Westbrook just posted a Perfect triple double

[surv2syn]

his defense is "ass" yet hes wayyyy ahead of harden in every defensive metric. nikkas just be talking to talk

"rhythm of the game" please explain this bs, sounds like some convoluted bs you made up in your small brained head.

his team is winning has only dropped 2 seeds possibly one without his old first option. hes done a great job "stat padding"

dont understand that either. it looks natural to me. I dont think people truly realize how elite of a level the NBA is. pick the worst scrub in the league right now and he is going to be a good player in any other setting/league. its hard enough to get triple doubles, but to "plan" them out is impossible.

MVP means nothing but if a dude doesn't win it while averaging a triple double.... no comment

its funny because there were better MVP seasons than DRose that didnt win, like Kobe and Wade. I was glad to see DRose win it...but when he started getting injured the Bulls were still a top team. can someone really make a case that DRose had a better season than what Russ is having? and Bron couldve won that year as well but they wanted to get some "new blood" as MVP.

Yeah cause you not bias at all lol

Im not. Westbrook is my favorite player in the league. Im tryna look at it objectively though.

 

[OneTimeforTheMind]

bet kawhi wins...the media voters love kawhi...he was 2nd in voting mvp one season while duncan was there...this is arguably his best season...imo it should be sabo but they love kawhi

If Westbrook wins MVP expect Player's Awards 2017

 

[gluvnast]

Against the 76ers? Foh why he ain't do that against GS and Curry?

Why ain't nobody done it to ANY TEAM ever before, to include those 76ers?

 

[STAN JONES]

"Perfect" on 6 of 6 shooting.
You're right. But come on.

It's not like he went 14 for 14.

Good lord yall nikkas some haters

This basically proves the point that Westbrook doesn't have to take 25 shots for the thunder to win basketball games.If Russell averaged something like 25p/12a/6r/2s/4t 45%/84%/36% and okc won 55 games,I would give him the mvp.Oklahoma would be a better team if he toned it down and made the right basketball decisions instead of forcing up low quality shots.

That proves nothing considering the Thunder be winning games regardless how many times he shoot while getting a triple double.

 

[gluvnast]

nikkas acting like the rockets got multiple all stars on the squad. The arguement about "take russ of the the thunder what do they have?" Is getting old too. Find another all star the rockets besides Harden. Ill wait....

Harden averaging 29pts 11 ast and 8 rebs. Yall really impressed by 2 more rebounds?

The Rockets is the best 3pt shooting team in the league! The Thunder is the worst. You do the math on who has more to do with less.

you may want to take a look at those shooting splits again.

They are not comparable. Harden is doing much better in every important shooting metric.

Harden or Kawhi are the MVPs. Russy out here stat padding for his.

44 percent isn't THAT much better than 42 percent.

35 percent isn't THAT much better than 32 percent.

Free throw percentage is virtually the same. Harden has a significant edge in true shooting percentage but if that's the only thing you're choosing to focus on in your rebuttal, have at it This is comical.

judge shooting splits without looking at True Shooting and Effective FG rates brehs.

Harden destroys Russy in both categories.

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

This reminds me of the Dajuan Wagner argument when he scored 100 or The Pats killing teams in 07...Russell can set his mind to do whatever he wants but if the opposing team doesn't offer any resistance then who is more wrong? The fukkery is leading to wins. How is this any different than Isaiah Thomas getting gassed by the "Mr 4th Quarter" moniker so he instantly starts pressing the issue during the last 12 minutes? If it leads to wins is all that should matter

with that.

Anyway, this argument isn't about who the better shooter is. It's about which player is most valuable to his team's success this year. If you had to be a great shooter to win MVP, then frankly no one outside of Golden State or Kawhi Leonard ought to have a shot at this.

 

[SCORCH]

a) he not cuz his defense is ass
b) its not an all around game if you not doing it within the natural rhythm of the game.

I dont have any agenda against Russy. Russellmania is one of the funnest players in the league but none of this goes against the blatant stat padding he is doing.

Rockets have made and attempted the most 3s but percentage wise they are middle of the pack in 3pt percentage. Yall gotta do better than this.
