October 5, 201411 yr And he has sucked in those 30 games also. Just saying. It's real easy to look awesome when you are playing with HOFers. Let's not exaggerate he was coming off injury. Plus the last couple seasons he was better than all those HOF players. I don't see to many terrible pgs putting up triple double like Rondo.
October 5, 201411 yr There is no plausible argument to say Westbrook isn't one of the point guards if not the best.
October 5, 201411 yr Author Let's not exaggerate he was coming off injury. Plus the last couple seasons he was better than all those HOF players. I don't see to many terrible pgs putting up triple double like Rondo. Fine. But since those HOFers have left he has been injured and low and behold he's injured again. We have no clue at all just how good he is without KG, Pierce and Ray Ray in the lineup.
October 30, 201411 yr Ruuuuuuuusssssssss!!!!!!!! Want to take back the Rondo comments yet after tonight ? We agreed on Westbrook.
October 30, 201411 yr Author Want to take back the Rondo comments yet after tonight ? We agreed on Westbrook. No. Rondo is selfish. His trick to assists is to hold the ball until the shot clock gets low and then pass it. If they make it...assist. If they miss it... Big deal.
October 30, 201411 yr No. Rondo is selfish. His trick to assists is to hold the ball until the shot clock gets low and then pass it. If they make it...assist. If they miss it... Big deal. Did you watch the game tonight ? I've been flipping through all the games. But Rondo controlled the tempo and flow. You may not like him but when healthy he is a top point guard in the league.
October 30, 201411 yr Rondo isn't selfish on the court. He's certainly one of the top PG's in the NBA. Off the court...well I can think of better words than selfish.

You may not like him but when healthy he is a top point guard in the league. Nah. Was glued on Bucks/Hornets. Now I'm watching Russ while Kobe is playing. Shhhhh.... I like Rondo and keep in mind I said he is a top 5-7 PG in the league.
October 30, 201411 yr Says his head coach, Scotty Brooks. I'm not saying I agree. I'm not saying I disagree. It's no secret I love Russ and think he takes way way way too much misplaced blame for the Thunder's failures. I know what most will say but I am ready for the NBA. Russ is the best PG in the league. Take that. :lol2: Scott Brooks of Oklahoma City Thunder says Russell Westbrook is NBA's best point guard - ESPN PP, I am new to this thread. I would say that Russ is the most talented PG in the league - maybe ever as he has unbelievable talent and skills - not sure he is the best though. I am a Tony Parker fan but I have a different question for you. Would you break up Russ and KD if they underachieve again this year (by underachieve, I mean not at least making the West conference finals)? At some point, you need to question if they can get it done together...

At some point, you need to question if they can get it done together... No. When you look at why they haven't won it can't be blamed on their dynamic. 2012-When they made the Finals and lost to the Heat they were a full healthy team and that team had KD, Russ, Harden and Ibaka. They at least made the Finals but they lost to the Heatles. No shame in that. 2013-The next season they got rid of Harden and Russ got hurt in the first round. Thunder lose in the second round I believe. Can't blame that on their dynamic. 2014-Russ averages damn near a triple double and KD is KD and Ibaka is now a legitimate threat. Then....Ibaka gets hurt against San Antonio. Can't blame that on the dynamic. Now to start this season KD is hurt and his return is unknown. In the prediction thread I have the Thunder winning the title which I believe they are capable of doing provided they can stay healthy during the playoffs. Health in the playoffs has hurt them more than the KD/Russ dynamic. If I am OKC I lock them in for forever and I continue to build around them. Noone wins by themselves.
November 1, 201411 yr OKC cannot catch a break. Now they are down Russ and KD for an extended period of time - not good in the West...
