Frankly I'm not sold on Westbrook being a top 75 player

lol nice

wade was better, which is why it was a robbery when Lebron's collusions stole organic ring from KD in 2012 and other guys after that

Westbrook has better stats!

2011-14 Westbrook was definitely better than 2011-14 Wade, that's for sure.
Current Westbrook isn't better than... well, probably current Wade. :oldlol:

Better than Wade in 2011 and 2012? Are you on meth?

2011-12 Westbrook (all-NBA 2nd team) was slightly better than 2011-12 Wade (all-NBA 3rd team).
And in 2012-13, he was clearly better than the 15.9 playoff ppg Wade.

To say otherwise makes about as much sense as to say that 2008-09 Shaq was better than 2008-09 Dwight Howard.

And I'm sure he'll end up passing someone like Larry Bird too( maybe he already has, too lazy to look it up). Sooooo......not a great point.

You guys set yourself up for this always downplaying Wade over the years. (despite being supposed heat fans)

I think the point went sailing over your head in that scoring more career points doesnt make anyone the better or best scorer.

Absolute peak for peak this is close.

But it’s Wade, slightly on both ends. And then considering the BBIQ gap which makes WB a liability in some playoff situations, it becomes more obviously Wade.

But if you’re an opposing team/coach, on a random NBA night, 27 year old Westbrook and Wade are gonna **** you up on the same level, in the same ways.

You don’t take Westbrook over Wade, but H2H, statistically, stylistically etc it’s a wash. If Westbrook had even average BBIQ just to not get baited and schemed on in the PS, it’s a toss up for me. Meaning their RS levels are a wash and their normal levels of play are a wash. Maybe Wade by a hair. You just can’t trust WB.

He was not. They were kind of close as far as how they could impact a full game or season but Wade was far more reliable in big possessions.

LMAO!!! Come on now! I'm a defender of Russ's career in general. Because we can't take away what he has accomplished. BUT Wade is ARGUABLY the best 6'4 and under player EVER peak wise! Better than West, Steph, Isiah, AI, Russ, GP, Tiny etc. Because he's THE ONE who can match up to the Kobes, MJs, Drexlers, TMacs on an athletic level. And in terms scoring-passing-rebounding-defense as a package, He's RIGHT AT THE TOP with MJ, Kobe, and West among the SG's. Westbrook at his best wasn't on that level. Wasn't efficient enough, isn't able to adapt his game like D Wade offensively, and isn't the defender Wade was. Jus sayin, Wade was on another level. He's on the Mt. Rushmore with MJ, Kobe, and Bron when it comes to combing scoring, passing, rebounding, defense, and freak athletic ability among the perimeter guys! That's elite ass company!

Jesus H. Christ. What do you think 'not a great point' at the end of the sentence was supposed to mean? In other words, I'm saying Westbrook ending up with more points than Larry Bird doesnt mean hes a better scorer. But I'm sure you'll say I articulated that wrong, instead of going back, reading who I responded to, read my comment again, and then realize the point you think you're enlightening me about is actually what I was saying. Or do you really think I believe Russell Westbrook is a better scorer than Larry Bird on account of totals?? Or are you saying the other poster I replied to was being sarcastic and I didnt pick up on it? Who the F knows on this site? :confusedshrug:

Not you too, you're better than that. You guys really saw my post, saw the 'soooo not a great point', and thought I'm actually making the case that Westbrook having more points than Bird= better scorer? Is your sarcasm meter busted or did I really not express myself clearly enough? Or was the poster I replied to being sarcastic and MY sarcasm meter is the one busted? I can never tell with some posters.

EDIT: Ok, now I'm going back and rereading from the beginning. I guessing this is supposed to be a gotcha for people saying Lebrong passing MJ in scoring means hes a better scorer or whatever. Welp....

Don't take the Lords name in vain, son.

This thread is obviously a reciprocation of the many page long thread about LeBron being the all time scoring leader where a lot of you guys were saying he will be GOAT scorer because of a longevity total.

Westbrick being ahead of Wade in the same manner only reaffirms that notion is bogus. I hope you have some clarity now.

That was my reply to RogueBorg two posts up:

I got it. On this board it's not unusual for a take like OPs and to be dead serious about it. I missed the sarcasm the first time around, sue me. :confusedshrug:

Wade easily I think he has a better peak than Kobe imo

However Westbrook is starting to get underrated based off how bad he's been the past couple of seasons, I would take Peak Westbrook over both MVP Rose and MVP Iverson

This thread was just a weak trolling attempt. Point totals dont take into account efficiency which Lebron has and Westbrook doesn't.

Wizards fans liked him. He would makes some dumb turnovers and take bad shots but his intensity allowed us to win games we wouldn't have won ordinarily. His intensity rubbed off on the other guys.

Terrible fit in LA.

Since extra assist and rebounds with less winning appears to be metric, then westbrook has to be light years ahead of wade

Agreed. Wade isn't even close to being in Wesbrook's league. Disrespectful to even put them in the same sentence tbh.
