Guy!! You have played penalty to throw-in.

I didn't write any of those. You can go back and read. Chill with the Westbrook defense and read who wrote what.

calling Westbrook not a leader is like throwing shade on a man respected by Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.....

that's the kinda level Westbrook is on....
people tend to underrated him alot....

bro getting to the western conference finals ain't shit bro.ask Chris Paul one of The greatest point guards of all time.with 2 all stars the clippers were all talk,not getting past d second round.ask T- Mac a recent inductee in the hall of fame,he never got past d second round in his prime with yao ming. But James harden got there being [b]the only all star [/b]that team,yet u mention it like it's nothing.

If harden and Westbrook switched teams,okc would do better.not just an opinion but a fact Cus harden is a way better leader Dan russ,who seldom trust his team mates.harden or kd wouldn't have gotten better like they are now if they stayed in okc.

He had the help from Dwight Howard and secondly the coach system was organized to his own advantage.....

SmooshCHN:
Ok Sir, I hear you.

I don't need to talk much since you ignored all the other things written there just to defend Westbrook. I hope they keep playing ISOs especially in the playoffs. That ISO or one man mopol will carry them deep into fishing after First round exit.

that's cuz you were blaming Westbrook for making Harden, Durant and oladipo go like he was the cause were as its all business that made management allow Harden and oladipo go while Durant left on his own accord....

the current OKC coach was employed cuz of Kd, to make him stay and not Westbrook, harden was let go cuz they were looking at the salary cap, oladipo ain't better than pg13 and both were in their last year of their contract, so OKC management got the better out of pacers, so how's Westbrook the cause of all these transactions......

You are right when u say Russ has taken less shots than pg and melo.however, he ain't efficient than em despite fewer shots.

Hez got .432 in FG%, .330 in 3P% and .835 in FT% with a whooping 5.1 turn overs per game.

While melo has got .430,.348,.824 in field goals,3 points and free throws averaging 22.7 points per game and 2.3 turn overs per game.outclassing Westbrook in 3 points made

Even Paul George who we say is underperforming is averaging .448,.386,.880 in field goals made,3 points made and free throws made wit only 3.1 turn overs per game. PG outclasses Westbrook in almost all points averaged

U c my friend,Westbrook might b trying to adapt and play some team ball,good,but he ain't a leader,makes poor decisions,takes uneccesary shots with a bery high and annoying usage rating
Both melo and PG have been far more efficient than Westbrook in the last 3 games .

Westbrook numbers are cool for a point guard with high usage of Atleast 20% on a contending team and besides apart from Chris Paul and Jose Calderon, how many point guard attempts fewer TO's less than Westbrook with Atleast 25% usage and also 30min playing time......
Even LeBron who's a point forward averages 4TO's not to talk Harden, wall, and so on.....
so TO isn't an excuse.....
and what kind his fga was his second match were he made 2 out of 8 shots or so.....
maybe after 20 games, then we can have a review on OKC and besides PG13 and Melo are suppose to be his Robin while he is Batman and not the other way around.......

only time will tell bro.....

rotimi9:
the east might b weak but Ind regular season u also get to play with teams in the opposite conference .

1/4 of their 82 games are against western conference teams while the remaining 3/4, against Eastern Conference teams....
I bet they'll win up to 50% of their Eastern Conference match-up Buh they will never ever stand the chance against western conference teams except against the sun's and kings

Roland17:
After they would claim Lonzo is the best player on the Lakers roster with a lot of pressure. Anyone watching J. Clarkson, Kuzman Randle and KCP? These cats have dug the Lakers out of a huge deficit against the twin towers.

theses four are so underrated in all Lakers site around the world and am always happy when they prove our so many doubters wrong.....
I've got more faith in Randle than in any of them......
Lonzo is trying to be like magic except there's no KAJ to bail us out on this team....

rotimi9:
WTF do u mean not to loud it bro.

Oladipo scored 28,17 and 22 points in each of the pacers last 3 games.hez averaging 22 points,5 rebounds and 3 assists.Those right there are solid numbers and guess what, his team has the same record as d overrated okc team.he be a solid player now bro. It all boils down bro,Westbrook ain't a leader he makes no one better.

oladipo is in a weaker conference mehn....
how many all NBA defensive players are in the east.....
each team in the west has Atleast one except for a few, Buh in the east how many...??

SmooshCHN:
Last night Westbrook was held to 6pts and 7TOs and the team had 16asts and 17TOs in total.. That's really poor for a team but for Westbrook to reply a reporter who asked what he planned to do or focus more on distributing the ball going forward into the season when meeting other great teams, he said "Nothing will change. I'll keep playing my game." really makes you want to ask if he actually ever cared about the teams success or just his stats.

But as of now, OKC is down 13pts to the Wolves at Home and Westbrook is playing well according to the stats but what you won't see on paper is how much ISO the team has been playing till now.. Melo, PG13 basically played One on One in they're last loss to Utah and they aren't playing any different today.

That team is used to playing ISO and with the addition of Melo and PG, it only compounds the problem. The coach, staffs and players needs to sit down and think if they really want to win.

for me, Westbrook doesn't need to change a thing.....
he's perfect just the way he is......
if only John wall had his mentality......
wall would have been to the Eastern Conference finals atleast twice.....
You need a big Dawg to get to the finals.....

rotimi9:
Harden left OKC: MVP candidate
Durant left OKC: FMVP and arguably the 2nd best player in d league

Oladipo left OKC: back to looking like a solid starter

PG and melo go to OKC: can't shoot


Westbrook might b stuffing d stat sheets but he ain't a leader,he makes nobody better and very unlikely to get a ring.

Harden left and the closet he got was western conference finals...
Kd had to play with 4 other stars (Steph, Klay, feet, Iggy) before he could get his first ring and counting
....
oladipo was never going be a starter in the west so he was given an easy way out.......
PG and Melo haven't found their rhythm yet......
Westbrook even more efficient than they are.....

rotimi9:
put lebron,Durant or Chris Paul on that team bro, it would b a different case entirely. Westbrook ain't a leader,a good player but he ain't a leader.makes poor decisions and takes too many uneccessary shots

you're wrong about LeBron bro...
while at Miami, his usage was up while Wade and bosh had to reduce their usage and shot.....
same at Cleveland also that's why kyrie had to leave mehn....
One thing about basketball is that true alphas never drop their usage even if another star joins them.....
examples of true alpha include LeBron, Kobe, Magic Johnson, Melo, Westbrook, Curry......
I even salute Westbrook for him trying to accommodate two stars while still being himself......
if you check it out PG13 was killing the game by missing his shots, so Westbrook had to step up in the 4th quarter....

stuffing the stats you say...!!!!
did you know that Melo and PG13 have taken more shot than Westbrook individually......
yet Westbrook is more efficient than they are....

***food for thought

Mediapace:
Though my team is weak and i concur

meforyou1:
is it media people that choose your players? Good, media can ask for him, but it's only the manager that trained him can field him or not

baba, AbeG "PARK WELL......"

Habiodunz:

if I catch you ehn........

dabossman:
Baba, tell them o. I still believe we'll finish in the top four. We just need to pray against these constant injuries. The team still needs a lot of improvement though. Pogba is very key to this team. It's so obvious.

finish top is an understatement
of course we are gonna win the league this season....
let the haters know that also

Bibidear:

someone pls wake me up from this nightmare.......

what the hell is goin on around here........

kyase bibidear aieromon ''wht the half time status''

birdman:
Thunder sleepwalked into a blowout. These guys are legit. I think this is potentially the deadliest trio in the league. They are not pure shooters like the warriors big 3, but they can score and affect the game with their size strength and speed. Im not sure they even need a deep bench. Either paul george or melo can run with the second team and keep them potent

Their plan is for Melo to have extended run with the second team to allow more rest for Wesbrook against playoffs.....
They did that during preseason....

Love what am seeing with OKC thunders...... big three already in double figures by halftime and nice ball movement...... #legit 2nd seed in the west....

Decale:
I knew it's going to be a miracle to make playoffs but then, to lose our team's spirit with Butler and Wade gone...

Portis and Mirotic have cost us a shaky start and beginning with Raptors isn't the best form of the process.

Let's get in. #Bulls

it's safe to say bulls just lost even with raptors not scoring in the final quarter
