium asset is running the show and dropping dimes first. If u happen to be a dominant scorer with that then of course u take that too. I can name SG's and SF's like Bron, Wade, Kobe, Harden, etc. who can run a team just as good or better than Westbrook. All four of those guys have more PG acumen than Westbrook. And Westbrook is a very athletic 6'4 who has enough size to play SG. Westbrook at SG could turn out to be a top 10 GOAT caliber SG over time. As of now, Westbrook at PG is still great, and can still be an HOFer at PG. But he can be EVEN MORE SUCCESSFUL at SG. The things he gets criticized for wouldn't be as big of a deal.

Harden has one of the worst TO rates in the league and worse then Westbrook's. Was last year too.

Harden disappeared in the finals.

Maybe OKC works, and works really really good, without a traditional PG. Maybe you don't need the traditional PG in the league any more. Maybe KD is about to win another scoring title despite his PG not being traditional. Maybe OKC is a title contender without a traditional PG.

All my maybe's are true. Your criticism is not.

OKC's offense >>>> LAC offense.

And OKC's offense has less offensive players. Hell, the OKC offense is Durant, Westbrook, some Ibaka, Martin off the bench and than CRAP. And yet, the OKC offense >>>>> LAC offense.

Funny, for how bad Westbrook HURTS the team, they sure have a great offense. Some of you act like if you put Jameer Nelson on the Thunder they'd avg 120 a game.

[upside24]

He cooked Kobe last night and when he is making the right decisions he is incredible. The speed of his first step and leaping ability makes him almost unguardable. Not to mention when his quick pull-up is on.

He is just relentless.

No, the biggest change that had the biggest impact was putting Thabo on Parker, and the Thunder role players finally stepped up and played well. Especially when the series went to OKC.

Harden outplayed Westbrook in the WCF, but that wasn't the biggest or only reason OKC won the series. And no one should have to remind you how badly Westbrook outplayed Harden in the Finals.

Russ is sick and Im not really knocking him. He's a great player as is. I just think he could be even better playing SG. It's no different than Wade coming in and playing as a PG his first season. Wade could be a great PG, but he's better at SG in my opinion. Same thing with AI too. If your greatest gift happens to be scoring and you are great at it, why not run the SG? I think Russ's scoring acumen is a bit better than his passing acumen.

What's the point of a PG taking up a spot on the roster that cannot do anything except raise a hand and pass to someone coming off a screen? Or just to throw the SG the ball after coming up court.

I don't see what a traditional PG would do to the team to make it better. The OKC offense is fantastic for years now. I mean, Russ is top 5 in assists, the OKC offense is fantastic. He just takes a lot of shots because he can get his shot, teams take away Durant as much as possible, and OKC has limited scoring options. I'm just not seeing how the offense could be much better unless you just made an all-star team.

RW might not be traditional, but he's certainly Top 5, and most likely Top 3 at his position in the league. And that's PG.

And for the record, AI avg'd A LOT more shots per game than RW ever has.

U R Missing the WHOLE POINT I MADE! I said Russ was a great player, but for me he sees the game more as a SG or combo guard who happens to be a great ball handler AND very good, hell even at times great passer. Guys like Big O, Magic, Isiah, Payton, Tiny, KJ, etc. racked up the points just as good or Russy AND are epic at passing-floor generalship. Russ as of now aint on that kind of level at PG. PG's are almost like QB's, often times u are just born with those instincts. U bring up Russ's assist numbers and yes they are very good. But watch Russ drop dimes and run a team in comparison to Paul, Rondo, Nash, etc. U can tell the difference over time between those guys and Russ in terms of floor generalship.

And by the way AI HAD TO PUT UP MORE SHOTS THAN RUSS! Look at who AI had to play with. He's not playing with a young legend at SF who could become at top 3 GOAT SF ever if he keeps it up. AI didn't play with a top 3 caliber SG currently in Harden. AI had to jack shots for his team to have a chance. Ya and by the way, give me peak AI over current Russ ANYDAY!!

There is a certain premium for passing the rock and dropping dimes at PG. Bottom line point blank. Westbrook is very good at those facets and the most dominant scoring PG in the L currently. So it's no secret he's a beast and great player. But at PG, u have guys who can put up big points BUT also have pure floor general instincts. If u know the game u know what the HELL I'm talking about. It can be ARGUED that Russ is a better player than CP3 for example. But my perfect PG are the ones like Magic, O, Isiah, Payton, Frazier, CP3, etc. Guys that are dominant passers AND scorers all in one. That's not a knock on Russ at all. Just saying u HAVE to keep in mind the premium facets of the point guard position. I've seen MANY GREAT SG's who could play the PG spot similar to Westrbook in terms of impact and even better. I'm talking:

MJ
West
Kobe
Wade
T Mac
Monroe
Maravich
AI
Moncrief
Drexler
Harden

What do all of these guys have in common? All are great scorers who are ALSO talented enough to slide over and assume PG duties. All of the guys I named have been known to do it. But all of these guys were such killer scoring mentality wise that their instinct at scoring likely exceeded their passing acumen. Even though they were still great passers. U have guys who are natural PG's in terms of their thinking who are still great scorers AND u have guys who are scorers first by nature who are still great passers and could the PG very effectively.

Harden did not outplay Westbrook in the Western Conference Finals. It was Sefolosha's defense on Parker along with Westbrook's passing that was the difference in the series. Harden had a great series as well but let's not rewrite history here.
