Westbrook's career per-36 stats are eye popping

[PejaTheSerbSnip]

Heck they're not that far off LeBrons....raw stats at least

22.2 5.5 (1.7 ORB) 7.5

25.0 6.5 (1.0 ORB) 6.3

now don't get me wrong, hes not really in LeBrons class as a player, doesn't shoot as efficienctly and isn't as good defensively....but damn that's surprising. Really fills up the stat sheet.

[J Shuttlesworth]

According to Mike and Mike, here are his stats the last 6 games

Shooting 41%, under 50% in every game
26% on threes
Effective FG% 43.7%, would rank sixth worst in NBA
Averaging 5 1/2 turnovers
OKC with Westbrook on floor -24, Westbrook off floor +36
Thunder are 1-3 against teams with winning records

Westbrooks raw stats are higher than Lebrons, what do you mean not far off?

I've been saying these things for a long time now and Westbrook stans would just flip out and say I'm trolling. Go check Westbrooks game log, always feasts off terrible teams and when he gets his vs a good team they lose.

2.9 less points, 1.0 less rebounds, 0.4 less blocks, and 0.7 more turnovers....buuut 1.2 more assists.

So just a little off. But that's just raw stats. Obviously LeBron is way more efficient, a better defender, and the fact that he was able to PLAY more minutes is a credit to him.

All I'm saying is Russ is putting up some gaudy stats.

There's no doubt that his stretch is overrated.

I'm sorry but 44% usage rate... It's just absolutely unacceptable unless you're scoring the ball efficiently. Their wins have been against the sixers (barely), the raptors (struggling) and the T-wolves. Those stats that Mike and Mike put up were before the Minnesota game, iirc

[Jacks3]

^yeah, except westbrook has a 58% TS since the beginning of feb, so he's been plenty efficient. the thunder have a +3.5 offense in that stretch, which would rank in the top five in the entire league. and they've gone like 13-5 since his run started. so yeah. you're wrong. there's nothing overrated about what he's doing. this is historic stuff.

I think you have the wrong stats sheet cause I have no idea how you are getting Lebron's raw stats being higher than Westbrooks.

His February is absurdly good.

But his streak of triple doubles (what was it 6 in 7 games?) is overrated.

Only overrated if you watch ESPN or even care about their dicksucking. Nobody gives a shit about those triple doubles on these forums, especially when they come in losses.

Considering there were a bunch of "Westbrook with another triple double" threads during the L's, I would disagree with you

I was much more impressed with Westbrooks triple doubles when I thought he was getting them naturally. They are well within his ability.

But if he's out there trying to get them at the start of the game? Meh. I guess I dont mind an assist or rebound here and there in the fourth quarter though.

[dubeta]

LeBron is better, but Westbrook is better than anyone else in the NBA

Unacceptable is holding the ball for the entire shot clock and then when you got nothing, get rid of it to wade or Kyrie with 4\5 seconds left.

Unacceptable is nowhere to been seen in the first halfs of the NBA finals and the statpad when the other team starting five is in the bench and the guy protecting the paint is Matt Bonner.

Westbrook is trying to win games. usage rate becomes meaningless when the guy hogging the ball\stat padding have a lower number because shoots less.

His usage rate is also eye-popping... borderline historic.

Usage rate isn't "meaningless" when comparing statistics. It shows you how many of his team's possessions it takes to get the numbers that he's accumulating. Westbrook is currently on a run that rivals any in the history of the league. The year Wilt averaged 50+ points for an entire season, he didn't use as many possessions per game to do it as WB is averaging this year.

How can that not be a part of the conversation? And, they've been OK since Durant went down. Not great, not terrible record-wise. So... it works some of the time. There is an argument that using a little less than freaking 40% of your team's possessions to help get other guys going would result in a better W-L record over this span of games.

That is a lot.
