Tobe fans told me Westbrook has killer instinct. I guess it's been showing.

But in order for that to happen they're have to find a legit started at lead guard and they just don't have that right now. Have they ever had a starting caliber point guard? I honestly don't remember

If I'm Sam Presti Im putting my name in the hat to sign Nic Batum this offseason. He's a starting 2 guard that's better than any other replacement 2 guard they've had since Harden. He can initiate offense while Russ is on or off the floor. Can shoot it from deep. Plays defense. He would fit like a glove in OKC. Idk if they had the money to offer him or if he would leave Charlotte though

They had reggie Jackson and they blew it :snoop:

yall mustve not played basketball in real life. If you have someone on the team that is clearly a beast (KD) but is passive and wont take off, its irritating and get that fukk it ill do it myself attitude. Ideally, Westbrook should be passing KD the ball and get out the way so KD can eat, but 75% of the time, KD dishes it back off to some 3-4th option who ends up giving it back to Westbrook and then its on Westbrook to try to get a bucket. Yall cant keep giving KD a pass for being beta.

Nah. He's a clear superstar, generates offense like few others ever have at the position. Yeah he's got his flaws but so does everyone else and they are massively outweighed by his positive traits

Nobody's really arguing him over LeBron or Curry so he's not overrated, has a case over everyone else this season

Westbrook reminds be of Jamal Crawford. Of course Westbrook is the better player by far but what I mean is that there's no different variations to their game imo. They're chucking shots up whether they're up 20, down 20, 1st quarter, 2 quarter, 3rd & 4th quarters. No "I didn't shoot this quarter because I had two of my teammates hot and fed them for 5 assists", or "this game I'm going to D-up and wear down the old man Tony Parker", etc.. He just plays one type of game straight though all the time. At times its genius and at times its cringeworthy. But at the same time I don't know how much of this falls on coaching and I know Durant and Westbrook don't trust their teammates so:francis:

Between Adam's and Roberson they took 5 shots. They should never be on the floor together. It allows the Spurs to play 5 on 3 because they know these 2 will not shoot

Lol @ people still getting mad at Durant for "deferring" or not calling for the ball


You know you cant just call for a pass every possession, its not MyPlayer. Westbrook disrupts the offense and shoots early in the shotclock before durant can even work off the dribble.

Youre expecting him to iso every possession and dribble but thats not his game just a part of it.

Nikka need to slow down sometimes. You can't play at 100 mph all fukkin game. Plus his d is overrated. Shot selection is trash as well. He need to post up more, and polish up that midrange game.

With that said he still a beast, but will never win shyt playing like that. I still take a prime/healthy Rose>>>Russ
