rose vs westbrook (revisited)

[YBE]

he put them on his back but who was gonna give us scoring even close to Durant no1 you couldn't run a whole squad a Westbrook tonight like they did rose you missing the context to this flawed "debate".

Only facts in this thread....when the Bulls was getting shut down, Rose barely shot 35%. When the Thunder was getting shut down, Russ dropped 43 on 62%.

off 1 game hes better not much solid analysis there

Eh, Russ' midrange is like where Rose's was his second year.

Rose's midrange regressed last year as he focused more on 3s.

Kind of true, but...

and you cant judge this year because he barely played props to sabo tho

This is LITERALLY what I was thinking when I read that.

Westbrook playing in the finals...Rose ass got injured in the 1st round and who knows when he'll be back. As of right now...

Westbrook>>Rose

 

[Loose]

I think the point he really missing is how russ is defending wade can rose defend wade the entire game and remain efficient on offense?

 

[GreatestLaker]

I've been saying this forever.

Westbrook and Rose are the same fukking player.

 

[HacksawJimThuggin]

IMO, the only thing Rose does better than Westbrook is finish around the basket, he's more controlled in the air... but aside from that, Westbrook is basically better at everything else

I agree with both you can't judge this year. But I'd have to give it to Russ AS OF NOW because of that. Russ' midrange is deadly as fukk right now and I can't give an assessment of Rose's because he was hurt all year

Of course not. Westbrook is a much better defender than Rose. Of course Rose stans won't agree tho.

Yup. I'd give Rose the edge in ball handling and playmaking tho.

This is powerful posting! Russy is giving Wade fits, like legit stressing him on defense. That shyt is shocking as hell too, I thought Wade would be able to just muscle Russy, but it's just not happening.

Sidenote: NOBODY can stay in front of Russy in this series and that goes for Lebron too. He is eating nikkas food off the dribble!

Does Wade need to be guarded this year? He looked decent on the defensive end this game but he's been pretty damn bad for 2 rounds.

Assuming D.wade ever gets back to his normal, neither Rose or Westbrook can guard him.

Regardless, Westbrook is still a better defender than Rose. A much better one.

because Durant is out there in addition to the difference in defensive pressure he saw even tho wade was trash in that ECF >>> this wade.
