    To be fair to that guy, although I believe the Brodie/Beard duo is far superior, his question is what have they done together. Technically, nothing. In that sense, any other duo is better.

    But that’s not to say he isn’t an idiot.:)

    Well, with Durant too (the best of the 3, that year), but let’s be honest - the entire premise of the question is idiotic

    so by that dude's logic, Harden and Nene ( been to the WCF ) > Jokic and murray (2nd round)...

    House is going to be key in transition. Outside of Westbrook, he is our best player at pushing the tempo and will need to keep up. His offensive production should go up.

    Are those all 3 point shooting %’s or all FGs? His shooting is so bad, either is possible.

    Westbrook averaged 11.1 rpg last year, that 6.5 more than Paul’s 4.6 rpg.

    That’s the difference between the 2nd best rebounding team (OKC) and the second worst!

    will cain is a known Rockets and Harden hater. Probably one of the most extreme/worst ones there is. Pay no attention to that little man

    Paul is a great rebounder. Much like Pat Bev they just know where to be and have a knack for getting those crucial balls.

    Russ just stands around the basket, plays no D and orders his bigs to clear a path for his rebounding.

    Edit: Ha. Was listening to the new podcast and Bimathug just said the same thing about ordering his bigs about 10 mins later after writing this.

    While you are definitely right about Russ you are being hyperbolic. He is as well an elite rebounder.

    Thats fair, I am. Its just hard to not hate him just yet, til he actually plays and proves himself on the court.

    Harden was just the 6th man back then. It was KD and WB’s team.

    Technically they went to finals and the WCF together.
