there should be an asterisk next to westbrook's achievement with the number of uncontested defensive rebounds per game next to it.

I would agree in some cases but Memphis has no case to be mad. If they didn’t want russ to get rebounds then put out a better roster. It’s the last game of their season and they held Gasol out for “rest”.

And there it is. You have fully exposed yourself as nothing more than a hater. A bitter POS who attempts to claim the intellectual high ground while pissing all over any good thing that happens with this team. Go **** yourself ****.

Go ahead and ban me Andre.

Playoff Ferguson has arrived
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

To the general board you go!

Also, your forget about David Robinson?


david robinson had additional nuance. he had a personal beef / battle with shaq that season. which is why he did that. it was one game.

this is two years of this crap with westbrook. gunning for defensive rebounds like he does hurts the team defensively and everyone knows it. some people ignore it.

:lol:
For someone so big on proof that sure goes out the window when confirming your own biases.

That pass to George was sweet, first time I remember him creating for a teammate. Of course PG bricked the 3 anyway, but that's not on 2k.

What I have seen so far this year is he isn’t too eager to shoot like Cam Payne was his first year.

So, did Westbrook big time statpad?

Or was it a pretty organic 6pt-20reb-19ast game?

Also, how in the bleeping hell did we give up 123 points to Gasol-less, Conley-less Grizzlies?
Said in a thread about which point guards would make OKC better if they replaced Westbrook:

good article on the shaq-robinson thing: https://www.sbnation.com/2018/2/3/16965786/shaq-david-robinson-beef-history-magic-lakers-spurs-71-points

and you really want proof that westbrook makes the defense worse by chasing defensive rebounds? seriously? lets put it this way: how often does it help.

Dillion the goat Brooks. Everyone hated this guy in the draft last year.
