Correct. He was showing the Westbrook has the best raw stats out of the three. Obviously percentages don't favor him as much

I'm on BBR everyday, no way I wouldn't recognize those lines :lol:

Well PER takes into account shooting efficiency. So from an overall box score perspective, WB IS the best of the lot.

Curry can't do the stuff he does. This guy is the best player in the league this season.

I think another nickname for him is The New Bean.

I think he has a 60 point game in him. Either as a part of this roll, or sometime in the Playoffs against one of the worse defensive teams, when the media starts off again about how he's hurting the team, he's just gonna lose it and ram like 10 threes down some poor PG's throat.

Westbrook can't do the stuff Curry does either. And neither of them can do the stuff Biyombo does.

Westbrook passed Anthony Davis in the new RPM update today, up to 3rd in the league behind Harden and Curry.

The top 5 on RPM looks pretty much in line with the MVP convo, Curry, Harden, Westbrook, Davis then Lebron.

That's how you know he's great. Nobody's gonna bother to discredit him if he isn't coming for their favorite player/team.

Jeremy Lin and Austin Rivers wish that were true.

Another triple double for Westbrook. He now leads (tie) the NBA in triple doubles.

Also, he's missed 14 games

He's having a par game and has a triple double through three quarters. This dude is on a different plane right now.

F second banana he's the entire banana split.


Awesome, even on an off shooting night, and the best is the Jazz fan saying he plays like Trey Burke.

Calling this guy a second banana is a complete disservice to his brilliance. He isn't a second banana. Neither is Durant.

And, in news of some sort, people on this board still want to discredit him. SMH.

That said, this is the most fun I've had watching OKC since the finals run. By a mile. They have everything they need if KD comes back well. Russ is playing MVP style, Serge is Serge of old, Kanter is a beast inside and Ibaka's defense does go perfectly w/ him there. The bench is vastly better post trade, and looks like RJ is playing well in Detroit. Singler and DJ are better fits for OKC though, and Morrow's shooting well too. They're having a ton of fun, and its awesome to watch.

If Westbrook were only playing 25 mpg he'd still be averaging right around 20, 6 and 5. I mean cmn now...this guy is just ridiculous.
