it needs to be said: Russell Westbrook will never win a ring in the NBA

[Bledswole]

don't get me wrong, I think durant is a soft coward too

but I believe durant would have won at least one ring by now if they kept harden and traded westbrook

at the end of the day, durant is the #1 guy...but westbrook thinks he's the #1 guy and refuses to accept his role as a sidekick; a team with that mentality cannot win a title no matter how talented they are

and when/if durant leaves, it's gonna be a rude awakening for westbrook

I disagree,Sabo literally is a "decision making attribute" away from single handedly winning NBA games on a consistent rate,he's already the best PG in the league,he's averaging 42,10,12 in his last 5 games for christ sakes 46,12,8 his last two if he ever is the main option on a team and just reeled back his aggressiveness far as scoring and just involved teammates a little more the sky is the limit for him,dude is a complete monster in every stretch of the word,but he still has those faults that make you scratch your head at times

I have a funny feeling that the Thunder may make deep run in the playoffs with Durant.

We havent even seen Durant with this new mob yet..lol

Da fukk...

I think he will as long as he and Durant stay together.

Can't wait for the Hawks to bow out of the playoffs

Besides that point . Westbrook can win a ring but they have to design a team based around his playing style.

And why would they do that when they have a superior player on the squad who's style the team should be based around?

If Durant weren't so passive then you wouldn't see Westbrook trying so hard to will his team. Give Westbrook his own team and a solid number 2 some Rebounders/defenders/spot up shooters and he should have a shot at a ring

Umm isn't that OKC to a T?

I agree with OP, Thunder need to trade him

That's like saying he's a few inches of height away. That poor decision making is a part of him and it's a big deal when it comes to winning games, especially in May and June. At the highest level that's what it comes down to...IQ and decision making. We are talking about a guy who saw nothing wrong with taking more shots than the best and most efficient scorer in the game.
