Why not just wait until this upcoming season finishes? I mean, they're both healthy this so let them play and then go from there.

Then again this thready was probably created just to be bumped several times during the season :yawn:

I pray for the sake of great basketball that both stay healthy all season long and play to their maximum potential :yes:

This is one of those "optical illusion" questions.

I say that because the question makes you automatically focus on their freakish athletic ability. You look at both of these players when they are 100% and it's pretty damn scary. It's a question that seems like a long debate is needed. But it isn't.>

Regardless of health...we are taking about Basketball I.Q. And when factoring that in, it isn't even close, Rose isn't making a bad decision w/ 10 seconds left. Westbrook...:youngsabo:

D.Rose isn't Chris Paul level I.Q but, I trust the ball in his hands win or lose.

Anybody picking Westbrook over Rose is a damn fool. Rose is far more skilled, a better decision maker, and not determined to take the spotlight from his superstar teammate at every opportunity.

When's the last time you saw Westbrook shoot a floater? That's a rhetorical question. You've NEVER seen Westbrook shoot a floater because he doesn't have one in his repertoire. That's right, a six year pro who's been to the finals doesn't have a floater in his game and he still jacks up crazy 3's even though he's barely shooting 30% from behind the line

If Russ had his own team he would put up prime Iverson field goal percentage.

We already know what D. Rose would do if he had his own team :sas2:
