Considering the fact he had quite a few hockey assists (as he does every game), it's not really laughable. What Westbrook is doing is historically great, but he has the opportunity to get a high # of assists because the ball works in and out directly from him - Curry's assist numbers don't begin to illustrate how many shots he creates for his team - because of how the ball swings around. Let's not forget that Curry put up 24 ppg and 8.5 assists a game in Jackson's ISO-dominant/minimal ball-movement offense a few years ago.

I realize that Westbrook has the advantage of being allowed to be more ball dominant, which is also why him only having 2 turnovers tonight is equally impressive. I'm not pretending like Curry's efficient shooting night isn't impressive, but Westbrook's statline hasn't been replicated in the last 33+ years breh.

...and it really is depressing because prime Russ has turned into some sort of bizzaro LeBron/Kidd combo guard and is doing some insanely impressive stuff.

Dude is at 16/8/11 tonight and its only the first half. :why:

Last year, Durant goes down so he puts the team on his back, busts his ass, puts up 28/7/9 and wins the scoring title. Post AS break he goes off for 31/9/10. He almost averaged a triple double for half his played games. :bryan:

And this year, we're talking 24/7/10 and now its even easier now that Durant is back. Kidd was pretty much the only small guard I know that could pass and board that these levels but he's nowhere near the scorer Russ is.

But what really gets me, and really Curry as well...he's putting up these numbers in 35-37 minutes worth of game time. On a per minute basis, this dude is literally a human version of the Tazmainian Devil. Guys like AI, Kobe, Bron, Jordan were all in game for 38-43 minutes consistently in their primes.

Anyway, I thought I'd just share my thoughts on Sab. I hope he gets his ring but the Warriors looking to be an all-time lineup right now.:francis:

1000% co-sign. If someone told me Sabo was the best guard in the league I wouldn't even be mad at em. It's like he plays like LeBron but has that vicious mean streak that young Kobe played with.

Why can't you fukk boys just enjoy greatness from two dope players who had 2 dope performances tonight. These binaries kill me.

Lol.
I can. Just wanted to bring some attention to Russ' season. He's playing at an all-time level and its under the radar. Can't wait for the game coming up.

I think that's only the case if you don't watch games and just rely on major sports websites/social media for updates. All the hype is currently around the Warriors and Steph obviously. Folks are sleeping on how well the Spurs are playing, especially during the undefeated Warriors streak. :manny:

Nobody was sleeping on the spurs, their game against us was the biggest in regular season history(:mjlol:) and we blew them out :dahell:
Literally all of the warrior haters were touting the spurs as our conquerors and saying how we haven't played them.

This has nothing to do with haters or anything like that. If the Warriors were not the best team in the league right now, there would be more spotlight on how well the Spurs are playing. No one is discrediting the Warriors...
