You don't know that, Rondo can score when he is needed to (Check playoffs) and is a MUCH better defender than Westbrook, not only that he is a million times the playmaker.
I'm not saying Westbrook is CP3 or anything. Just saying the Thunder absolutely can win a title with Westbrook. His scoring mentality isn't going to hold them back and isn't what cost the team in the finals.
He's a good player and he plays with a lot of effort, those are good things.
The problems he has is that he's not a good pickn'roll player necause 1) he's not a 3 point threat and 2) low IQ for his position, and his overall passing ability/court vision is horrible, he often misses easy passes because he's hesitant and doesn't have creative vision in that part of the game.
Is he considered better than Deron Williams? I can't help but think OKC would be a better team with him.
man, biedrins doesn't even get run in this game. showed so much potential a few years ago...does that guy have like no confidence still? someone should trade for him and develop him. he's a double double guy waiting to happen

Just like you cant make the assumption we would have reached the finals with Rondo. There is a fact that is prevalent to us all though, OKC made the finals with WB last year, not Rondo.
