Also, is he even a PG? God damn the hype is getting out of control for Russell. I know one thing... with the quality of the position in this league, he won't be defending the opposing PG on a regular basis.

[KG215]

They tied for 8th in a loaded conference despite Durant missing 55 games and Ibaka missing 16 games. Westbrook also missed 15 games and OKC got off to a 3-12 start before he returned from injury. That was hardly Westbrook's fault and obviously he had been healthy for just about 5-7 more games Westbrook would've led OKC to the playoffs despite not having the second best player in the world and reigning MVP for 2/3rds of the season.

Yes, technically Westbrook didn't lead OKC to the playoffs but it wasn't because he wasn't good enough. Anyone that actually believes that and pushes that bullshit narrative is a moron. Replace Westbrook with Rose this season, keep everything else the same (the onslaught of injuries OKC suffered this year) and the Thunder don't even come close to sniffing the playoffs. Instead of 45-37 they go something like 35-47 and are picking a few spots higher in the draft.

[KG215]

not at all, rose has outplayed kyrie and wall this season.
Outplaying them a game or two here and there doesn't mean anything. Kyrie and Wall had superior seasons. They were better than Rose this year and it isn't even really debatable.

Kyrie: 22-5-3-2 on 47/42/86 shooting, 58% TS, 22 PER, 3.7 VORP, and .183 WS/48

Wall: 18-10-5-2 on 45/30/79 shooting, 52% TS, 20 PER, 3.9 VORP, and .132 WS/48

Rose: 18-5-3-1 on 41/28/81 shooting, 49% TS, 16 PER, 0.3 VORP, .038 WS/48


The numbers don't lie. Both Kyrie and Wall were pretty clearly better than Rose this year and, going forward, almost every GMs would probably take either as their team's starting PG ahead of Rose.

Ofcourse the numbers lie. Kyrie and wall tried really hard this season and played at their peak. Rose came back from a three year hiatus and took his time throughout the season. Technically they played better, dorsnt mean they are better players than rose, especially when rose did outplay them to prove a point when they went head to head. Rose even locked down and outdid curry, and carried the bulls to beat gs. I guess that doesnt mean anything.

ether

and btw, if you swapped rose and westbrook, okc's record would be something like 20-62 while the bulls win the championship comfortably.

Derrick rose isnt even a top 15 point guard this season

I would legit take dudes like conley, lillard, lowry over that crippled no-defence chucker

Replace CP3 and Curry.
Clips get bounced in the first round by the Spurs. Warriors still win the Finals with CP3.
They're are about equal on offense but CP3 is an elite defender while Curry is average, good at best.
Lakers fans need to quit hating on CP3 and Dwight just because it didn't work out. You're like the annoying best friend of the girl that got dumped.

:facepalm

We're talking about the top 5 point guards in the league right now. Until proven otherwise, you simply can't say with any confidence Rose is ever going to return to his 2011 form. And the whole right now part also means you can't pick and choose a few games where he looked good, because it doesn't erase the fact that he wasn't better than Curry, CP3, Westbrook, Wall, Irving, Conley, and probably a handful of other PGs this past season. If/when he ever returns to anything close to his 2011 form, then sure, but until then he's probably a fringe top 10 PG at best.

[TheCorporation]

I think #4 and #5 are a lock @ Irving & Wall

1.
2.
3.
4. Irving
5 Wall

The top three is the hard part: Curry, CP3, Goatbrook

Curry is easily the best shooter of the bunch, led his team to 67-wins and was the MVP of the league.

CP3 has been known as the best PG in the league for years now, so the question to me is has Westbrook or Curry passed him?

Westbrook put up monster stats in OKC while KD was hurt and nearly led his injury riddled team to the playoffs.

Let's look at what they did this year:

Chris Paul: 19-10-5, 49% FG, 40% 3P, 2 spg, 2.3 topg
Steph Curry: 24-8-4, 49% FG, 44% 3p, 2 spg, 3.1 topg
Goatbrook: 28-9-7, 43% FG, 30% 3P, 2 spg, 4.4 topg

I know it depends on what your "team needs" sometimes. It's tough, but I don't think Westbrook can be #1 only because while he did win the scoring title, he is NOT a good 3-point shooter, especially not compared to CP3 & Curry. He also committed the most turn overs per game by far (of the three).

I am inclined to go:

CP3
Westbrook
Curry

Curry is the MVP but this is literally his breakthrough year so I'm not quick to judge him so highly whereas CP3 has been producing at a high level for a while. If Curry puts up another MVP caliber season @

24-8-5 with 50% FG and 45% 3P again then in my mind he has passed CP3. I remember when Paul George had something of a breakthrough and people were propping him up so much that some said he was the best small forward in the league. Let's give Curry one more season to pass CP3.
