rose vs westbrook (revisited)

[GreatestLaker]

Rose is a very good player. Don't get me wrong, he is just not on Bron, Chris Paul's etc level. He is a Westbrook type player.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

A lot of terrible opinions from both sides

 

[Boutdatlife]

You cant make this thread when Rose been dealing with injuries and just had acl surgery.

....Westbrook is my dude and he is a fukking problem#fact


...but Rose don't got no Durant or Harden or anyone close. Either way they are both great players and we'll see them face off in the finals someday.



With all that being said Rondo>>>Westbrook/Rose

wait who does Rondo have?

lol rondo cant be categorized with them dudes hes a passer not a scorer

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

I don't think I've ever seen a player like Westbrook.He's quite possibly the fastest/quickest dude I've ever seen on a basketball court.


I have anxiety attacks watching this dude explode to the basket.That shyt is straight violent.It's nerve wrecking wondering how this dude is going to slow down.


That shyt scares me.You know that feeling you get when you're free falling....that's how it feels watching this guy on one of his forays to the basket.



I can't think of anybody to compare him to?

A lightning quick/ more explosive/better body control having Gary Payton?

A taller/faster version of Kevin Johnson?


I don't know



Rose reminds me of Stephon Marbury on steroids

*sigh*

Another reactionary thread. Westbrook is dope, but honestly I can't say he's better then rose. At best they are on the same level

 

[Brozay]

Its getting close.. but Rose's playmaking sets him a bit apart. I think Russ is a true SG.. dude is a beast though. Probably the best SG in the league.

 

[CHICAGO]

ROSE IS AN ALL WORLD PG.
THE TYPE OF nikka THAT WILL GIVE YOU 30 & 15.
WESTBROOK IS AN EXPLOSIVE SCORER.

[Poppa_Dock]

rose will never be the same

 

[Ohene]

I remember saying Westbrook is the 3rd best PG last year after Paul and Rose. nikkas laughed but exchange Rose for Deron maybe and that's pretty accurate

I'd like to see how Westbrook would deal with being double teamed, and having the entire game plan of the other team designed to stopping you, and not having the BEST PLAYER IN THE NBA on your team in Durant and another top 15 player in Harden.

How would he deal with the collapse of the defense when he drives in when he doesnt have an all star talent around him?.

Fact of the matter is, Derrick Rose deals with double teams, traps, and the 100% attention of the other team, and still is a top 5 player.

Stop being reactionary fans. smh

this is the shyt I always say. westbrook is never the #1 focal point of any opposing defense as long as he's playing with KD whereas rose stays getting double and triple teamed yet puts up just as good of numbers points wise and gets a lot more assist.
